Millard Roth and Anand Parekh can assist patients with their choice by educating them on dental implants vs. other tooth restoration options available. Dental implants are metal posts (specifically titanium) that function like a natural tooth root and are restored over the top abutment with various dental restorations. They are an excellent choice for many of our patients who explore the advantages of this treatment compared to partials, complete dentures, and dental bridges.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
There are many advantages to using dental implants to restore the smile after tooth loss, including:
- Improved appearance – Dental implants look and feel like natural teeth, which can help improve your appearance and self-confidence.
- Improved oral health – Dental implants help maintain the health of your jawbone and surrounding teeth since they replace missing teeth and keep the jawbone from shrinking.
- Improved function – Dental implants allow you to eat and speak normally without worrying about embarrassing slippage or instability.
- Added comfort – Unlike traditional dentures, dental implants do not require adhesives or unique cleaning solutions, so they are more comfortable to wear and care for.
- Reduced risk of tooth decay – Dental implants do not decay like natural teeth, so you don’t have to worry about cavities or other dental problems.
- Long-lasting – With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
