Benefits of Dental Implants
Improved Functionality and Comfort: Dental implants provide a stable and secure foundation for replacement teeth, closely mimicking the function of natural tooth roots. This stability enables patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, without the discomfort or inconvenience often associated with traditional dentures or bridges.
Bone Preservation and Facial Structure Support: Tooth loss can lead to bone resorption, a process in which the jawbone gradually deteriorates due to the absence of stimulation from the tooth root. Dental implants help prevent this bone loss by fusing with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration, maintaining bone density and facial structure.
Long-lasting and Aesthetically Appealing: Dental implants are made of durable materials, such as titanium, which are biocompatible and have a high success rate. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Additionally, the implant-supported restorations are custom-designed to match the appearance of your natural teeth, resulting in a seamless, visually appealing smile.
What is a Dental Implant?
Over time, the dental implant undergoes a process called osseointegration, in which it fuses with the surrounding bone. This integration creates a strong bond between the implant and the jawbone, ensuring the implant’s stability and long-term success.
