When it comes to missing teeth, few options are more attractive to dental patients than dental implants.
Dental implants are made with titanium posts inserted into your jaw, mimicking the roots of your teeth, upon which your dentist will secure one tooth, a small group of teeth, or an entire arch with denture implants.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer a variety of benefits that are hard to overlook when compared to other alternatives for dealing with missing teeth, such as partial dentures and even bridges.
Below are a few important benefits dental implants provide:
- Maintains the integrity of the bone structure of your jaw.
- Helps you retain or achieve certain cosmetic goals.
- Reduces bone shrinkage that occurs when teeth or missing.
- Allows you to eat real foods without restrictions.
- Avoids fall outs or coming loose like dentures and/or partials.
- Prevents your bite from shifting in the case of a single-tooth implant.
Working with a qualified implant dentist is essential for achieving the cosmetic appearance you’re looking for and maintaining the integrity of your smile for years to come.
Why Consider Dental Implants?
Dental implants can be instrumental in helping to restore the beauty of your smile after injuries, accidents, and other dental problems begin to take a toll.
When a single tooth is missing, an implant helps to prevent the other teeth from shifting around into the open space. It doesn’t seem like a big problem but can have the following negative effects:
- Impair speech
- Throw bite out of alignment
- Make chewing difficult
For more missing teeth, the problem becomes even greater, and more challenging to address without dental implants. Many people believe dentures are their only options, but the advances in implant dentistry have made dental implants a viable option for more people than ever before.
