Dental implants look like real teeth, feel like real teeth and last for a long time.  Since dental implants are allowing our patients to eat what they want, it is changing their lives.  Dental implants help preserve the jawbone so you can maintain or restore a youthful appearance.  Dental implants will allow you to eat the nutritious foods that you want so you can maintain your overall health.  And because dental implants are comfortable and natural looking, they will improve your confidence.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Improved chewing and taste

Because chewing on dental implants is like chewing on real teeth, you are able to eat all the foods you want and not limited by what you can chew.  Alternative options for replacing teeth (dentures, partials) won’t allow you to chew with the same force.  Subsequently, you aren’t able to eat the hard foods (nuts, salads, chips) you want.  Dentures and partials also aren’t stable to enough to allow for biting on front teeth which makes it difficult to eat sandwiches/apples.  Teeth supported by dental implants are also less bulky than dentures and partials that cover the roof of the mouth.  Removing the bulk will allow you to taste and enjoy your food.

Improved Stability

With dental implants, you don’t have to worry about your teeth falling out when you eat, laugh, yawn or sneeze.  Unfortunately, with dentures and partials that is not the case.  And because you can rely on your implant teeth staying in place, you don’t have to use messy adhesives.

Improved Overall Health

The softer foods people eat, that are often high in carbohydrates, when they can’t chew well can lead to diabetes.  The weak chewing forces provided by dentures and partials also leads to people swallowing foods whole, which can result in acid reflux and digestion issues. Dental implants will allow you to eat the nutritious foods that are important for your overall health.  You will be able to eat the fresh fruits and vegetables, meats and grains that are required in a healthy diet.

Improved Confidence

Your face will glow with every smile!  You will no longer have to hide your smile or be embarrassed by missing teeth!  This in turn leads to improved self-confidence, improved social confidence and an overall improved well-being!
