Benefits Of Dental Implants
Your teeth are very important.
Not only do you need them to eat, but they also have a very direct impact on your appearance and how you feel about yourself.
Therefore, it is only natural to want strong, healthy teeth that gives you a beautiful smile. Of course, natural teeth are the absolute best. However, if the natural teeth become damaged or they need to be extracted, then the next best thing is dental implants. There are many benefits associated with this option.
Durable and Long-Lasting
Implants are made to last for several years and are durable just like natural teeth. This makes them a cost-effective solution. They may need periodic adjustments, but with proper care, they can potentially last a lifetime.
Smile With Confidence
If you suffer from missing teeth or unsightly tooth problems, your dentist can correct this with dental implants. Gone are the days of hiding your smile or avoiding social situations. You also won’t have to worry about your teeth falling out of your mouth while eating or talking as you would with traditional dentures. This will certainly ease your mind.
Preserve and Protect Your Bone and Retain Face Shape
When you lose a tooth, over time the bone can deteriorate. This can cause your other teeth to shift and can create other health problems. Also, a face without teeth can appear sunken in and older. Prevent these problems with dental implants. They will help your face retain its shape by filling in the gaps where your natural teeth used to be. The bone will be used to hold the tooth in place. This will stop bone deterioration and actually encourage bone growth.
Eat and Speak With Confidence
Traditional dentures and bridges can make it difficult to speak properly. You also have to give up many foods that you enjoy for fear that you will damage your dentures or a bridge. This is not the case with implants. Your bite will be natural allowing you to enjoy all of your favorite foods regardless if those foods consist of sticky candy, hard apples or other foods that might otherwise damage dental work.
Never Worry About Cavities Again
The one drawback to natural teeth is the threat of cavities. No matter how persistent you are with your dental hygiene, you run the risk of cavities. But, cavities are never a concern if you have an implant-restored crown or replacement tooth. You will still need to maintain good oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly to ensure your dental health is good.
Healthy Teeth Are Protected
When your dentist implants a tooth, your healthy teeth are left untouched. This is not the case when you receive a tooth-supported bridge. Grinding of the healthy teeth on one or both sides of the missing teeth is required to place such a bridge. Therefore, healthy teeth must be damaged to restore those that are missing. Tooth replacement also keeps other teeth from shifting into the empty space left by the missing tooth.
Dental implants have many benefits in addition to the ones previously mentioned. If you are missing teeth and are concerned about your dental health, then you may be a good candidate for this procedure. Your dentist can explain the procedure to you in detail and help you determine if this is a viable option for you.
