However, because of the many benefits that come with permanent prosthetics, it can be impossible to overlook them as a viable solution. But how can an individual know if they are a good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.granddentalfranklinpark.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implant candidate<\/a>? Here are four qualities every professional looks for when recommending this type of restorative treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Signs of Chronic Disease<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic health conditions can increase a person\u2019s risk of dental implant failure. Unfortunately, the success rate of placement significantly decreases, causing many individuals to spend additional time and money on replacements over time. Without proper management of these conditions, it\u2019s unlikely these permanent prosthetics will remain in place for 30+ years. This is why it\u2019s imperative that interested individuals either do not possess signs of chronic disease or are willing to work closely with their physicians to keep it under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Healthy Jawbone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For dental implants in Franklin Park to remain stable and firmly in place, they must have a strong jawbone that serves as the foundation. Without proper density within this structure, implant posts can become loose or never fuse during the recovery process. As a result, the prosthetics can fail. By allowing a trusted specialist to complete a thorough examination to determine the density of one\u2019s jawbone, they can decide if bone grafting is necessary before receiving dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Willing to Maintain Healthy Teeth and Gums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once dental implants are firmly in place, it\u2019s essential for individuals to practice optimal oral hygiene while at home. This means brushing teeth at least twice a day, flossing at least once before bed, and rinsing with an ADA-approved mouthwash. Non-abrasive toothpaste is required to avoid scratching and dulling the artificial tooth material, but to keep one\u2019s prosthetics and restorations void of damage or disease, oral hygiene is crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Not Smoke<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Individuals who smoke and choose to receive dental implants can expect their artificial teeth to reap the consequences. Unfortunately, the risk of gum disease significantly increases when a person smokes, which is detrimental to permanent prosthetics. Should peri-implantitis develop, it can cause the posts to fail over time. If a person smokes before undergoing oral surgery, it will take longer to heal and make the osseointegration process nearly impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who want dental implants are strongly encouraged to give up smoking as well as the use of tobacco products altogether. Excessive alcohol consumption is also strongly discouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When meeting with a local specialist to discuss candidacy for dental implants, it\u2019s important to remember that these qualifications as well as others will be considered. Most adults are capable of receiving these permanent prosthetics, but the stipulations required must be maintained to ensure successful results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Grand Dental \u2013 Franklin Park<br><\/strong>At Grand Dental \u2013 Franklin Park, our periodontal specialist believes in the importance of healthy smiles.
