Who are the right candidates for dental implants?
Anyone who has lost one or more teeth or even all of their teeth is a good candidate for implant placement. Also, the specialist dentist makes sure of the health of the gums and jaw before implanting the teeth with this method. If the applicant for a dental implant suffers from one of the gum diseases or jaw bone resorption, the specialist dentist will perform the initial treatments and then start the dental implant work.
