Although we recommend that you get a dental implant sooner rather than later, it is possible to get it years after you’ve lost the tooth. The reason is, the longer you leave the space in your mouth means you will have degradation of the surrounding gum and bone structures. Even if it’s been 1, 5, or 10 years after the tooth was lost or extracted, it is still possible that you are eligible for a dental implant.
