Advantages of Dental Implants

If you have a missing tooth or if you are facing the loss of a tooth, it’s important to replace it to prevent damage or loss of other teeth. And if you are replacing a missing tooth, dental implants are your best option.

Dental implants can be permanent replacements unlike dentures that need to be replaced frequently, and dental bridges which will likely need to be replaced every ten years. Although the crown atop the dental implant may need to be replaced after about ten years, the implant itself is a lifetime restoration if properly cared for.

Dental implants are highly attractive, virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

Dental implants do not slip or click when you talk or eat, like dentures. They also do not interfere with your speech as dentures sometimes can.

Dental implants allow you to eat all your favorite foods. There are no dietary restrictions with dental implants.

Dental implants require no special care, and unlike dental bridges they do not require modification of adjacent healthy teeth to support the replacement tooth.

To learn more about the advantages of dental implants, please schedule your consultation with Denver dentist Dr. Scott Greenhalgh today.
