If you’re missing teeth, there’s a strong chance you’re a candidate for dental implants. Most people qualify as long as they’re in good general health and don’t have underlying conditions that impair healing.
Our board-certified oral surgeon, Dr. Ryan Hambleton, has the advanced training to successfully place implants, even in complex cases. At your consultation in Highlands Ranch, CO, we’ll assess your overall readiness to ensure the best outcome for your renewed smile.
Healthy gums are essential for the long-term success of your dental implants. As part of your consultation, we’ll check for signs of gum disease or infection and help you get them under control if needed. A strong foundation of healthy soft tissues supports better healing and long-term implant stability. If you have periodontal issues, we can work with you to restore your gum health before treatment.
Dental implants get their unparalleled strength and stability from their bond to the jawbone, so plenty of healthy bone volume is critical to the long-term success of your implants. If you’ve been missing teeth for a while or have a history of facial trauma that injured the bone, we may need to rebuild the bone before proceeding. We’ll use advanced imaging to assess bone density and may recommend bone grafting if additional support is needed. This step ensures your implants are anchored securely for lasting results.
Medical conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune disorders can affect your body’s ability to heal after dental implant surgery. We’ll review your health history to ensure that nothing prevents a safe procedure and a successful outcome. Most people can still proceed with implants with proper planning and coordination with their medical providers.
Overall wellness is key in determining whether people are good dental implant candidates. First, we want to ensure you’re physically well enough to tolerate the surgery and recovery. If you’re a non-smoker, follow a healthy lifestyle, and don’t have chronic infections or immune deficiencies, your chances of a smooth recovery are much higher. Good hygiene habits and a commitment to keeping up with implant maintenance are also important for long-term success.
At Highlands Ranch Oral & Facial Surgery, we focus on personalized care that puts your health, comfort, and smile goals first. Every dental implant treatment is tailored to your unique needs using advanced imaging, surgical technology, and proven techniques.
