Dental Implants Candidates

Dental implants are permanent, natural-looking replacements for missing teeth that can help you improve chewing and speaking, not to mention the appearance of your smile. The experienced dentists at Scottsdale Smile Center can create custom-designed, precise teeth restorations for patients looking to take advantage of this remarkable treatment. Our practice utilizes the advanced Cone Beam X-Ray technology in the dental implant planning stage to take a 3-D map of your entire mouth – allowing us to provide the most accurate and precise fit for your dental implants.

If you are considering dental implants, the following information can help you get a better idea of the qualifications necessary for the procedure. Candidates for dental implants include:

• Patients who are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth
• Patients who are looking for a permanent alternative to dentures
• Patients who have adequate jawbone density to accommodate the implant
• Patients who do not have certain conditions or diseases, such as uncontrolled diabetes, which may affect proper healing after implant placement

For many patients who may not be candidates for a full dental implant procedure, there are a variety of alternatives—including implant supported dentures and dental bridges—that can provide excellent results. During your initial consultation, our dentist will talk with you about your options and determine which treatment may be best for your needs.
