Q: What is the best age for dental implants?
A: The jawbones are not fully developed until at least the late teen years, and sometimes into early adulthood. This means younger people are not ideal candidates for dental implants. On the other hand, there is really no upper age limit for implants, and it is fairly common for people in their 80’s to have implants installed.
Q: How do I care for dental implants?
A: Good care for dental implants includes brushing at least twice a day, using a soft-bristled toothbrush. Flossing is also recommended, and an occasional mouthwash will be beneficial.
Q: How successful are dental implants?
A: It will depend on the specific location where an implant was installed, but speaking generally, the success rate of a dental implant is higher than 98%. With normal dental hygiene, implants can last an entire lifetime for the patient.
Q: What are the advantages of dental implants?
A: Implants function just like normal teeth would, and they often last a lifetime. They prevent bone loss, and avoid the possibility of premature aging of the facial area. They can also help you avoid the development of gum disease.
Q: What is a dental implant procedure like?
A: It may be necessary to build up your jawbone so it can support an implant. If that is not necessary, an anesthetic will be administered and then an incision will be made in your gums. Then holes will be drilled into the jawbone and a post for the implant will be installed. After the implant is installed, it will begin fusing with the jawbone, and when that process is complete – usually after several months – an abutment will be installed so it can support the new tooth or crown.
Q: How much do dental implants cost per implant?
A: For most patients, the cost per implant will be in the neighborhood of $1,500 to $2,000, but it could go as high as $4,000. It may cost more depending on the part of the country you live in, and the cost may also increase if you need jawbone supplementation.
