Am I Too Old For Dental Implants In Northern Ireland
This said one of the most common things we hear here at Belmore Dental Studio & Implant Clinic when talking to our older patients is that they feel they are ‘just to old’. But is this really true?
Tooth loss has many consequences all of which can give us an older appearance:
-
Health problems
-
Sagging jaw and down in the mouth appearance
-
Bone re-absorption
-
Misaligned teeth/jaw
-
Eating and digestion issues
-
Speech problems
-
Loss of confidence
Filling a gap in your smile with Dental Implants therefore is not just about your age but the many benefits it will bring to your life for years to come. Such as a younger appearance, improved chewing, helping to preserve your natural teeth, better oral hygiene and offering a long term solution.
Provided a patient is in good general health and has sufficient bone to place an implant age does not pose a problem. Even where bone levels are low alternatives such as mini implants or bone grafting procedures can be performed to make treatment possible.
What we are sure off is that in our elder patients who have undertaken implant treatments they have found improvements to their lives giving them back their, smile, confidence ability to chew and freedom from embarrassment. You are never too old to have dental implants and the benefits to your life will outweigh the costs in the long run.
