Most adults missing one or more teeth are good candidates for dental implants. A few factors help determine candidacy:
Adequate jawbone density to support an implant, or willingness to undergo bone grafting first.
Healthy gums, free of active periodontal disease.
Overall good general health, as healing ability affects implant success.
Commitment to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits after placement.
The only way to know for certain is a consultation with Dr. Tapia, who will review your dental and medical history along with imaging of your jaw.
