Before you start any dental treatment, your dentist will make sure you qualify for the procedure. Regardless of the service, they want to establish that it is necessary and will be successful. For instance, missing teeth isn\u2019t the only qualification for dental implants<\/a>. In fact, this complex tooth-replacing solution comes with several requirements and traits for the patient. In other words, here are the qualities a good candidate must have to get dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

A Good Candidate Is Generally Healthy.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a body part, the mouth is affected by other systems, organs, and areas; the reverse is also true. Because of this, you may not qualify for dental implants if you have certain conditions. For instance, in addition to interfering with your blood sugar levels, mismanaged or unaddressed diabetes impedes your body\u2019s ability to fight infection. As a result, you may easily contract a gum disease that can cause your implants to fail called peri-implantitis. You don\u2019t have to be in perfect health, but you need to be free of or be properly managing certain conditions to make dental implants a possibility for your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Good Candidate Has Mostly Strong Oral Health.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A treatment has very little chance of success if the area is already infected or struggling to stay healthy. This principle applies to dental implants and your mouth. If you have an oral infection like gum disease before you have dental implants, you run a high risk of failure. Obviously, if you want dental implants, your smile can still have flaws, but the overall state of your mouth should be healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Good Candidate Has a Decent Amount of Jawbone.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The strength of implant-retained replacements lies in the bond between the jawbone and the implant posts. Without sufficient jawbone tissue, your prosthetic teeth will not remain anchored or stable. However, thanks to innovations in dental implant materials and methods, namely All-on-4, even those with low jawbone density can still receive implants, but you still need enough to support your prosthetic teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Good Candidate Is Committed to Take Care of the Implants.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Replacing missing teeth doesn\u2019t clear you from responsibility for your oral health. In fact, if you neglect your implants, failure at some point is inevitable. Bacteria and plaque cannot infect the titanium and porcelain restorations, but they can still harm your gums and jawbone. As a result, you should continue habits that stop bacteria\u2019s power in your mouth, such as brushing and flossing daily as well as visiting your dentist regularly, and try to end habits that can encourage oral bacterial growth, such as smoking, vaping, using other tobacco, and consuming too much sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps looking at this list of qualities, you feel discouraged because you don\u2019t have all of them. Don\u2019t despair! Your dentist can help you get into a better position to receive the ultimate in tooth replacement. Making sure you meet these requirements will ensure a strong, complete smile that stays successful for decades!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
