Are You A Good Candidate For Dental Implant Surgery?
The ideal candidate to have dental implant surgery is one who has good oral health. Enough bone in your jaw is needed to help support the implant. Those with healthy gum tissues free from periodontal disease are the best candidates for dental implant surgery. Dental implants are made up of titanium and metal fixtures that are placed within the jawbone with great precision. They provide a highly biocompatible surface, which enables the bone to completely fill in and provide long-term stability.
Dental implants are intimately connected with the gum tissues and underlying bone in the mouth. The periodontist is a dental expert who specializes in dental implants.
Our dental implant surgery team at All on Four Dental on Long Island will do the procedure. They have the special knowledge and training facilities that you need to have your implants look and feel just like your own. Our team of dentists will work together to make your dream come true for having beautiful teeth.
Once the implants are in place, they also require the same care as you would give to natural teeth. To keep your implant clean and plaque-free, brushing and flossing still apply. After treatment, we will work closely with you to develop the best care plan for you.
Periodic follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor your implant, surrounding teeth, and gums to make sure that they are healthy. Recovery from dental implant procedures depends on several factors, including the various procedures required to complete your treatment.
However, it is generally recognized that once an implant has been placed, maintaining diligent oral hygiene habits is required to ensure proper fusing of the implant and bone structure. If cared for properly, an implant restoration can remain in place for more than forty years.

Dental Implant Surgery requires Good Jaw bone!
Implant surgery replaces the tooth roots with metal posts that look and feel like teeth and replaces missing or damaged teeth with artificial ones that look and feel like natural teeth.
Implant surgery is a great alternative to dentures and bridges that don’t fit. In addition, it can be an option when natural roots aren’t available for building dentures or replacing teeth.
How the procedure is done depends on the type of dental implant and the condition of your jawbone. Implant surgery may involve multiple procedures. Implants can provide a solid foundation for your teeth and are a great solution. However, the healing process around the implant must occur first. This bone healing process takes time and can take several months.
