"Can my implant fail after 20 years?" Possible but rare. Most failures happen earlier. After 15 years, very stable typically.

"Should I worry about cancer or other diseases affecting implants?" Most diseases don't affect implants. Some treatments (radiation to head/neck, bisphosphonates) require care. Discuss with home doctor.

"What about implants in my 80s?" Many patients in 80s+ have functional implants placed in 60s. Age alone not concerning. Health matters more.

"How does this compare to natural teeth?" Natural teeth average lifespan 60-80 years. Implants 25+ years standard. Both excellent solutions.
