😁 Thinking about dental implants, but not sure if you’re a candidate? 🦷✨
The great news: most adults with missing teeth can get dental implants!

Here is what makes a good candidate:
✔️ Healthy Gums: Free from severe gum (periodontal) disease.
✔️ Adequate Jawbone: Enough bone density to anchor and support the implant securely. ✔️ Good Overall Health: Controlled health conditions (like diabetes) and good healing ability.
✔️ Non-Smokers: Or willing to pause smoking, as it can slow down bone healing.

Even if you’ve had bone loss or missing teeth for years, options like bone grafting can often make implants possible!

🦷 Considering dental implants to restore your smile? Unlike dentures, dental implants fuse directly with your jawbone, acting like natural roots so they never slip or click. It takes a few months of healing, but the result is a permanent, natural-looking and natural-feeling smile!
