However, many patients question whether it is too early, too late or whether they should wait after an extraction. In this article, our implant specialists explain the key factors that determine the ideal time to get implants.<\/p>\r\n<h2 data-start=\"972\" data-end=\"1023\">What is a dental implant and what is it for?<\/h2>\r\n<p data-start=\"1024\" data-end=\"1261\">A dental implant is a small piece of titanium or zirconium that is placed in the jawbone and acts as an artificial root. On it is fixed a <strong data-start=\"1171\" data-end=\"1188\">dental crown<\/strong>which perfectly mimics the appearance and function of a natural tooth.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1296\">The main benefits are:<\/p>\r\n<ul data-start=\"1297\" data-end=\"1494\">\r\n<li data-start=\"1297\" data-end=\"1339\">\r\n<p data-start=\"1299\" data-end=\"1339\">Recovering the <strong data-start=\"1312\" data-end=\"1336\">masticatory function<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li data-start=\"1340\" data-end=\"1395\">\r\n<p data-start=\"1342\" data-end=\"1395\">Improve the <strong data-start=\"1353\" data-end=\"1372\">dental aesthetics<\/strong> and facial harmony.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li data-start=\"1396\" data-end=\"1446\">\r\n<p data-start=\"1398\" data-end=\"1446\">To prevent progressive loss of jaw bone.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li data-start=\"1447\" data-end=\"1494\">\r\n<p data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1494\">Increase confidence and quality of life.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p data-start=\"1496\" data-end=\"1711\">\ud83d\udc49 Many patients combine implants with <strong data-start=\"1559\" data-end=\"1634\"><a class=\"decorated-link cursor-pointer\" href=\"https:\/\/clinicadelpino.com\/en\/aesthetics\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"1561\" data-end=\"1632\">dental aesthetics in Calpe<\/a><\/strong>The result is a natural and long-lasting result, such as veneers or whitening.<\/p>\r\n<h2 data-start=\"1718\" data-end=\"1784\">What is the right age for dental implants?<\/h2>\r\n<h3 data-start=\"1786\" data-end=\"1830\">Young patients (under 18 years of age)<\/h3>\r\n<p data-start=\"1831\" data-end=\"2148\">Implants are not recommended until bone growth is complete.

Bone density is good, healing is faster and the results are usually excellent.<\/p>\r\n<h3 data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2389\">Older patients<\/h3>\r\n<p data-start=\"2390\" data-end=\"2693\">Advanced age is not a limitation. In our experience, patients over 70 years of age successfully enjoy dental implants in Calpe. The most important thing is the general state of health and the quality of the bone. With techniques such as bone grafting and guided surgery, we achieve safe results.<\/p>\r\n<h2 data-start=\"2700\" data-end=\"2766\">When to get an implant after losing a tooth?<\/h2>\r\n<p
