Am I too old for dental implants?
No, age is not a barrier to dental implants. Patients in their 60s, 70s, and even 80s can be excellent candidates. Suitability depends on overall health and bone density. At Elonix Dental Clinic, we assess your individual needs to determine if implants are right for you.
Is it safe for seniors to get dental implants?
Dental implants are safe for older adults with well-managed health conditions. The risks are low and can be minimized with proper care. Our experienced team ensures your safety throughout the process.
What are the benefits of dental implants for older adults?
Implants offer enhanced comfort, improved ability to eat, and a natural appearance. They can significantly boost your quality of life. See the life-changing results we've achieved for our patients.
What if I have bone loss or wear dentures?
Bone loss doesn't automatically disqualify you from getting implants. Bone grafting can rebuild the jawbone to support implants. We also offer solutions for patients transitioning from dentures to implant-supported prostheses. Learn more about our dental implants here.
How long does the process take, and what is recovery like?
The process can take several months, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few days of surgery. We provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
