Can implants be applied to people of all ages? One of the issues that implant patients wonder about is the question of which age group the implant can be applied to and which age group it cannot be applied to.

Can implants be applied to people of all ages?
Implants Patients are mostly over 40 years old. There are various reasons for this. But the most common reason is that dental care and cleaning is not done sufficiently at a young age.
If teeth are not taken care of well enough at a young age, they become weak and problematic in later years, and can even lead to toothlessness.
To prevent this, we need to take good care of our teeth and have regular check-ups at the dentist. It has been proven that the duration of natural teeth in the mouth is much longer in patients who do this. Dentist Prof. Dr. Ömer Kutay recommends his patients to have a check-up at the dentist once or twice a year.
