Can a dental implant still be placed in lower jaw in the far back if site is near facial nerve?

I had an x-ray of the site and was told that placing an implant at this site may permanently damage my facial nerve since my facial nerve is higher up in my jaw. Is there a way to get around this problem in case I still need an implant placed here? The roots of my molar are just as long as an implant and I don't have any problems from the roots affecting the nerve.Can a dental implant still be placed in lower jaw in the far back if site is near facial nerve?
Not the facial nerve. The inferior alveolar nerve. Yes seek a specialist who can order or take special films called tomagraphs. Generally they can be placed without a problem. Placement in the very back can be tricky due to how wide you can open.Can a dental implant still be placed in lower jaw in the far back if site is near facial nerve?
Some times sinus lift surgery provides the right solution which only your dentist can decide.
i would get THREE opinions about that from specialists, before i did anything that would effect a facial nerve.





the ristk is not worth it in my opinion.
