If you are considering for tooth replacements, dental implants is an excellent option. They provide a strong basis for fixed or removable replacement teeth to perfectly match your teeth. Even you won’t be able to tell the difference between your natural tooth and the implanted one.
There are three components involved in dental implants: post, abutment, and restoration. The post is like a screw inserted in the jaw bone. The abutment works as a connecting element and is fastened to the post. The restoration is set down on top, and there you have it. The end result is a lovely, realistic look.
Implants are an excellent option for different situations. They can be just what you need to bring your confidence and self-esteem back. Here are some reasons to help you decide whether receiving dental implants is the best choice you can make for yourself.
1. To Restore And Maintain Your Appearance
They say the first thing you notice about someone is their smile. If some of your pearly whites are missing, you feel awkward about your smile. You pass a conscious smile through clenched teeth. Dental implants can help restore your smile back and enhance your appearance. So you no longer have to feel uncomfortable and can confidently flash your winning smile. Dental implants last much longer compared to dental bridges. If you want a permanent way out to your missing or damaged teeth, your best option are dental implants.
2. To Preserve And Protect A Healthy Jawbone
Dental implants are not just for cosmetics. If you have missing spaces, it can cause your jawbone to deteriorate and loose its strength. Your only option to save and protect your natural bone is by getting dental implants. Do not delay or put off getting implants. There may be a chance your jawbone will not be able to support the implants when you do decide to get them in the future.
3. To Protect Your Teeth Placement
If you lose a tooth, it can create problems for the surrounding teeth. They may shift from their position, which not only will look unnatural and make your face appear sunken, it will cause you major oral hygiene issues. Your teeth may shift unevenly or become crowded, which will make it much harder to brush and floss your teeth perfectly. If your teeth are not brushed properly, chances are you may suffer from cavities and other oral disease to deal with. So make a wise decision of getting implants and help your teeth to stay in its natural placement.
4. To Make It Easier For You To Eat
If you are considering dentures for your tooth replacements, you may find yourself facing some issues. If dentures are not fixed properly or are poor-fitted, you may find them to slide right out and make chewing your food quite difficult. Whereas in the case of dental implants, you will be able to eat all your favorite foods without any pain or trouble as dental implants function just as well as your own natural teeth.
