When patients come to our practice with missing teeth, Dr. Makadia recommends best treatment options that could include dental implants. Dental Implants offer some amazing benefits! If you are looking to rebuild a complete smile, this treatment might be right for you. In what specific ways might it help you enjoy improved health and a better quality of life? This blog post lists just the top five benefits of dental implants.
A Strong Bite
Dental implants are anchored in the jawbone, so they can provide you with a bite force that is almost as strong as what you would enjoy with healthy natural teeth. That means they may allow you to consume a variety of foods, including tough and chewy items that are challenging to consume with traditional dentures.
Jawbone Preservation
When the natural teeth are extracted or decaying, a process known as resorption begins. Basically, that means your body starts to recycle the jawbone, causing it to become smaller and weaker over time. Dental implants act as prosthetic tooth roots, so unlike traditional forms of tooth replacement, they stimulate the jawbone and help to keep it healthy, strong, and whole.
Durability & Longevity
Dental implants and their restorations (the crowns, bridges, and dentures that go on top of them) are designed to be reliable and long-lasting. They are made of tough materials that can easily stand up to daily food chewing. With proper care, you might even find that your dental implants last for many years.
Beautiful Appearance
Your face and smile are among the first things other people notice about you. Understandably, you want them to be attractive. Dental implant crowns look almost identical to natural teeth. Plus, because they keep the jawbone healthy, they can help you to maintain a youthful facial shape. (Without dental implants, extensive tooth and bone loss could cause your face to look shorter and “sunken” over time.)
Predictably Successful
Dental implants are successful in most cases. In fact, some studies have placed their success rate at more than 95%. Dr. Makadia and our team will do everything in our power to ensure that you are in that happy majority.
