Benefits of Dental Implants
We want you to feel confident that you are making the right decision regarding restoring your smile with dental implants. Below are just some of the benefits that patients enjoy when they choose dental implants:
Tooth-Root Functionality
The surgically implanted titanium post gives your dental restoration the tooth-root functionality that other restorative options lack. Once fully healed, this post provides extra-strength support for your implant. Because it replaces the tooth root, it stops the jawbone deterioration that occurs when the tooth root is lost. You don’t have to adjust your dental implants to keep up with the deterioration of the bone.
Unlike other restorative options like dental bridges, your soft tissues protect your implant’s hardware. You get all of this extra functionality without distracting from the overall appearance of your smile.
No Dietary Restrictions
Other restorative options may come with dietary restrictions to ensure the longevity of your restoration. This isn’t the case with dental implants. Your soft tissues will protect the hardware of the dental implant, meaning you get to enjoy all of your favorite crunchy or chewy snacks without fear of damaging your dental restoration.
The tooth-root functionality of your dental implant should perform just as well as all of your other natural teeth during daily tasks like chewing or speaking. It’s the only replacement option that returns 100% of your bite function.
No Extra Oral Hygiene Precautions
Dental bridges often hassle you by adjusting your oral hygiene routine, including brushing and flossing under and around the bridge hardware. Dental implants can care for your dental restoration just as you would a natural tooth.
Simply brush and floss the implant with your other dental structures at least twice daily. Continue to schedule regular preventative care appointments with your dentist; your implant should remain in good condition.
Restored Appearance & Functionality
When you invest in a dental implant, you invest in your smile’s overall appearance and functionality. With implants, you can look forward to a permanent and reliable solution to tooth replacement. Not only will you be filling in the gaps left behind by tooth loss, but you will also enjoy a dental restoration that functions just as well as your natural tooth once did. A custom restoration is blends perfectly with the size and shape of your natural teeth.
Reduced Bone Loss
If you are missing one or more teeth, your jawbone density begins to weaken in those areas because of the lack of tooth roots. When you experience bone loss, this weakens the overall health of your jawbone. Additionally, patients who experience bone loss may notice sagging skin around the affected areas. With dental implants, you get the titanium post’s added structure, which reduces the risk of bone loss and sagging skin over time.
