Why Dental Implants?
When you are missing teeth, there are a few options. Dentures, bridges, or implants. The advantage of implants is that they are made from titanium, and are osseointegrated in the jawbone so that it is the closest replica to real teeth.
Dentures can get loose and wobbly, bridges are difficult to clean under and are susceptible to decay since they are anchored to real teeth, but the titanium dental implant is not susceptible to tooth decay, and is stronger than a real tooth. You can clean them with floss and toothbrush to keep the gums healthy around them. They can be used for multiple purposes: replace a single tooth, become an anchor for multiple teeth, and even to stabilize dentures.
Benefits of Implants:
- Restored confidence with speaking and eating
- Improved attractiveness of your smile
- Cost effective
- Anchoring for dentures or cemented crowns & bridges
- Preserves bone and facial structure
