Dental Implants Offer Key Advantages For Patients

How much good can prosthetic dental work really do for someone who has experienced tooth loss? The right restoration can give you confidence in your smile, but will it have any practical benefits? Is it possible to find a prosthetic that can benefit your dental function, or your long-term oral health? Dental implants have offered important advantages to people who are missing teeth. An implant acts like a replacement for your tooth root – when held by an implant, your restoration can stay stable and comfortable. This can lead to more confidence in your bite, and important support for your jaw. Your McKinney, TX dentist is ready to discuss the implant placement and restoration process with you.

What Can I Gain By Having A Dental Implant Put In Place To Hold A Prosthetic?

Dental implants are relied on to give support and stability to a dental prosthetic. While one implant is effective in its role as a prosthetic tooth root, multiple implants are effective at stabilizing a larger restoration, like a complete denture. With an implant holding your prosthetic, you can have an easier time biting and chewing, as you will once again enjoy even bite support. You can also limit the movement of neighboring teeth, as an implant keeps its neighboring roots more secure. In the long run, dental implants help you avoid troubles with jawbone deterioration, which will occur for patients who have experienced tooth loss.

Making Arrangements To Place Your Dental Implant

While other practices can ask patients to see a specialist for implant placement, our practice is able to help many people at our office. Eliminating the need for a specialist can make the process of receiving dental implants easier, and more pleasant. After confirming that you are a good candidate for placement, your dentist will set up your appointment. An implant will require a period of healing before you can have your restoration. Once that healing period has taken place, a lifelike prosthetic will be carefully set in place, and you can once again show off a complete smile!

Enjoying Life With A Complete Smile

Your stable prosthetic can make you more comfortable with common tasks like biting, chewing, and speaking. People who have experienced the loss of several teeth can once again enjoy certain foods that proved difficult to chew. You can also feel more confident in your appearance.

As time passes, people who have experienced tooth loss can lose jawbone mass – this is because the roots of teeth encourage the nutrient delivery to the bone. Implants imitate the stimulation those roots once provided, so you can maintain a healthy jaw.
