2. Dental implants have revolutionized tooth replacement
for those who have lost teeth due to disease or injury.

3. However, a number of factors affect whether dental
implants are recommended for your individual needs.

4. Family dentists can do a preliminary assessment of
whether you would be a good candidate for
dental implants.

5. General Health

6. Cosmetic dentists generally assess the overall health of
patients before they begin any kind of dental procedure.

7. These questions allow the dental professional to
ascertain whether any issue exists that could affect
tooth health, gum condition or the treatment itself.

8. Getting dental implants require that you be in good
general health and not have any medical problem that
might affect the procedures necessary to place the
implants and heal gum tissues.

9. Condition of the Bones

10. The condition of the bones that make up the tooth
socket also has an important bearing on the ability to
hold an implant.

11. Bone density can be reduced by age or tooth loss. If you
do not have enough bone to hold an implant, your
dentist may have to graft on new bone.

12. This process can add additional time to the implant
process, but it will ensure that the implant
holds securely.

13. Gum Disease

14. If you have long-standing, untreated gum disease, you
should not get dental implants.

15. Implants require healthy tissue to form around the
implant after placement.

16. You should first get the gum condition treated, and then
talk to your dental professional about receiving implants.

17. Existing Systemic Disease

18. If you have been diagnosed with certain systemic
diseases, they may affect your ability to achieve success
with dental implants.

19. Family dentists may inquire whether you have diabetes,
leukemia or cancer, which can all affect the ability of the
tissues to heal around the implant.

20. If you have received radiation for cancer, it may also
affect healing. Also, individuals with connective tissue
disease, hemophilia and immune system disorders are
not good candidates for dental implants.

21. Pregnancy

22. Most dental experts believe that it is better to wait until
after the birth before doing implant treatment.

23. Diagnostic and antibiotic treatments that normally occur
during implant procedures may have a detrimental
impact on the fetus.

24. It is much safer to wait until after the birth before
proceeding with implant treatment.

25. Smoking and Alcoholism

26. People who smoke have reduced circulation to the mouth
tissues, which can affect healing when placing implants.

27. You can help to ensure success with your implants by
quitting smoking before your treatments begin.

28. Similarly, excessive use of alcohol or drugs can also affect
the ability of tissues to heal properly.

29. Getting treatment for this condition before treatment will
help to achieve a successful outcome with the implants.

30. Motivated To Care For the Implants

31. In many ways, the same care the patient must do to
preserve their natural teeth is required to care for
dental implants.

32. Daily brushing and flossing, as well as regular visits to the
dentists, are required to ensure that the gums remain
healthy and the implants remain stable.

33. If implants become damaged, the patient must have
them repaired or replaced.

34. Most patients find that dental implants are good
replacements for natural teeth.

35. Your dentist will provide a thorough evaluation of your
dental and overall health to ensure a successful
implant experience.
