What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small screw or posts inserted surgically into the jawbone. Most are made from medical-grade titanium, a lightweight alloy that is highly biocompatible.
Some are made from zirconia, a strong ceramic material that can be a suitable choice in specific situations, such as when gum tissue is thinner or an individual has concerns about metal sensitivities.
Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
You are likely a candidate for implant treatment, but this procedure may not be suitable for everyone, which is why a detailed dental examination is necessary first. During this exam, Dr. Levin reviews your dental and medical history.
Below are some of the criteria that we must evaluate during this consultation.
Gum and Bone Health
You must have strong, healthy gums with no sign of active gum disease. You also need to have a reasonable quantity of strong, healthy jawbone to support your dental implants.
If you have active gum disease, we will need to treat this first. Inadequate jawbone quantity and quality can be increased with dental bone grafting options if needed. Alternatively, we may recommend an implant treatment that helps avoid bone grafting, such as All-on-Four, where the implants are inserted to utilize your jawbone most effectively, where it is strongest and thickest.
