How many teeth you need replaced<\/h2>\nDental implants are quite versatile and can be used to replace any number of teeth, so a patient\u2019s particular needs will have a direct influence on how long the procedure will take. As you can imagine, getting a single tooth replaced is much simpler than restoring an entire arch. The more implants you need, the more involved your placement procedure will be and the more healing time you will need afterward. Fortunately, this won\u2019t really affect the end result.\n<h2>2. If you need a bone graft<\/h2>\nIn order for a dental implant to be safely placed, a patient needs an adequate amount of healthy jawbone. This is not always the case for patients who have been missing teeth for a long time, as tooth loss directly contributes to bone degeneration. If a patient doesn\u2019t have a strong enough jawbone to support implants, a dentist will suggest that they undergo a bone graft first.\n\nThis is a simple procedure where, using either some of the patient\u2019s own bone or a bone grafting material, the jaw can actually be built up and strengthened in order to make it viable for implants. This will need to happen before any other part of the implant process, so it will add to the overall timeline.\n<h2>3. The state of your health<\/h2>\nBoth your oral and overall health are factors your dentist in Ormond Beach will consider when giving you implants as well. If a patient has gum disease, for example, this could compromise an implant if placed, so a dentist will work to fix this problem before proceeding. Also, if a patient has an underlying medical condition, such as diabetes or a bleeding disorder, this will need to be thoroughly controlled before any implants can be placed. All in all, your dentist\u2019s goal is to make sure you have the best possible chance of success when it comes to your implants, even if that involves taking a little extra time.\n\nWhile these complicating factors might make it take longer to get your complete smile back, they have to be considered. When they are taken into account, the success of your implants is almost guaranteed, and it will also save you from having to get them fixed in the future. As a patient, the best thing you can do is follow your dentist\u2019s advice during the process, and with that, it\u2019s just a matter of time before you see your beautiful smile in the mirror again.\n\n<strong><u>About the Author <\/u><\/strong>\n\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drbc.com\/dr-andrew-nawrocki.html\">Dr. Andrew Nawrocki<\/a> is a general, cosmetic, and implant dentist based in Ormond Beach, FL.
