Here's a comprehensive checklist, that outlines the essential steps and examinations involved before the implant process can commence:

Thorough Preoperative Examinations:

Blood Test: Assessing overall health and identifying any underlying conditions that may affect the success of the implants.
Systemic Disease Check/Treatment: Addressing conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure to ensure optimal healing and implant integration.
Mouth Examination: Evaluating oral health, including the condition of existing teeth and gums.
Bite Check and Gum Ridge Assessment: Determining the size and position of implants based on bite alignment and gum condition.
Assessment for Gum Disease, Tooth Decay, and Biting Anomalies: Identifying and treating any existing dental issues that may impact implant placement.
X-ray Examination: Utilizing imaging techniques to assess bone height in the gum, essential for proper implant planning.
Computer-Aided Tomography (CT): Generating 3-D images to plan implant sizes, positions, and angles accurately.

By diligently following the golden list and adhering to preoperative examinations and preparations, patients can set the stage for successful dental implant placement. With proper care and attention, dental implants can offer a lasting solution for restoring oral health and confidence.
