Q. following some failed (and negligent) dental treatment i require an implant in the lower left second molar area. i’ve had some consultations with implant surgeons, some of whom have told me it’s not usually desireable to place implants in this area. i’m interested to know if you feel it is usually possible to place implants in this area? if so, how many have you personally placed? and what success rate do you have for placements in this lower second molar region? many thanks

A. we show very high success rates for implants in the lower molar region. Around 98-99% over 10 years. This is all dependent on the amount of bone tou have available so we would scan the jaws without CT scanner prior to treatement so you have a clearer idea of your long-term success.
Let me know if you would like to come to see me, my e-mail is implant@advancedentalclinic.com
