Why is gum health so important before having dental implants?
Gum health around all your teeth is essential before considering dental implants to replace missing teeth. Without it you may be risking gum disease around your dental implant. We make sure you have gum health, or return you to gum health if necessary, prior to implant treatment. Having a Periodontist involved in your implant treatment may also help you to avoid losing any other teeth to gum disease and save some teeth that were going to be replaced with a dental implant.
