FAQs
Many adults with missing teeth may qualify, but an exam is needed to evaluate gum health, bone support, and overall oral health.
Treatment length varies from patient to patient. Healing time, the number of implants, and whether additional procedures are needed can all affect the timeline.
Implants should be brushed and flossed carefully, just like natural teeth. Routine checkups and cleanings are also important.
That depends on your needs. Implants often provide more stability and comfort, while dentures may still be appropriate for some patients.
