If you have lost one or more of your teeth, you may be considering getting a replacement. There exist several replacement options for lost teeth. Our specialists have vast experience and knowledge and can advise you on which replacement option is best for your situation. In this article, we discuss why you should consider dental implants.
Permanent option
Replacement options such as crowns and veneers have their advantages. However, dental implants are the only replacements for lost teeth that last a lifetime. A dental implant resembles a screw that is drilled into your jaw bone, providing support for a permanent crown to be placed in the area where you had a missing tooth. The strong and durable nature of the implant allows it to be permanent and durable.
Protect your dental structure
Once you lose a tooth, over time, the other teeth begin to move and crowd in an attempt to fill the gap. This movement of your teeth causes your jaw bone to weaken and you overall health to deteriorate. Getting dental implants stops your teeth from moving since the implant is drilled to your jawbone.
Restoring the shape of your face
Teeth loss may cause your face to sag making you look older and sad. Getting dental implants will correct this situation making your face appear fuller and give you a healthier more attractive smile.
Correct speech impediments
Tooth loss brings several disadvantages, one of them being speech impediments. You might start struggling to pronounce some words once you lose some of your teeth, making communication hard. Dental implants ensure that all your teeth are in place, allowing you to easily and effectively express yourself.
