We are excited to help you replace a missing tooth or teeth with dental implants, but we also want to ensure that you are a good candidate for this operation. It is important to have healthy gums and enough bone in your jaw to anchor the implants.
We also encourage our patients to look at dental implants as an important commitment to brush and floss daily around them. If you are a smoker, we suggest you stop the habit before taking on dental implants. Because smoking can slow your mouth's ability to heal, it will hinder the chances of a successful operation.
