If you\u2019re missing teeth, there are many options available with modern dentistry for replacement. However, dental implants<\/a> are the best without a doubt. While many patients may be familiar with the basic information on these implants, they may not have the whole story. If you\u2019re curious about the lesser-known facts you may have missed about this fantastic treatment, continue reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. They Have a 95 Percent Success Rate<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There’s a lot of training and technology that goes into the placement of dental implants. It\u2019s no surprise, then, that it has one of the highest success rates of any dental treatment. This level of quality means that once the implant is placed, it will last for as long as you take care of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Dental Implants Save Your Jawbone<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another fascinating fact about dental implants is their ability to stimulate jawbone growth. When a tooth is lost, the underlying bone can begin to deteriorate over time in a process called resorption. However, implants mimic the function of natural tooth roots and keep resorption at bay. This helps prevent bone loss and can even keep your face looking younger, longer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. They Improve Oral Health<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to replacing missing teeth and preserving bone, dental implants can also improve overall oral health. Unlike dental bridges, which require adjacent teeth to be shaved down for support, implants preserve the surrounding teeth. This means that adjacent teeth remain untouched, reducing the risk of damage and decay. These implants are also very easy to care for, requiring only regular brushing and flossing just like normal teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. They Last a Lifetime<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Titanium implants have the potential to last a lifetime with proper care. This is because they are made from durable materials like titanium, which fuses with your jawbone over time and resists acids and corrosion. With regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene practices, dental implants can provide a permanent addition to your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Dental Implants Improve Your Quality of Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finally, dental implants can significantly improve your quality of life. They look, feel, and function like natural teeth which allows you to enjoy life as if it wasn\u2019t there. You\u2019ll be able to eat your favorite foods, smile with confidence, and socialize worry-free knowing your tooth is secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These implants offer many benefits beyond simply replacing missing teeth. They offer increased health for your mouth and a balm for your self-confidence. They are a versatile and effective solution that will last a lifetime and offer peace of mind\u2014a priceless benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re considering dental implants, you can reach out to your dentist for a consultation. They\u2019ll answer any questions you may have and guide you through the rest of the process. A new smile awaits!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
