If you have good general health then dental implants will almost certainly work for you. However, habits such as heavy drinking or smoking can increase the number of problems associated with initial healing and thereafter may negatively influence the long-term health of gum and bone surrounding each implant. Remaining teeth might also be compromised making treatment planning less certain.
Some dentists will decline to place implants if smoking cannot be reduced or given up altogether.
If you have any other complicated medical problems that you think might affect your suitability for implants then please speak to us, we will be able to get your situation quickly assessed - it is rare to have health problems that prevent the use of dental implants.

Dental Implant Information
During the last 30 years the use of dental implants has
changed dentistry beyond recognition. Implants are no longer considered experimental
and it is equally rare to come across situations where they cannot be used
at all.
Following is a an extract of frequently asked questions about dental implants and associated subjects such as bone grafting which
is meant to serve as an explanation of what can be quite a complex subject.
During the period after the new teeth are fitted,
the success of each treatment stage will be the main factor determining
how the implants are performing. Once the implants and surrounding soft
tissues are seen to be healthy and the new teeth comfortable and correctly
adjusted, it is the quality of your home care and willingness to present
for regular maintenance reviews that will have most influence on how
long they will last.
When poorly cared for, implants will develop a covering of hard and soft
deposits (calculus and plaque) which is very similar to that found on
neglected natural teeth. Untreated, these deposits can lead to gum infection,
bleeding, soreness and general discomfort, just as can occur around natural
teeth. It could probably be said that implants much like teeth will last
for as long as you can keep them clean. Well maintained implants placed
into adequate bone can be expected to last for many years and probably
for your lifetime. However, just as you would expect conventional crowns,
bridges and fillings to need occasional repairs or replacements during
their lifetime, your implant-supported teeth may also have similar maintenance
requirements over theirs.
How
long does treatment take?
For routine cases, from the time of implant placement
to the time of placing the first teeth, treatment times can vary between
3 - 12 months. The availability of better bone can be used to decrease
treatment time, whilst more time and care must be taken with poorer bone,
which can therefore extend treatment times beyond six months. If there
is no reason to shorten the duration of your treatment then be prepared
to wait - nobody loses an implant from being patient and allowing nature
to take its course.
