dental implants<\/a> because they are the closest thing to their natural teeth. Unlike other treatments, they replace both the root and the crown. Your jawbone fuses to the post to create a sturdy foundation for the tooth. You never need to worry about any slipping or irritation again. In fact, you will regain as much as 70% of your biting force.<\/p>\nUsing high-quality all-ceramic material makes the crown look just like a real tooth. It is customized to match the size, shape, and color of your remaining natural teeth to blend in seamlessly when you smile.<\/p>\n
2. Long-Lasting Results<\/h2>\n
Dental implants are the most predictable and reliable solution to treat missing teeth. As a result, they have the potential to last for several decades. With the right aftercare, your implant posts should never need to be replaced; however, the restorations will suffer from daily wear and tear. On average, you will need new restorations about every 10 years.<\/p>\n
3. High-Success Rate<\/h2>\n
Dental implants offer over a 95% 10-year success rate. The use of advanced technology and biocompatible materials allow them to be more successful than other treatments.<\/p>\n
4. Improved Oral Health<\/h2>\n
Each missing tooth causes you to lose bone density in your jawbone because of the lack of a root. This causes you to lose density in your jaw, which compromises your remaining natural teeth. Dental implants are the only solution to preserve your bone density. The implant post acts as a new root to stimulate bone growth. This helps to protect your teeth from further complications, like alignment issues, tooth decay, and gum disease.<\/p>\n
5. Protects Oral Structures<\/h2>\n
By stimulating the jawbone, dental implants can help you maintain a more youthful appearance by protecting your facial structures. It helps to avoid premature sagging and wrinkling of your skin that is common with missing teeth.<\/p>\n
