As with any medical procedure, each patient is different. Our dentist will carefully evaluate your oral health and medical status to determine if you are a good candidate for this procedure. For any oral surgery procedure, it is essential for patients to be in good general health with well-controlled degenerative diseases, regardless of age. However, success rates are compromised for individuals who smoke, have untreated periodontal disease, or are undergoing bisphosphonate therapy for conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. Smoking cessation is strongly advised before and after surgery to improve outcomes. Patients with periodontal disease should receive appropriate treatment and maintenance to ensure a healthy oral environment conducive to successful implant placement and integration. Special considerations and close monitoring are necessary for those receiving bisphosphonate therapy to mitigate the risk of complications such as medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). A comprehensive preoperative assessment, collaboration between healthcare providers, and diligent postoperative care are vital to optimize the safety and success of oral implant surgery for patients with these risk factors.
