\"DentistThere are many options to treat lost teeth, but only one method replaces both the root and the crown. 500,000 people every year are investing in dental implants<\/a>, but are they worth the cost? Absolutely! Here are 6 reasons they are worth every penny.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

1. Look Like Real Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An implant post is surgically placed into the jaw to serve as a new root. It will be hidden below your gum line to provide your restoration with unmatched support. Your new tooth is customized to blend in with your real teeth, so no one will know it isn’t natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Preserve Your Jawbone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can lose 25% of your jaw’s density within the first year of missing a tooth because it isn’t being stimulated by the root. As you lose more bone, your facial shape will change and you’ll be at risk of additional tooth loss. As the only treatment to replace a root, it’s the only method to stop your jaw from shrinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Unmatched Biting Force<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Traditional dental prosthetics only recreate the portions of teeth above the gum line. Although effective, eating certain foods can be difficult. Dental implants have the support of your jawbone to restore 70% of your natural biting force. You can eat anything you want and will never have to worry about slipping or irritation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Reduce Dental Expenses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’ll avoid many common issues caused by tooth loss by keeping your jaw healthy, like cavities and gum disease. As a result, you’re less likely to need costly treatments later to save money down the road. Dental implants can last for decades, unlike traditional treatments that need to be replaced every few years, making them the most cost-effective option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Last for Decades<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are proven to last for 30 years or longer with the right aftercare, like brushing and flossing. You’ll never have to budget for replacements to enjoy a long-lasting solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Peace of Mind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are the most reliable method of treating tooth loss. With over a 95% success rate, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that you’ll never again have to worry about missing teeth being the focal point of your smile. You’ll boost your confidence and quality of life using a method that’s proven to surpass the test of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although you might pay more upfront for dental implants, they are more affordable than you might think. You won’t have to pay a lump sum because the process takes many steps. You can even use your dental insurance to lower the cost of certain aspects of your treatment plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll invest in the best by choosing dental implants because their benefits are priceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
