I have tooth implants, does that disqualify me for the military?

by Matrix Dental Laboratory

I’m getting a DOD physical exam next month because I’m joining the Navy ROTC. does anyone know if having tooth implants will disqualify the medical exam? the implants use titanium tooth roots and my friend told me he was turned down by the marines because he had titanium jaw re-enforcements.
thanks for the input everybody

I dont reckon that matters at all

I wouldnt reckon so. They dont pose any longterm problems. And you could bite your way out of a hairy situation. Id say the Marines would be more than willing because we are all killers.

Answer by Team Chief
Titanium jaw re-inforcements are a really different thing than what you have. Tooth implants, in any case of what they’re made of, should be okay and not produce you any problems.

Air Force ROTC: No intentional alteration of any body part that deforms or otherwise detracts from a professional military image, enhancing tooth filing.

You can get tooth implant at any time if the tooth that came out is your permanent tooth .

Answer by frdrtd
You cannot get an implant at any age, even if it is a permanent tooth that was removed. Your jaw is still forming in anticipation of you are about 20 being of age. No reputable dentist is going to house an implant in a teenagers mouth.

Once you have reached adulthood, then you will be able to have the implant placed. It is usually between the ages of 18 and 22.
