Why Consider Dental Implants?
Dental implants can be the ideal option for various reasons:
Missing teeth due to decay, trauma, or extractions
Challenges with eating, chewing, or speaking
Reduced confidence and self-esteem due to an incomplete smile
Bone loss in the jaw area
Desire to avoid traditional dentures or bridges
Evaluating Your Eligibility for Dental Implants
-
Gum Health
Healthy gums are critical for successful dental implants. If you have gum disease, our team at Rice Dentures will recommend appropriate treatment to ensure your gums are healthy enough for the implant procedure.
-
Bone Volume
Sufficient bone density is required to anchor dental implants securely. If there's insufficient bone, we may suggest bone grafting or other solutions to strengthen your jawbone, providing a stable base for the implants.
-
Systemic Health Conditions
Systemic health conditions, like uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune disorders, can affect implant success. Our team will assess your medical history and consult with your healthcare providers to determine the best course of action for your implant treatment.
-
General Health
Your overall physical health plays a significant role in the success of dental implants. While age isn't typically an obstacle, lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol consumption, and certain medications can influence your suitability for implants.
At Rice Dentures in Childersburg, AL, our experienced team conducts a thorough evaluation to determine your candidacy for dental implants. We are dedicated to providing personalized care to meet your specific dental needs. If implants aren't suitable, we'll discuss other treatment options to restore your smile and oral function.
