Dental Implants And Dentures
Which Is Safer Between Dental Implants And Dentures?

Dentures have been around for a longer time improving with technology. However as cosmetic dentistry Barrie developed, dental implants were introduced. In many ways this are not only a better option but actually the safest one. This is despite the fact that implants require a surgical placement unlike the non-invasive procedure used by a Barrie dentist to fit dentures. A comparison between the two methods of replacing missing teeth is required to see the dangers each pose along with the health and aesthetic benefits one can get by using either of the two.

Dentures Complications
When it comes to dentures however, there are complications which arise from the onset and these cannot be permanently or easily fixed. Dentures slide and move around easily and slip causing discomfort for users. Even after several years down the line, a change in jaw structure over the years easily results in their sliding and hurting the user. The use of adhesives and creams is only a temporary solution to this problem.
Their regular use demands they be removed overnight to give the jaws time to recover. They also need regular cleaning because they often trap food underneath and can result in infection and tooth decay. A major problem with dentures is their effect on the quality of the jawbone. Since the bone is no longer used it is ridden much faster and this in turn leads to the deterioration of the facial structure.
Partial Dentures
Another major problem is the restriction of foods you can eat. Since the dentures are not strong enough they reduce your chewing ability making it harder to eat a fully balanced diet since it becomes a challenge to eat fresh fruits and vegetables. This in turn has a negative effect on your health as you lack sufficient minerals and nutrients for your body.
Partial dentures also pose a problem for the teeth supporting them. They weaken them necessitating the teeth to be reshaped or adapted to accommodate the dentures. Dentures are also fragile and easily break if they fall down. With dental implants you have a more durable and long lasting solution to your missing teeth. It is also a safe solution with any risks being easy to prevent or treat.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Risk Levels
Using dental implants presents risk at two levels. The first one is during the placing of the implants. During this process one could have minor nerve damage as the incisions are made. However, if you work with a qualified and experienced dentist Barrie then you should have no problem as they are usually rare cases.
Dental Implant Problems
The other problem is during their use and over some time infections could develop around the area. Again this is not a common experience and it can easily be resolved by antibiotics. Infections occur in the small spaces within the implants. You can totally avoid this by opting to get CeraRoot implants. Their one piece structure and ease with which they become integrated into the bone ensures that there are no problems in comfort and safety for the patient in the future. This aspect has made them the safest option in aesthetic dentistry Barrie.
