The Many Benefits Of Dental Implants
Improved oral health.
Dental implants will not sacrifice the quality of your adjacent teeth like a bridge does because neighboring teeth are not altered to support the implant. More of your own teeth are left untouched, a significant long-term benefit to your oral health!
Esthetics.
Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone, they prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompany bridgework and dentures. No one will notice that you have a replacement tooth.
Enhanced comfort.
Many patients who have selected dental implants describe a quality of life that is much more comfortable and secure than the lifestyle experienced by those with fixed bridges or removable dentures. Dentures often make a person restrict the everyday pleasure of eating comfortably. Dental implants allow people to enjoy a healthy and varied diet without the restrictions many denture wearers face.
Confidence.
When they count the benefits they enjoy as a result of their dental implants, patients say their implants eliminate the day-to-day frustrations and discomfort of ill-fitting dentures. With a sense of renewed self-confidence, many people rediscover the excitement of an active lifestyle shared with family and friends and the chance to speak clearly and comfortably with co-workers.
Durability.
Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.
