Factors That Influence Success

Bone quality and quantity, overall health, smoking habits, and oral hygiene all affect implant longevity. Uncontrolled diabetes and certain medications can reduce success rates. A thorough pre-treatment assessment at Omega identifies any risk factors before placement.

Ensuring Your Implant Lasts

Implants require the same care as natural teeth - twice-daily brushing, daily flossing, and regular professional cleanings. Avoiding smoking dramatically improves long-term outcomes. Most well-maintained implants last 20+ years or a lifetime.
