7 Smart Reasons to Get Dental Implants
Tooth loss can lower the quality of life and oral health by causing problems like bone loss, shifting teeth, decay, and gum disease. Most people with missing teeth are good candidates for dental implants. Through implant treatment, Drs. Julie and Joseph Boulos from All Coast Dental in San Diego, California, can permanently fill the gaps caused by tooth loss to restore the beauty of your smile.
Why Get Implants? Â
Implants give your smile strength, stability, and beauty, which is everything you could ask for in replacement teeth after real teeth go missing. If restorative dental treatment is in your future, here are seven smart reasons to get dental implants to make your smile whole again:
1. Implants are Strong and Secure  Â
Small titanium posts called implants are surgically inserted into your jaw to support prosthetic teeth if your natural teeth fall off. These posts will act as tooth roots by permanently fusing with your bone. By attaching your new teeth to the implants, Dr. Boulos can make them as strong and secure as natural teeth, allowing you to talk, laugh, smile, and eat confidently and easily.
2. Implants Don’t Need Help from Other Teeth  Â
Unlike a traditional bridge, which needs support from adjacent healthy teeth, implants are a stand-alone treatment. They function independently to support replacement teeth and restore the health and beauty of your smile.
3. Implants Restore Full Chewing Power
Implant teeth have the stability of real teeth as they’re anchored in place by artificial tooth roots. They restore full chewing power so you can eat all the foods you love, from a juicy steak to raw fruits and veggies to crunchy almonds and everything in between!
4. Implants Improve Oral Health
Implants prevent bone loss, which is common after losing natural teeth. They stimulate bone growth to keep your jaw healthy and strong. Implants also support remaining healthy teeth to keep them from shifting. Dr. Boulos can create a fixed bridge to perfectly fill the gap left by multiple missing teeth, keeping adjacent teeth in check to preserve the alignment of your smile.
5. Implants are Easy to Care For
Implants are brushed and flossed just like real teeth. Good oral care combined with regular dental checkups and cleanings will help keep implants looking and feeling their best long-term.
6. Implants Look and Feel Natural
Implants replace complete teeth, including the roots, giving your mouth a natural appearance and feel. Dr. Boulos will customize your new teeth to give your smile an authentic, pleasing appearance.
7. Implants Can Last a Lifetime
Titanium implants can last for decades or, in many cases, a lifetime! Quality restorations can last 15 or more years. When your restorations wear down, you can place new ones on the same implants to keep your smile going strong well into the future.
