At Sachem Dental Group, we understand the importance of having a healthy and complete smile. When teeth are missing or fall out, it not only affects the appearance of your smile but also impacts your oral health, how you eat, and your overall well-being. That’s why we believe dental implants for missing teeth are the best investment you’ll ever make.
Best Investment for Missing Teeth
Dental implants are the best replacement for missing teeth because they are a permanent solution that mimics the function and appearance of natural teeth. Unlike other tooth replacement options, such as dentures or bridges, dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, which allows them to function like a natural tooth root. This means they are more stable, comfortable, and long-lasting than other options. They can support even more weight than a healthy tooth.
A Tooth Replacement that Lasts a Lifetime
One of the biggest benefits of dental implants is that they can last a lifetime with proper home care and maintenance. The implant itself is made of a biocompatible material, such as titanium, which fuses with the jawbone over time to create a strong and durable foundation for a dental crown or bridge. This means that once the implant is placed and the crown or bridge is attached, you can expect to have a fully functional tooth replacement for the rest of your life.
Improved Bone Health and Density
Another benefit of dental implants is that they can improve bone health and density in the jaw. When a tooth is missing, the jawbone will almost always deteriorate over time. However, dental implants stimulate bone tissue, which helps prevent bone loss and even promotes new bone growth around the restoration. This can help maintain the natural shape and structure of the face and prevent a sunken or aged appearance.
Safe and Beneficial to Neighboring Teeth
Dental implants are non-invasive to your neighboring teeth. Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants do not require any preparation or alteration of adjacent tooth structures for support. This means that the natural teeth around the implant can remain intact and healthy, which can help prevent future dental issues and preserve your natural smile.
No Need for Additional Tooth Replacement
Finally, dental implants can help prevent the need for additional tooth replacement in the future because they’re designed to last for life. They are typically a one-time investment, rather than something you replace every several years like you would a pair of dentures.
