It is a question we hear quite often at NB Dental, usually asked with a bit of hesitation:"Am I too old to consider dental implants".

The short answer is that your age is rarely the deciding factor. When our team assesses whether dental implants are a suitable option for you, we look at
your overall health and the condition of your jawbone rather than the date on your birth certificate. Many mature adults find that implants could improve their speech and may allow them to enjoy the foods they love again.

As long as your general health is stable and your jaw has sufficient bone density to support the implant, treatment is often entirely possible. If bone density is low, there are often routine techniques we can discuss to help prepare the area. We believe everyone deserves to eat comfortably and speak with ease, no matter their stage of life. If you are considering options to replace missing teeth or stabilize loose dentures, please feel free to reach out to our Alton team for a factual, relaxed conversation.

Let’s look at a common myth regarding what happens next.

Myth: Losing a tooth only affects the gap in your smile.

Fact: Your jawbone relies on the continuous stimulation from chewing to stay healthy and maintain its density. When a tooth is missing, the surrounding bone can naturally begin to shrink or resorb over time.

This gradual change can alter the support for your neighbouring teeth and potentially impact your natural facial structure. The good news is that modern restorative options, such as dental implants, act like the root of a natural tooth. This can help support the jawbone and maintain its strength.

If you have a missing tooth and want to understand your options, our
team at NB Dental is here to discuss your choices in a relaxed, factual environment.
