People lose one or more teeth for a wide variety of reasons, including infection, gum disease, an accident or injury. When natural teeth are removed, many problems occur.

The remaining teeth shift, rotate and become crooked. An improper bite will develop, making it very difficult to chew food properly. Spaces and gaps between teeth may cause embarrassment, problems with speech, and lack of self-esteem. Dental implants, when properly placed, can restore missing teeth, thereby eliminating these potential problems. People who have teeth replaced with dental implants report better ability to chew food and eat properly, renewed confidence while speaking, and better.

Only Severe medical conditions and uncontrolled gum disease would prevent anyone from being a candidate for Implant dentistry.
