Most healthy adults missing one or more teeth are candidates for dental implants. Dr. Nadim Haidar is a board-certified specialist in oral implantology, so even complex cases — including patients who've been told elsewhere that they aren't candidates — can often be treated right here at Lasting Smiles Dental Care.
Implants need enough healthy bone to anchor into. If bone loss has occurred, a bone graft can often build up the site so treatment can move forward.
Healthy gums, free of active periodontal disease, give implants the best long-term foundation to succeed.
Conditions like uncontrolled diabetes can affect healing, but most patients with well-managed health conditions do very well with implants.
Smoking can slow healing and affect long-term success, so we'll talk through this with you as part of your treatment plan.
You don't need to have all the answers before you come in. Dr. Haidar will review your dental and health history, take the necessary images, and walk you through whether implants make sense — and if so, which approach fits your situation, from a single tooth to a full-arch solution.
The best way to know if implants are right for you is a consultation with Dr. Haidar. We'll evaluate your oral health and walk you through your options, with no pressure and no guesswork.
