Dental implants offer numerous benefits for individuals with missing teeth, making them a popular choice for tooth replacement:
- Improved Functionality: Dental implants function like natural teeth, allowing for comfortable chewing and speaking. Unlike removable dentures, implants are anchored securely in the jawbone, providing stability and preventing slippage.
- Enhanced Aesthetics: Dental implants closely resemble natural teeth, blending seamlessly with the rest of your smile. They can help restore your confidence by improving the aesthetics of your teeth as well as your overall appearance.
- Preservation of Jawbone Health: When a tooth is lost, the underlying jawbone can begin to deteriorate over time due to lack of stimulation. Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping to preserve its density and prevent bone loss, which can occur with traditional tooth replacement options like dental bridges.
- Long-Term Durability: With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a durable and cost-effective solution for tooth replacement.
Should I get a dental implant or a dental bridge?
When deciding between a dental implant and a dental bridge, several factors should be considered. Dental implants offer advantages such as preserving adjacent teeth and promoting jawbone health, while bridges require the alteration of healthy adjacent teeth for support. Additionally, dental implants offer greater stability and longevity compared to bridges. However, some patients are not good candidates for implants or want a minimally-invasive alternative and opt for a dental bridge instead.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Whether you are a candidate for dental implants or not depends on various factors, including overall oral health, jawbone density, and medical history. Generally, candidates for dental implants should have good oral health, adequate bone volume in the jawbone to support the implant, and be free from certain medical conditions that may affect healing. If you are interested in receiving one or more dental implants, our team would be happy to assess your smile and help you make an informed decision about the best tooth-replacement option for your needs.
