Do you think that dental implants sound like an effective choice for your smile? However, some of your uncertainty relies on the fact that you don’t know if they really offer anything that sets them apart from other prosthetics? For starters, there are most definitely some things that you won’t have to worry about if you choose implants. Find out more and then learn everything you need to know during a visit.
#1: Damaging Remaining Teeth
A traditional bridge will require you to rely on support from remaining natural teeth. A partial denture will need support from teeth, too. Dental implants are free-standing, which means you don’t need to worry about affecting nearby teeth.
#2: Keeping Up With Your Prosthetics
When you choose dentures, you are going to be taking them out of your mouth, then putting them back in your mouth. You’ll take them out to clean them. While this may offer some benefits, it can also lead to drawbacks. You need to cleanse them separately from your smile, you need to remember to store them carefully, etc. With dental implants, they’re just part of your grin.
#3: Repairs And Replacement
Yes, you may eventually need to replace a dental crown, which restores your dental implant. However, those implants basically become part of your body (an extension of it). As a result, there’s generally no reason to need to repair or replace them. Take good care of your smile and they’ll be there for life. Pretty simple, unlike dentures and bridges, which will require repairs and replacement.
