Dental Implants
Hi there , I basically hail from Mysore . Exactly 3 weeks back I met with an accident and lost 3 front upper teeth . So for the 3 lost ones I need to get my implants done .some suggest to wait until I'm 21 or more since the facial development takes place . I'm in the middle of nowhere , really worried . Please drop in your opinions .
Thank you !
Hi..no need to worry. It can be rectified and you will get teeth again like you had earlier. Age has nothing to do with it. I am Dr. M. R Pujari at Marathalli, Bangalore. You can contact me on nine nine eight zero eight ñine three six nine five.

Implants can be done around 18 years of age so no problem you can go ahead with them. However your dentist will advise an OPG X-ray and sometimes a cone beam CT to check the bone in that area and choose the right implant for you.
Next Steps
Consult a dentist or a clinic where an implantogist is available
