How do I know if I am a good candidate for dental implants?

Booking an Implant consultation will allow your dentist to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants.

During your consultation, your dentist will review your dental and medical history, take digital scans or x-rays and assess your jawbone density to determine if dental implants are appropriate for your needs.

Dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth, but suitability depends on several factors. Common indicators that implants may be right for you include:

  • One or more missing teeth
  • Healthy gums
  • Sufficient jawbone to support the implant
  • Overall good oral and general health

Even if bone amount or density is reduced, procedures like bone grafting can often prepare the jaw to support implants successfully. Your dentist will explain whether you need grafting and how it integrates with the implant treatment plan.

If you feel you would benefit from dental implants, we welcome you to book an appointment over the phone or online so we can give you the answers you need.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
