The Top Benefits of Dental Implants

  • Preservation of Jawbone Health

    One of the most significant benefits of a dental implant is that it prevents bone loss. When a tooth is missing, the jawbone in that area deteriorates, leading to other problems. During a dental implant procedure, the implant is surgically placed in the jawbone and fuses with the bone over time, providing a strong and stable foundation for the replacement tooth. Successful implant placement preserves the integrity of the jawbone and prevents further bone loss.

  • Improved Self-Esteem

    A dental implant can significantly improve self-esteem and confidence by replacing missing teeth and restoring a patient’s natural appearance. Missing teeth or gaps in the smile can cause embarrassment and self-consciousness, leading to a decrease in self-esteem. Dental implants provide a permanent solution to missing teeth that look and function like natural teeth, helping create an improved appearance and better quality of life.

  • Looks, Feels, and Acts Like Natural Teeth

    Known as the best dental restorative option, dental implants look, feel, and act like natural teeth. They mimic the natural tooth from root and crown and are custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of the nearby teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable from your natural, neighboring teeth. This means that people won’t be able to tell that you have dental implants, and you can feel confident when you smile.

  • Restores Bite Force

    Dental implants also restore bite force, allowing you to eat the foods you love without discomfort or difficulty. Dentures and dental bridges can affect your ability to bite and chew certain foods, but dental implants are anchored securely in the jawbone and provide a stable base for the artificial tooth, allowing you to enjoy a wide variety of foods without restrictions.

  • Improves Speech and Eating Abilities

    Dental implants can also improve speech and eating abilities. Dentures can slip and move in the mouth, causing difficulty with speech and eating. Dental implants, however, are anchored securely in the jawbone, providing a stable base for the replacement tooth, which can improve speech and eating abilities.

  • Easy to Care for

    Dental implants are also easy to maintain. They don’t require special care and can be brushed and flossed like natural teeth. Remember to maintain good oral hygiene to keep the implant and the surrounding teeth healthy, but there’s no need for any additional care or maintenance. With implant success rates sitting around 95%, you’ll have a long-lasting tooth replacement as long as you care for them properly.

    Our Palm Beach Gardens dentist created a helpful guide on how to maintain your dental implants and achieve good oral health so you can enjoy their benefits for years to come.

  • Can Last a Lifetime

    Dental implants are also a long-term dental restoration option. They’re designed to last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. While the implant is made of biocompatible materials designed to fuse with the jawbone, the replacement tooth that’s attached to the jawbone below the implant may need to be replaced or restored over time, but the implant post itself can last a lifetime.

  • Improves Oral Health

    Dental implants can improve oral health. When a tooth is missing, it can lead to other problems with adjacent teeth, including shifting, bite problems, and jawbone deterioration. Dental implants prevent these problems by filling the gap left by the missing tooth and preserving the integrity of adjacent teeth and the jawbone.

  • Durable

    Dental implants are also highly durable. They’re made of biocompatible materials designed to fuse with the jawbone, providing a strong and stable foundation for the replacement tooth. They’re also resistant to tooth decay and periodontal disease, making them an excellent option for people looking for a long-term solution for healthy teeth.

  • No Slipping As They’re Non-Removable

    Dental implants are non-removable, which means they won’t slip or move in the mouth. They’re anchored securely in the jawbone, providing a stable base for the replacement tooth. This eliminates the discomfort and embarrassment of the false teeth of traditional dentures, which can slip and move in the mouth.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the downside of dental implants?

    While the benefits tend to outweigh the drawbacks, dental implants do require a surgical procedure. However, the complication rate is around 5%. Risks of implant surgery include:

    Infection
    Implant failure
    Damage to other teeth
    Delayed healing
    Nerve damage

  • Does a dental implant set off metal detectors?

    No, a titanium dental implant rarely sets off metal detectors. Titanium is a non-magnetic metal, so you shouldn’t worry about setting off a metal detector with your implants.

  • Do dental implants get cavities?

    No, dental implants don’t get cavities. Since they’re made from titanium, they’re resistant to tooth decay. Just make sure you’re maintaining good oral health so your implants last as long as possible and your natural teeth get the proper care they need.
