5 Reasons To Get Dental Implants
Dealing with tooth loss can be an emotional experience. Even if you haven’t experienced this yet, you may have a family member who has gone through it and can relate. We encourage our patients who have tooth loss or severe decay to choose a tooth replacement option as soon as possible to avoid further complications with their oral health. One treatment in particular that we provide to patients is dental implants. Read on to learn five benefits of dental implants and how this treatment can change your life.
5 Benefits of Dental Implants
Millions of people choose dental implants as their tooth replacement option each year. We are happy to provide dental implants to our patients and are proud to be able to complete the entire treatment in the comfort of our office.
If you are unfamiliar, dental implants replace the entire tooth structure, including the tooth root. The process involves implanting a post that is placed into the jawbone to replace a tooth root. Over time, it fuses with the bone, creating a permanent solution. To complete the process, an artificial tooth structure, such as a permanent crown, bridge, or denture, is placed to cover the implant.
We want to share five benefits of implants:
Permanent
Patients love that dental implants are a permanent fixture in the mouth. There is no chance of them falling out, and they provide the same stability as natural teeth.
No Food Restrictions
One of the biggest benefits of implants is that patients can enjoy their favorite foods. Often, when teeth are missing or there is severe decay, it can be difficult to eat certain foods. With implants, there are no restrictions, and patients are able to easily chew any food.
Natural Looking
Implants blend in naturally with the surrounding teeth. The replacement tooth structure is color- matched to the surrounding teeth to provide a beautiful and natural finish.
Easy to Maintain
Implants require no additional care and can be cleaned and maintained the same way as your natural teeth. Be sure to brush and floss as usual. Don’t forget to visit us for routine oral hygiene examinations.
Preserve Jawbone
When a tooth is missing, the jawbone is not getting the proper stimulation needed to remain healthy, so it will begin to deteriorate. Implants provide the stimulation needed to keep the jawbone healthy and intact.
We believe that these benefits make dental implants one of the best tooth replacement solutions available to create the beautiful, natural smile you desire.
