At the Cosmetic and Dental Implant Center, we have helped hundreds of patients in Orange County regain their comfort and confidence with dental implants. Dr. Trinh Nguyen and Dr. Tuan Nguyen have specialized training and expertise in dental implants and offer all phases of treatment, from placement to restoration.
Even if you have been told you aren't a good candidate, procedures like bone grafting and sinus lifts may make it possible to get an implant in the future. Read on to learn more!
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
The quality and quantity of the jawbone where we wish to place the implant are vital to the procedure's success. For example, the upper back jaw is considered the most challenging area to place an implant due to insufficient bone quantity and its proximity to the sinuses.
In this case, our dentists recommend a procedure called sinus augmentation to ensure that they can place your implant in the well-developed bone.
Jawbone deformities can also leave you with inadequate jawbone for implant placement. To correct this, our dentists use bone grafting to modify the ridge. After the bone graft heals, our dentists can perform successful implant surgery.
