Implant Treatment in Systemic Diseases
The most important factor in dental procedures is the patient's general health. Diseases affecting the whole body are directly related to oral and dental health.
Important Note: The information below is preliminary information prepared from scientific articles. Please do not draw conclusions about your existing diseases and medication use without consulting your doctor.
Cardiovascular Diseases
Research has shown that dental implants can bond to bone under appropriate conditions and provide positive clinical results in patients with cardiovascular disease.
Diabetes
In diabetes patients with controlled blood sugar, the success rate of implant treatment is close to that of healthy individuals. It is very important to keep blood-glucose levels within normal limits for 2 months before and after treatment.
Osteoporosis
Bone resorption does not completely exclude the use of dental implants, but a comprehensive evaluation before treatment is essential.
Bisphosphonate Use
Implants can be placed in patients taking oral bisphosphonates; however, implant treatments are not recommended in individuals receiving intravenous bisphosphonates.
