Dental Implants: Solution for Missing Teeth

Dental Implants: Solution for Missing Teeth

A recent US study discovered that 70% of adults between the age of 35 and 44 are missing at least one missing tooth as a result of injury, gum disease, fracture or decay. Many people assume that their only option to replace a missing tooth or teeth is to opt for dentures, which can often become uncomfortable and loose over time. However, with dental implants you can talk, eat and laugh in comfort and renewed confidence as dental implants look, act and feel just like natural teeth. 

Dental implants even help preserve the remaining jawbone as well as maintain your natural facial structure, unlike dentures which can often age a person as the jawbone continues to wear away. As a dental implant functions just like a natural tooth, they are far stronger than dentures and are securely fixed to the jaw so they won't come loose or shift about in your mouth like a denture would.

Another benefit of dental implants is they are a long-term solution, easy to clean (just like your own natural teeth) and unlike dentures, won't need to be relined or remade multiple times. 

Nowadays when I walk into a room, I walk in smiling. I'm not afraid to smile anymore.
