Now here’s the good news: we may have the solutions you are looking for.
Will Others Notice That They Are Implants?
While there are other tooth replacement options, dental implants have many advantages over other treatments. Although dental implants may not be appropriate for everyone, they may be a great and effective treatment option for those who have suffered tooth loss.
They are called “implants” because an artificial tooth root is placed, or implanted, into your jawbone. It is then covered by a natural-looking tooth replacement. Implants are the only tooth replacement option that incorporates an artificial root, allowing them to function much like natural teeth. With the permanent root, your smile can be strong and undetected by others.
What Are The Top Benefits Of Choosing Dental Implants?
Here are five major benefits to consider when deciding between dental implants and other tooth restoration options:
#1: Dental implants are convenient and long-lasting.
Unlike dentures, you don’t need to take them out to eat or clean and there’s no need to reapply them with adhesive. Implants also provide a permanent solution to tooth loss–they are built to last a lifetime if they are well taken care of.
#2: Get the look, feel, and function of your natural teeth.
Dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth so you can look and feel your best. They also function like real teeth, meaning you can bite naturally and eat the foods you love without hesitation. Implants also don’t interfere with your speech like some other replacement options.
#3: Oral hygiene isn’t complicated by implants.
You can take care of your teeth, as usual, flossing once a day and brushing twice daily. With implants, it’s easy to maintain that bright, beautiful smile!
#4: Implants prevent bone deterioration and loss.
When you lose teeth the jawbone deteriorates, causing your face to appear sunken over time. Implants act as an artificial tooth root, stimulating the jawbone and promoting bone growth. This helps maintain the natural shape of your face and jaw.
#5: Leave your natural teeth unaltered.
Some treatment options, like a dental bridge, require grinding down other healthy teeth to support the bridge. Implants replace lost teeth but do not require any alteration of your existing healthy teeth.
