The dental implants are basically the best replacements if you have lost your natural tooth.
There are several advantages that speak in favor of choosing dental implants.

  • They look extremely natural. Someone with a dental implant denture will have a beautiful smile, just like he/she would have a natural set of healthy teeth.
  • Dental implants not only look good, but they also feel like natural teeth. It takes a little bit of time until one gets used to them, but after that, you will never have any problems.
  • With aging, natural tooth loss occurs. And, with that teeth loss, the bones in the jaw area will also start to collapse. If you have dental implants, the entire bone structure of the face stays in place.
  • When dental bridge work is done to a patient, the teeth in the proximity of the missing teeth will be altered. This is not the case with dental implants, because none of your healthy teeth will suffer any changes or adjustments in order to make the implant fit.
  • With dental implants, patients can eat and chew regularly just about any kind of food. With dentures, you may already know how embarrassing it can become to have a bite from an apple, without using quickly the adhesive.
However, in order to become a successful candidate you must have healthy gums and strong bones that will hold the artificial tooth replacement.
Bone grafting is routinely used for people who do not have enough or strong jaw bones for the dental implant to be biologically inserted.
