Implants are possible at an older age
Age is not the criterion — current teeth, bone and general health are.
“Am I too old for implants?” is a question we hear often. What decides whether implants are possible is not age, but the current condition of the teeth, the amount of jawbone and general health.
The oldest patient to receive implant treatment at Greenmall Dental was 93. For older patients we first review medications and medical conditions carefully, and plan a method that places less burden on the body.
Conversely, for those under 18 whose jaws are still growing, it is safer to delay implant treatment.
