Every year, millions of people enjoy the benefits of restored smiles and oral functionality, thanks to dental implants. Prior to their existence, sufferers of tooth loss either had to deal with a missing tooth or wear dentures if they were missing multiple teeth. Restorative dental technology has come a very long way, and there\u2019s a good chance that the dental implant treatment method and the materials used will only continue to improve throughout the next several decades. Keep reading to learn more about why dental implants have a 95% success rate and the many benefits they can bring to you if you are dealing with tooth loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Makes Dental Implants So Successful?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants have become the most popular solution for tooth loss for a good reason. Here are some of the factors that make them such a great choice when it comes to tooth replacement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional Bone Growth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When a tooth is lost, there is obviously an empty space left behind. While it affects the overall look of your smile, you might be surprised to hear that it can also begin to cause bone loss beneath the surface. That\u2019s right, your jawbone and the roots of your teeth are more \u201cconnected\u201d than you might realize! Without the tooth in place, the bone beneath it will begin to deteriorate over time, which can have a negative impact on your facial structure. With dental implants, the implant will fuse with the jawbone, just like a natural tooth\u2019s root, and actually promote new bone growth! Not only will the aesthetics of your smile be restored, but you\u2019ll be able to maintain a youthful facial appearance for much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protection for Your Gums and Other Teeth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You might think that losing a tooth will only affect that one spot in your mouth, but that is unfortunately not the case. Your teeth and gums work together to keep bacteria from infiltrating the soft tissues of your mouth and making its way into your bloodstream. Without a tooth in place, the soft tissues around the gums are left exposed, which can allow bacteria to get in. This can ultimately lead to gum disease or additional decay and potential loss of the surrounding teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Permanence, Stability, and Improved Confidence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve ever had dentures or known someone who has, then you know the challenges that can come with them. One of the best things about dental implants is that they are totally permanent. After fusing to the jawbone, there is no chance of them moving around or becoming cumbersome when you speak or eat, and you won\u2019t have to worry about misplacing them when you need to remove them for cleaning purposes as you do with dentures. Plus, not having to deal with impermanent teeth that can tend to move around or become displaced while you\u2019re talking can do wonders for your level of self-confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have experienced tooth loss, you don\u2019t have to go on suffering. Talk to your dentist about dental implants as an option for restoration, and love your smile again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
