Dental implants offer a permanent solution to the problem of missing teeth. They are nothing but small titanium posts that are directly inserted into jawbones to act as an artificial tooth roots. A dental crown is attached to this implant to replace the missing tooth.
But what makes them unique, and how they are better than dentures? Read the information below to understand the Dental Implants Benefits- brought to you by Dr. Sindha Dental Clinic Bharuch.
Unique benefits of dental implants
Prevent bone loss
Whenever you lose teeth, the jawbones also start deteriorating with time. Some studies show a reduction in the volume and density of jawbones with tooth loss. The benefit of replacing the missing teeth with dental implants is that it prevents bone loss. The implants provide the necessary stimulation to the jawbone that prevents bone loss.
Mimic your natural teeth
Many different types of implants are available at Dr. Sindha Dental Clinic Bharuch. The exact shape and size of the tooth are matched with that of the implant to give you a natural feel. The implants feel so natural that no one except you and your treating surgeon can distinguish between the implant and the natural adjacent tooth.
Restore the bite force
The major benefit of replacing teeth with implants is restoring the biting force. The implants are small titanium posts that are inserted into the jawbone and fuse with it through a process called osseointegration. This process helps in restoring the bite force like no other prosthetic device.
Preserves facial aesthetics
The purpose of teeth, apart from chewing, is to support the facial structure. When we lose teeth, the facial structure loses its support, and the face starts sagging. The dental implants provide optimum support and prevent facial sagging giving you a youthful appearance.
Easy aftercare
One of the important factors that determine the success of a tooth replacement is its aftercare. The aftercare regime of dental implants is very similar to that of natural teeth. Its ease of maintenance makes it a popular choice for tooth replacement. The material used in the fabrication of implants is titanium which is safe, biocompatible, and does not decay with time.
Ease of use
Implants are a fixed solution to missing teeth. They are not removable like dentures and do not require any special adhesives for placement. There is no slippage while speaking or chewing, making them a comfortable choice.
Better stability
Dental implants are directly placed into the jawbones, making them a more stable replacement option.
Lasts a lifetime
Dentures will wear and tear with time and become loose. You might need relining and readjustments with dentures, unlike dental implants. Once placed, dental implants last a lifetime and are considered a long-term investment for oral health.
Better speech
The dentures can interfere with tongue movements and also cause speech problems. With dental implants, there is no interference with the tongue resulting in better speech.
