Do you know implants are successful at old age with diabetes ?
Yes see this story of 71 yr old with diabetes
With succesful follow up of 2 yrs
"Doctor, I've been using removable dentures for 5 years. I don't want them anymore."
At 71 years of age, with fluctuating diabetes and an HbA1c of 10.5%, this patient's journey was not an easy one.
Before starting treatment, we had a detailed discussion about the importance of controlling blood sugar levels. Healing, long-term success, and overall oral health depend greatly on maintaining diabetes under control.
Her response was simple and determined: "I will take care. I do enjoy a little dessert sometimes, but I make sure I keep a check on it."
Today, after one year of follow-up, her dedication has paid off.
She can now chew confidently, smile comfortably, and enjoy her meals without the limitations of removable dentures.
Age is not a barrier. Commitment to health is what makes the difference.
Every successful treatment is a partnership between the doctor and the patient. 🤝
