Is my 18 year old daughter able to have the dental implant treatment?

Q.
my 18 year old daughter needs a single upper left 2 implant, due to a missing tooth. What is the minimum age for her to have this procedure please? She has had the necessary orthodontic treatment and her braces are now removed. Her regular dentist has put a Maryland bridge on to replace the missing toothe but occasionally it pops off (every 2 or 3 months) I would also be interested to know who you would recommend in the Altrincham are to carry out this procedure, and what the approximate cost might be. She has a healthy bone structure and no other dental problems.
A.
18 yrs should be fine
I would say from about £3000 but it may be different in your area.
Sorry I do not know the area so I am unable to recommend anyone.
You usually can’t go too wrong looking for a specialist in periodontics or prosthodontics or restorative dentistry (there is no such thing as a implant specialist and any one who tells you that they are, you should dodge by a mile)
