Improved Appearance
Dental implants look and feel like your natural teeth. They’re designed to blend in seamlessly with your existing teeth and improve your overall appearance.
Better Speech
Dental implants can have a positive impact on speech, particularly for those who have missing teeth or wear dentures. The stability provided by dental implants, which are anchored securely into the jawbone, can prevent slippage or movement of replacement teeth while speaking, which can improve clarity and confidence.Overall, dental implants can help individuals speak more clearly and confidently, enhancing their quality of life.
Improved eating ability
Eating should not involve pain or difficulty. With only a fraction of the chewing capability, dentures are not nearly as efficient at chewing as natural teeth with only a fraction of the chewing capability. Additionally, dentures can shift in the mouth causing discomfort while eating. Dental implants can provide up to 100% of the chewing efficiency of natural teeth and even strengthen the jaw through a process called osseointegration. They do this all while maintaining the comfort and feel of natural teeth.
Improved Oral Health
Dental implants can significantly improve oral health in several ways. One of the primary benefits is that they provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, which can help to restore proper oral function and prevent further damage to surrounding teeth and gums.
Easier Speech
Missing teeth and dentures can cause a lisp or whistling sound while talking. This can make it hard to communicate with and be understood by others. With dental implants, you can eliminate these symptoms and talk with ease.
Improved comfort
Dental implants are custom-made to fit the individual patient’s mouth, ensuring a comfortable fit. Unlike dentures, which can slide around or require messy adhesives to stay in place, dental implants feel like a natural part of the mouth. Dental implants are permanently fixed in your mouth, eliminating the discomfort and inconvenience of removable dentures.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are dental implants painful?
Dentists often perform this procedure while patients are under local anesthetic, so you should not feel any pain during the procedure. Afterward, you may experience some discomfort, but this can be managed with pain medication. Your dentist will also provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure a fast recovery.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. It’s important to follow a good oral hygiene routine, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups, to ensure the longevity of your implant.
How long does the dental implant procedure take?
The dental implant procedure typically takes several appointments over the course of a few months. This allows time for the post to fuse with the bone and for the gums to heal properly. The exact length of the procedure will depend on your individual needs and the complexity of your case.
Are dental implants covered by insurance?
The cost of dental implants varies depending on the number of implants needed and the complexity of the procedure. However, many dental insurance plans cover the cost of dental implants. We’ll work with you to determine your insurance coverage and help you maximize your benefits.
