When it comes to a person’s smile, damaged or even missing teeth can cause serious harm to self-confidence. Afterall, the smile is one of the first things you notice about a person, so it is understandable that one can feel ashamed or embarrassed if they are living with damaged or missing teeth. Therefore, there are many people around the world who try to address these issues by getting dental dentures, or false teeth, which can help with their situation.
However, the experts at Dental Art Implant Clinics recommend seeking out dental implant treatment instead of regular dentures due to its many long-term benefits.
1. Solution That Can Last a Lifetime
Unlike dentures that technically can be used for only 5 to 10 years and then require to be remade, a surgically inserted dental implant can last you a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. The screw and the abutment connecting the dental crown are made from titanium which is friendly to the human body and exceptionally durable.
2. Work, Feel and Look Like Natural Teeth
Another set of benefits that the experts note are the functionality, aesthetics, and feeling of dental implants. Each tooth is custom made to ensure a seamless and unnoticeable fit in the mouth. The surgical process and the way dental implants are built, ensure that they can restore the functionality of the damaged or missing natural teeth.
3. Stable and Firm
We have all seen scenes in TV ads, shows and movies where dentures suddenly fall out of a person’s mouth. Maybe it has even happened to you or someone who you know in real life. Well, that cannot happen with dental implants.
Considering that they are surgically inserted inside the person’s jawbone with the help of a titanium screw, you can rest assured that they will remain firmly attached.
4. Maintain Facial Aesthetics
Okay, this is a big one. According to the team at Dental Art Implant Clinics, wearing dentures can deform your jawbone. Experts note: “Since dentures only restore the visible top part your teeth and not the root of the teeth which is under the gums, over time your jawbone can start deforming causing your cheeks to droop which can create an older looking face.“
On the other hand, by restoring the functionality of natural teeth, dental implants can help you maintain your proper facial structure.
5. Easy to Maintain
The last and the final benefit is the sheer convenience of maintaining dental implants. Unlike dentures that require removal for proper cleaning and in addition require additional solutions and creams, dental implants only require the same attention as your regular teeth. Floss, brush, rinse with mouthwash and visit your dentist once a year to ensure that your dental implants stay happy.
