Chewing, smiling, speaking… teeth allow us to do the daily activities that we often take for granted. If you’ve lost a single tooth, several teeth, or all of your teeth, then you probably know all the hazards that can result. Headaches, tooth decay, gum disease, shifting of remaining teeth, inability to chew, stomach problems, limited social interaction… the list goes on.
What Are Dental Implants?
Revolutionary technology now allows us to replace not just missing teeth, but their roots, too. With dental implants, you can get back to eating the foods you love and stop worrying about the social, personal, and physical discomfort caused by missing teeth.
Dental implants are small titanium “posts” that, when implanted beneath your gum, replicate the function of a natural root, holding veneers or dentures in place securely.
Benefits Of Dental Implants For The Replacement Of Missing Teeth
- Greatly improved eating
- Greatly improved health
- Greatly improved esthetics…better social life, increased self-esteem
Dental implants are often the best solution to replace one missing tooth or many. And they don’t just improve your mouth’s appearance, dental implants also prevent gum recession, bone loss, and teeth alignment.
Dental implants are:
- Durable. With proper care, daily brushing, flossing, and regular visits to a qualified dentist, dental implants can last your entire life.
- Stable. Unlike other “solutions,” dental implants won’t move or come loose after wear, so you can smile freely!
- The Right Choice. Often, the loss of a tooth is followed by painful bone loss and unattractive gum recession. Dental implants are the best solution to prevent these common, unfortunate problems.
