Are Dental Implants Worth It?

Teeth with Dental Implants

 

Nothing can take the place of a healthy set of natural teeth, but when disease or accident leads to tooth loss, dental implants are a great option for restoring your smile.

Due to the advancement of the science of dental implants over the past few decades, they are now regarded as the preferred method of tooth replacement by the dental community. But are they really worth it?

Dental Implants restore the function and beauty of your smile and there are advantages that a partial denture/complete denture can’t offer. Let’s explore some of them:

Dental implants offer long term solutions:

Unlike standard dentures or bridges, which only replace the crowns of the teeth, Dental Implants replace the tooth roots. Once they integrate within your jaw bone, they act as long-term replacements for missing teeth and have thus become the standard tooth-replacement option.

Help prevent jawbone shrinkage:

Loss of teeth accelerates the process of jawbone shrinkage. Without the bone to support your facial muscles, your facial skin will begin to sag and will make you look older. Dental Implants are placed in the jaw bone, recreating the stimulation of tooth roots. So, no worries about looking older!

As good as your natural teeth:

Dental implant crowns are made from layered porcelain, last for a very long time & appear & feel natural, unlike the acrylic dentures.

 

Most patients wearing full dentures would benefit from Dental Implants in many ways. Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth and are designed to blend in with your other natural teeth.
