How long should a dental implant last?
A dental implant can be a lietime solution and is by far one of the most durable restorations dentistry has to offer in the modern day.
Can you have implants if you have Zolendronic acid @ 5mg infusion per year . I need 2 extractions of lower front teeth to hold a 4 tooth bridge .Bone in lower jaw is thick & capable of taking implant .I am taking z/a for borderline osteoporosis . Gums healthy .Teeth needing removal have had unsuccesful root canal treatment.I am 68 years old & have retained most teeth though restored.I maintain excellent oral hygeine .
you may be at a greater risk of post operative complications. You should speak to your implant surgeon and find out what they think as opinions vary between dentists
