Dental implants are an excellent solution for replacing missing teeth, but not every patient is a suitable candidate. Certain factors must be evaluated to ensure the treatment's success and long-term stability.
Patients are assessed based on:
- Bone Density: Implants require a strong foundation. Patients with insufficient bone may need bone grafting or sinus lifting to enhance jaw strength. Example: A patient at Dent Health Istanbul with severe bone loss successfully underwent a bone graft procedure before implant placement.
- General Health: Conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or osteoporosis may affect the healing process and require careful management.
- Lifestyle Habits: Smoking delays healing and reduces implant success rates. Quitting smoking before and after the procedure significantly improves outcomes.
Dental implants are transformative but require careful evaluation. At Dent Health Istanbul, our specialists conduct comprehensive assessments to determine eligibility and develop tailored treatment plans for every patient.
