What Makes a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

A good candidate for dental implants should have healthy gums and adequate bone density to support the implant. They should also be in good overall health and have a commitment to maintaining good oral hygiene. Candidates with certain health conditions or habits like smoking may require additional evaluation or treatment before being considered for dental implants. The specific qualifications may vary depending on the individual case, and a dental professional will evaluate each patient to determine their candidacy for dental implants.
