Am I a Candidate?

Dental implants can be placed for most adults who are in good to moderate health no matter what your age. Certain medical conditions may affect the success of implant treatment so be sure to discuss your full medical history with us as we consider your treatment options.

In adolescents the state of the art is to wait until their jaws have stopped growing before we place implants to replace missing teeth.  However, in these same young people,  sometimes orthodontic treatment can be more easily accomplished by using temporary implants to help with orthodontic tooth movement instead of using outside head gear or other methods of anchorage.

Every patient is different and many times there is more than one option available to treat your problem. That's why we offer free consultations so you can learn about all your choices before you make a decision.

Please call or contact us through this web site and ask for your free consultation so you can learn the options, benefits and risks to see if tooth replacement with implants is right for you.
