Are All Implants Successful?
Many variables must be considered to obtain successful implants.
First, the patient must be healthy and possess adequate healing powers. An uncontrolled diabetic, for example, has less potential for healing, which could be quite a problem.
Second, accurate diagnosis must be made, and the proper implant selected and installed correctly.
Third, it must be treated with care by the patient and the dentist. If either forgets diligent care, a problem may arise. Sometimes, in spite of the Implantologist and the patients’ best efforts, an implant may fail. If this happens the implant will be replaced by another one.
When an implant is functioning successfully, you should not be aware of its presence. You should experience no pain and be able to eat all kinds of food without any difficulty. Once we have determined you are a suitable candidate for implants your chances of success will be excellent.
