Implants
Implants have many advantages over dentures, bridges, and other prostheses. Implants will:
*Look and function like natural teeth
*become a permanent part of the mouth, integrated with the surrounding bone
*not slip, move, or irritate gum tissue ( unlike dentures )
*provide patients a secure and stable fit
*restore up to 90% of chewing power lost with missing teeth
*improve the quality of life for a significant number of patients
*give patients more confidence when speaking and chewing
Conclusion: Dental Implants have many advantages over dentures, bridges, and other prosthetics. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Implants give patients a brighter smile, maintain the integrity of the mouth, improve oral health, prevent bone loss and enhance chewing efficiency. Every patient missing teeth, regardless of age, is a candidate for implants.
