The Top 10 Reasons to Get Dental Implants
1: Dental Implant Tooth Replacements Restore Your Smile Function, Confidence, and Self-Esteem
In the world of dentistry, when a procedure focuses on repairing or enhancing the aesthetics of a smile, it is called cosmetic dentistry. A procedure that is focused on healing damage done (or preventing further damage) is known as restorative dentistry.
With dental implants, you get the best of both worlds in a single treatment! Our dental implants look and feel natural while functioning like your original teeth. On top of that, they are beautifully crafted, shaped and shaded to ensure your new smile is picture perfect!
Moreover, one of the top reasons our patients choose dental implants is the increased self-confidence in your smile they experience post-procedure.
2: Implants Keep Your Surrounding Teeth From Shifting
Our mouths are a very complex series of hard tissue (such as your jaw and teeth) and soft tissue (gums, tongue, palette) that need to work together to preserve your oral health. The more teeth that you are missing, the more likely it will cause further harm.
Your remaining teeth may begin to move out of place (medically known as mesial drifting but commonly referred to as dental shifting) and cause further harm and discomfort. But dental implants prevent this by functioning just like your original teeth, giving your natural teeth the support they need.
3: Increased Self-Confidence in Your Smile
Our smiles are important for a number of reasons, including the fact they can affect our mental health or emotional well-being. After all, our most genuine smiles come out when we are celebrating big life achievements or sharing a joyful moment with a loved one.
Missing teeth can negatively impact the confidence you have in your smile, preventing you from wanting to share it with those closest to you during life’s happiest moments. That’s why our beautiful dental implants can restore your oral health, create a gorgeous grin, and can give you the self-assurance necessary to share your smile with the world!
4: Dental Implants Can Last a Lifetime
While dental implants are crafted to look like your natural teeth to match your smile and perform the same functions for optimal oral health, their incredible quality provides additional perks. For example, our dental implants are made from top tier materials like titanium and medical grade, biocompatible ceramics.
This means your dental implants are incredibly durable and far more resistant to staining or tooth decay than your natural teeth. A combination to allow them to last a lifetime!
5: Eat Whatever Food You Want, Speak Without Whistling
One of the biggest drawbacks to an incomplete smile and traditional replacement like dentures, is how much they can impact your speech. Without a full set of teeth, you may experience whistling sounds when pronouncing certain words or develop a lisp. With dentures, you may slur your speech or have an embarrassing accident of them slipping out of place while speaking.
Neither are a concern with our dental implants! They can complete your smile without any risk of slipping out of place or disrupting your speech.
6: Implants Are Easy to Maintain
For many patients, they are concerned that restoring their smile may be overly complicated and difficult to maintain. There are certainly a lot of medical procedures that do require a great deal of effort, even after the treatment is completed.
Not the case with our dental implants! One of their greatest perks is they are just as easy to maintain as your natural teeth. Simply brush, floss, and remember to schedule a dental checkup once every six months.
7: Your Facial Structure Will Thank You
Tooth loss can be a very embarrassing situation, making the smile you’ve always seen in the mirror look unfamiliar. This leads to many who have missing teeth to try and hide their smiles, worried about the change in their smile’s aesthetic.
Dental implants can restore your smile’s cosmetics, allowing you to save face figuratively. But they also literally can save your face from new wrinkles, smile lines, and sagging skin by keeping your facial muscles strong the same way your natural teeth do!
8: Improve Jawbone Density With Dental Implants
Another, lesser known benefit about our teeth is how they work to protect almost every aspect of your mouth, including your jaw. By providing necessary stimulation to your jaw during activities like chewing, teeth keep bite issues in check and your mandibles healthy.
If you are missing even a single tooth, your jawbone isn’t getting this necessary stimulation and can break down in a process called bone resorption. But our dental implants are connected to your jaw like your original teeth, which not only prevents any deterioration but can also reverse it.
9: Implant Dentures Are More Comfortable
Let’s face it: comfort is important, even if it isn’t exactly a major factor in the hierarchy of needs. With traditional dentures or false teeth, you need to apply messy adhesive or denture cream to keep them in place. Even then, you may need to adjust your dentures throughout the day or risk an embarrassing moment of them slipping out of place.
Dental implants require no more care than your original teeth and will never slip, providing the most secure and comfortable smile option available in restorative dentistry.
10: Live A More Relaxed, Stress-free Life
When you are missing one or more teeth or need damaged teeth replaced, you are living with increased risks to your oral health. From cosmetic concerns to dental discomfort, an incomplete smile is an added stressor. In fact, you are much more likely to develop gum disease with an incomplete smile, which has been linked to increases of cortisol levels and heart disease!
Thankfully, our dental implants can restore your smile, improve your oral health, and eliminate dental discomfort for a more relaxed, stress free life!
