Good oral and overall health<\/strong><\/p>\n During your consultation appointment, our dentist will examine your teeth, gums and jawbone carefully and ask you many questions about your oral and overall health. This is to determine whether your body will be able to heal properly after the surgery.

Last but not least, patients with gum disease or other oral health issues should have them treated before implant surgery. This is because, if left untreated, they can hinder the healing process.<\/p>\n What if I don\u2019t have enough jawbone?<\/strong><\/p>\n While as a general rule your jaw needs to be strong enough to support the dental implants, patients with deteriorated jawbones can still take advantage of this treatment. Modern implant techniques such All-on-4 implants, allow patients to have multiple teeth replaced with dental implants, even if their jawbone has greatly deteriorated.
