Candidates

Dental implants should be the only option for people in good general oral health who have lost one or more teeth due to periodontal disease or an injury. Candidates for dental implants need to have healthy gums and adequate bone support. An evaluation by your dentist or a specialist will help determine whether dental implants are right for you.
Dental implants eliminate the shaving down of the natural teeth in order to fit a bridge since dental implants support themselves due to the replacement of the root.
