Replacing Missing Teeth?
Are Dental Implants Ideal For Replacing Missing Teeth?
Before recommending any restoration work, your dentist will consider longevity among other things. Implants are highly recommended because they are very durable. Often patients who have missing teeth will go for dentures and bridges not knowing that implants can do a much better job. In fact, implants are considered one of the most advanced restoration techniques that can help you achieve a beautiful smile with long term results.

How Much Will You Spend On An Implant?
The cost of an implant will vary depending on several factors such as whether it will be done alongside other tooth replacement procedures. The upfront cost of an implant is likely to be higher than that of a procedure like a bridge or denture. This is because they require a slightly more advanced technology unlike dentures and bridges. Your dentist will tell you about the long-term benefits of having an implant that justifies the high upfront cost.
Why Are Dental Implants Better Than Other Options?
Implants are highly recommended because they fuse to the bone unlike other procedures. You can have the implant for very many years without it affecting the surrounding teeth. Unlike dental fillings which were said to contain mercury that can damage the teeth and gums, implants will fit very strong and securely plus the titanium used has no adverse effects on your oral health.
Will They Just Improve The Look of Your Teeth?
Dental Implants can be used to improve the functionality of your teeth. If you suffer from severe tooth damage, you may experience difficulty biting food. You may even end up affecting surrounding teeth because of the pressure that is placed on the healthy teeth. Implants can be used to make your teeth more secure and restore your bone structure. You can avoid infections that occur when you have cavities, cracks or fractures on your teeth.
How Do You Take Care of Implants?
With dentures, you will need to invest in adhesives and cleaning agents in order to ensure they last long. However, implants will look good for many years with just brushing and flossing as well as going for your regular dental checkups. Dentures on the other hand can give you gum irritation or sores when they do not fit properly. You can avoid this by having an implant.
ARE YOUR HEALTHY TEETH AT RISK OF ANY DAMAGE?
Do You Need Any Teeth Replacement?
Implants, unlike bridges, do not risk your surrounding healthy teeth. Bridges use crowns of the healthy teeth to secure the fake tooth in place. This is what ends up compromising the surrounding teeth in the process. With implants, you will not need any replacement plus they have very simple cleaning routine that allows you to keep your gums infection free.
Advantages of Dental Implants
Implants can also be used to stop premature aging, promote bone growth and to permanently fill a space that was left to prevent the teeth from shifting and causing other bite problems. Investing in an implant is likely to be worthwhile if you consider all these advantages.
