Implant Dental

Many men and women currently suffering with broken, damaged, decaying or missing teeth are searching for ways to improve their smile. One of the best alternatives for restoring your smile is Dental Implants. Dental Implants, simply put, are replacement tooth roots. Implants have the ability to provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth, and when implanted, give patients the look and feel of natural teeth.

The Advantages of Dental Implants

There are many advantages patients experience when receiving dental implants, including:

Improved appearance. Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. And because they are designed to fuse with bone when implanted, they become permanent.

Improved speech. Many dental implant candidates currently have dentures. Dentures are removable teeth replacements, and often slip in the mouth causing wearers to mumble or slur words. Dental implants look and act like natural teeth, therefore don’t hinder speech in the least.

Improved comfort. Because they become part of you, dental implants eliminate the discomfort that can be caused by broken and decaying teeth or removable dentures.

Easier eating. Similar to speech, missing teeth and removable dentures can both cause problems when eating. Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing patients to eat their favorite foods without pain or discomfort.

Improved self-esteem. A full, natural looking smile not only restores the ability to eat and speak properly, it also restores confidence.

Improved oral health. Dental implants don't require the reduction of surrounding teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does. Because nearby teeth are not altered to support the implant, your teeth are left intact, thus improving your long-term oral health. Individual implants also allow easier access between teeth, which improves oral hygiene.

Are Dental Implants Successful?

Success rates of dental implants vary, depending each individual patient but, in general, dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%. With proper care post treatment care, denture implants can last a lifetime.
