Having missing teeth disrupts daily activities and can cause physical or emotional pain. Take control of your smile today by learning more about Dental Implants. These implants are a modern replacement for dentures that allow you to live life to the fullest. They look and feel like natural teeth and are durable enough to last a lifetime.
Replacing Missing Teeth
Natural teeth have roots that extend into the jawbone. This keeps teeth stable and immovable. With dental implants, a titanium, biocompatible post is inserted into the place where the missing tooth joined the jawbone. A crown is placed on top, anchored to the post, which feels and functions like a natural tooth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Traditional options for damaged or missing teeth can be uncomfortable and require extra cleaning. Dentures and bridges can cause painful rubbing, which leads to bone decay and discomfort. Fortunately, dental implants are the modern solution to replacing single or multiple teeth. Implants allow you to enjoy the foods you’ve always loved and live life without limitations. With proper oral hygiene, dental implants will last a lifetime. They have a 98% success rate and prevent decay of the jawbone, helping maintain your natural face shape.
