Dental Implant FAQs
You can get dental implants to replace all of your teeth. However, most patients find it more financially feasible to have one implant that supports a bridge of several teeth or even full denture arches.
Even though most patients are good candidates for Dental Implants in Portland, some patients may have medical concerns that would prevent them from properly healing after the procedure. For example, individuals with immune system disorders or diabetes may not be the best candidates.
With the proper care and oral hygiene habits, dental implants can last a lifetime. However, the crowns, bridges, or dentures mounted on the implants may wear down over time and need to be replaced.
