If you want a long-term solution to missing teeth, dental implants are the best thing that’s happened to dentistry. They restore lost chewing ability, improve appearance, and give real self-confidence to patients who want to replace a tooth or multiple teeth.
Our patients who opt for dental implants over other restorative treatments enjoy an array of benefits. Because implants are anchored like a real tooth, they provide security for chewing and prevent sore spots that often arise as a result of loose bridges, dentures, and partials. When you lose a tooth, the jawbone often shrinks as a result. Replacing a tooth with an implant will prevent this shrinkage and stimulate bone growth. Implants are also an attractive option because they do not require bonding to neighboring teeth, which inhibits flossing ability.
Best of all, implants are designed to last a lifetime. Their success has been recorded for more than 40 years!
