Maywood Children and Family Dentistry, located in Maywood, CA, specializes in providing dental implant services to restore the smiles of our patients with missing teeth. But how do we determine if dental implants are the right solution for you? Here are some factors that our experienced team considers during a consultation:
Overall oral health: Our team evaluates your dental history, including any existing dental work, gum disease, or tooth decay, to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants. Good oral health is crucial for successful dental implant placement and a long-lasting result.
Bone density: The success of dental implants depends on the quality and quantity of your jawbone. Our team assesses your bone density to determine if it is sufficient to support the implant. If the bone is not strong enough, we may recommend bone grafting or other procedures to improve bone density before implant placement.
Medical history: Certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune diseases, can affect your candidacy for dental implants. We review your medical history to ensure that dental implants are safe for you.
Age: While dental implants are a great option for most adults, young patients who are still growing may need to wait until their jaw is fully developed before receiving implants. Our team considers your age and developmental stage to determine if it is appropriate to proceed with dental implant treatment.
If you are deemed a good candidate for dental implants, our team will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your specific needs. We will discuss the implant procedure, as well as any pre- or post-operative instructions, so you can feel comfortable and confident throughout the process.
