Are you ready to get the smile of your dreams? We’re proud to let you know how dental implants can offer exactly that. We’ve helped patients just like yourself achieve their smile goals, and want to learn more about your needs.
To get started, we’ve compiled a list of the best advantages of implants.
Here are a few!
1. Dental implants are strong—and in some cases, stronger than your natural teeth!
Why? Because a metal post is inserted into your mouth which fuses to the bone, it creates an incredibly strong bond for the crown, denture or bridge to be placed. As you can imagine, your natural teeth do not have metal rods in them. This is why an implant may be stronger than your natural teeth.
2. Implants offer a high success rate.
In fact, the success rate of dental implants is over 98%. This means the entire process is safe and effective. Most patients are able to return to their daily activities straightaway—except with a new and improved smile.
3. Dental implants are easy to care for.
How do you care for them? The same way you’d care for your actual teeth. It’s important to brush and floss your implants every day. Just as you wouldn’t chew extremely hard food or use your teeth to tear open a package, you shouldn’t do this with your implants either.
4. Implants are more comfortable than dentures or other removable oral appliances.
With an implant, you don’t have to worry about it ‘shifting or slipping’ as you may with typical removable dentures. An implant is custom fit and placed in your mouth for adequate aesthetic, chewing and speaking purposes. Because it’s attached to a metal post, it’s more secure than removable dentures.
5. They’re ideal for patients who are missing teeth.
When you visit the oral surgeon for a consultation, they will perform x-rays to determine if you’re a candidate for implants. The only requirement lies in the amount of bone you have in your jaw. If it seems weak, they can discuss bone grafting options. If you have any medical conditions, please let them know at this time.
