If dentures are no longer providing the level of stability, comfort, and all-around ease you were hoping for in a tooth replacement solution, you’ll be happy to learn there’s another option. Dental implants in Tracy are a safe and effective method of replacing missing teeth, and you don’t have to worry about adhesives, clips or brackets to keep them in place. Find out how you can improve your quality of life with a more permanent solution.
The Permanent Choice: Dental Implants
Whether you need to replace one or several missing teeth, dental implants are a superior tooth replacement solution. Because the implant, which is made of titanium, acts as the tooth root, it is surgically placed in your jawbone, providing the stimulation your bone needs to remain stable and strong. Once the implant has properly fused to the bone, which can take several months, your dentist will place a customized crown on top of the implant. The crown is designed to match the color, shape, and size of your nearby teeth, so you won’t be able to tell which tooth is real and which one is artificial.
Benefits to Dental Implants
Dental implants offer a wide array of benefits to patients with missing teeth. Is it a more expensive approach? Yes, but the investment is well worth the years of stability and durability your implants will provide. Here are some of the benefits of getting dental implants:
- They can last decades or even a lifetime: This is one of the greatest benefits. With proper care and maintenance, you’ll be able to keep your implants for a very long time.
- They’re made to withstand day-to-day wear and tear: The implant is surgically placed, which means it’s not going anywhere. Once your new tooth is put into place, you can get back to eating and drinking the things you love and forget about worrying if your implant might fall out.
- Dental implants require no change in your oral habit routine: Remembering to brush and floss on a regular basis is all you need to do to ensure your implant stays healthy.
- They’re unnoticeable: The natural look and feel they provide will have others envying your smile instead of noticing the difference in your teeth.
Switching to a More Secure Tooth Replacement Solution
If you’ve received or are currently being treated with dentures (full or partial) or a fixed bridge, it’s time to make the switch. Why? If the benefits we listed above aren’t enough, you can expect a superior treatment with dental implants.
If you’re tired of accidental slippage, sticky and messy adhesives, or if you are seeing the effects of what clips and brackets are doing to your natural teeth, it’s time to talk to your dentist about switching to dental implants.
