Benefits of Dental Implants
|
| • | Dental implants look and feel like your natural teeth. They are also extremely comfortable since they fuse to your bone, become permanent, and function like your real teeth. |
| • | Dental implants allow you to speak easily without any hindrances, unlike dentures that can slip while you are talking. |
| • | Slipping dentures and unstable dental bridges can make eating a chore. Dental implants can help you to chew even on hard and tough food without any discomfort. |
| • | Dental implants give you the most natural-looking smile out of all dental restorative options. |
| • | Dental implants do not require eroding down adjacent teeth, as is needed when you get a dental bridge. Since your natural teeth are not scaled down, dental implants help to preserve your long-term oral health. |
| • | Dental implants do not require messy adhesives to keep the restorations in place, unlike dentures. |
| • | Dental implants fuse to the jawbone preventing the alveolar bone from dissolving and maintaining the proper shape of your mouth. |
| • | With good oral hygiene and proper care, your dental implants can last a lifetime. |
| • | People typically under the age of 18, whose jawbone has not stopped growing. |
| • | Expecting mothers. |
| • | People who consume a lot of alcohol and heavy smokers. |
| • | People with systemic, chronic, or auto-immune diseases. |
| • | People who are undergoing cancer therapy. |
| • | People with hemophilia. |
| • | People who have recently undergone an organ transplant. |
| • | People who take immunity-suppressing drugs. |
| • | People who clench their teeth or suffer from bruxism. |

Over 3 million Americans have had dental implants, and the number is growing every day. In spite of advancements in dental care, millions of Americans lose their teeth due to dental cavities, periodontal disease, or trauma. In the past, people had only dentures and dental bridges to restore their missing teeth. Today, though, Nancy Shiba, DDS provides you with dental implants that are the best restorative options for your teeth.
