If you have a tooth missing or damaged, there are a variety of options available to replace it. Dental implants, on the other hand, are the best option. Other tooth replacement options, such as dentures or bridges, cannot compare to the advantages of dental implants. In terms of advantages, these are a few that stand out:
Retains density of bone
Bone loss in the jaw is often a side effect of tooth loss. To keep its mass, your jawbone depends on the stimulation it receives when your teeth bite together. There is only one option for replacing a missing tooth that restores the jawbone’s stimulation, preventing bone loss.
Is Designed to Look and Feel Like Your Natural Teeth
Dental implants are available in a wide range of shapes and sizes, making them very versatile. With your dentist’s help, you’ll be able to get implants that look and feel like your natural teeth. Implants are not visible to anyone but you and your dentist.
Bite Force is restored
The titanium post that replaces the tooth root anchors dental implants in your jaw, allowing you to bite with about the same force as you would with your natural teeth. Because they are not anchored in place, other tooth replacement options do not restore nearly as much of your bite force as dental implants.
Dental implants support the facial structure
People who are missing teeth are more likely to have a sunken, aged appearance around the mouth because of bone loss, which affects the structure of the entire face. Sedation dentistry can help preserve the shape of your face by strengthening your jawbones.
Dental implants are affordable
You may be surprised at how cost-effective dental implants are when compared to other restorations that may need to be replaced on a regular basis. If you’ve had your implants successfully placed and your mouth is now healthy, we can assist you in preventing any future issues.
Dental implants don’t restrict diet
A common complaint about tooth loss or dentures is that people have to alter their diet because they can’t eat things like apples and steak because their bite is either less effective or the dentures don’t stay in place long enough. People can eat and drink normally once dental implants have stabilised.
Smile, eat and laugh with confidence
A person’s self-esteem may suffer if they have missing teeth or wear dentures, as mentioned in point 7. Denture wearers often complain about their dentures shifting while they’re speaking or laughing, and those who have missing teeth may feel self-conscious about smiling. Using dental implants or implant-retained dentures, you can smile confidently throughout the day because they are anchored to your jawbone and will not shift.
Dental implants are simple to maintain
Taking care of dental implants is as simple as brushing and flossing twice a day, going to the dentist for regular cleanings, and seeing a hygienist on a regular basis. As a result, many people incorrectly believe that their implants don’t need to be cleaned because they are made of synthetic materials. Infections and Gum disease can still affect dental implants, just as they do with natural teeth.
