Dental Implant Benefits

Amazing Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental Implants have revolutionized dentistry. It is amazing to give patients solutions for missing teeth that was not available in the past. Dental implants increase self-confidence, improve smiles and change lives.

Dental Implants enhance your overall quality of life

Dental implants restore your smile and give you teeth that look and function just like natural teeth. No more being embarrassed, no more hiding your teeth when you smile, and no more small smiles. With cosmetic dental implants you will smile, speak, and eat with confidence. If you have dentures or partial dentures, you can eliminate the messy denture adhesives and the slipping and rubbing of dentures with dental implant dentures.

Dental Implants preserve the integrity of facial structures

After you lose a tooth, there is rapid bone loss followed by continuous, slower bone loss. Over time, when the bone deteriorates, it leaves patients with collapsed facial contours. This causes patients to appear elderly and much older than they really are. Dental implants stimulate and preserve bone levels, thus maintaining proper facial contours.

You will eat better and healthier with dental implants.

Dental implants improve nutrition and proper digestion by allowing patients to eat whatever they would like. Patients in dentures have trouble eating fresh fruits and vegetables. With dental implants and dental implant dentures you can eat the foods you love.

Dental implants protect adjacent teeth.

Tooth replacement with outdated tooth-supported bridges requires extreme grinding down of the adjacent teeth. The removed tooth structure can never be replaced. These teeth that have been cut on have an increased risk for root canals. You cannot floss between the bridge and often the teeth supporting the bridge develop decay. This creates a very large problem because now multiple teeth are involved. The patient already has invested money into the bridge and now must pay for another bridge (or bigger bridge) or dental implants. Dental implants do not affect adjacent teeth. Once the implant is finished, patients will be able to floss between their natural teeth and the implant. The dental implant will never decay and never need a root canal. Dental implants are the most conservative treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Furthermore, dental implants are the best financial investment when replacing  missing teeth.

Partial dentures cover teeth and grab teeth with metal clasps. These clasps provide constant pressure on the natural teeth and can cause the natural teeth to loosen and fall out. Furthermore, food will get between the plastic partial and the teeth. This can cause an increase in decay on the natural teeth.

Dental Implant procedures can improve hygiene.

Dental implants look, feel and function just like natural teeth. Therefore, you clean the implant crown just like a natural tooth. There is no getting around brushing and flossing. With bridges, you have to use a floss threader to get underneath the bridge and clean out the food and plaque. Dentures and partial dentures have to be taken out after meals to clean the food out from underneath the dentures. Plus, dentures have to be taken out at night and soaked in water.

Dental Implants can be used to lock in dentures.

Say goodbye to messy dental adhesives. With dental implant dentures, you will not have to use sticky dental adhesive pastes. Dental implants can “lock” the dentures into place and completely stabilize the dentures. No more lose or slipping dentures. Eating efficiency is greatly increased with dental implant dentures.

Hello self-confidence and spontaneous laughter.

Dental implants ensure that replacement teeth will not fall out when eating, laughing, or sneezing. Many denture wearers have incredible stress levels because they are constantly worrying about and struggling with dentures that are loose and unstable. These loose dentures can fall out while eating, laughing, or sneezing. Dental implant dentures “snap” onto the dental implant to create an extremely secure fit. Dental implants fuse to the bone, so there is no way for dental implants to come out. Patients forget they even have implants.

Dental Implants preserve facial contours (no more wrinkles due to missing teeth).

When teeth are lost, the bone rapidly disappears, and bone levels continue to vanish. The collapse of facial contours leads to wrinkles and an exaggerated elderly appearance. Dental implants preserve and stimulate bone, preserve facial contours, and prevent a premature elderly appearance.

Restore your smile with Dental Implants.

A beautiful smile depends on beautiful teeth. Dental implants are the very best cosmetic option to replace missing teeth. The beauty of a porcelain implant crown is unmatched. Sure a pretty porcelain bridge will look good, but once the bone disappears underneath the fake tooth. There will be a large bone defect and a large space between the gum tissue and the fake tooth. Then the bridge will look horrible.

Taste food again with Dental Implants.

Bulky plastic dentures cover the roof of the mouth and can alter the taste of foods. With implant-supported dentures, the bulky plastic can be eliminated, allowing you to taste the foods you love.

Dental Implants can be used with the All-on-Four Implant Protocol to have permanent teeth replacement.

Dental implants can be utilized to create teeth that are permanent and do not come out. Dr. Nugent utilizes the All on 4 Four dental implant protocols to create beautiful new teeth. Patients can have their teeth removed, dental implants placed and new teeth made all in one day. Experience the best of dental implant technology.
