Dental implants are an incredibly popular solution for replacing missing teeth that offer great benefits both in looks and function! While many patients are familiar with the basics of dental implants, there are several interesting and lesser-known facts that might surprise you! Continue reading to learn five fascinating facts about these implants<\/a> that go beyond the basics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Implants Mimic Natural Teeth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the most impressive things about dental implants is their ability to mimic the look, feel, and function of natural teeth. The titanium implant fixture that goes into your jawbone eventually fuses with it to create a sturdy attachment point. Once your custom-made restoration is placed, it blends seamlessly into your smile while renewing much of your bite force. This allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. They Have an Extremely High Success Rate<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants have one of the highest success rates of any dental procedure. Studies show that with proper care and skilled placement, they will integrate up to 98 percent of the time! This is mainly because dental technology has advanced quickly in terms of diagnostics, planning, and placement techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. You Can Prevent Bone Loss with Dental Implants<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When a tooth is lost, your jawbone naturally begins to deteriorate due to lack of stimulation. Over time, this can lead to a sunken appearance and oral health issues like worn enamel, bite issues, and pain in your temporomandibular joint (TMJ.) Dental implants are the only tooth-loss solution that specifically addresses bone resorption, stimulating the bone to keep it strong and dense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. They Are a Very Versatile Treatment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are incredibly versatile and can be used to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even support a full set of dentures. Depending on your needs, your dentist can customize the treatment plan to provide the best possible outcome. For example, implant-supported bridges can replace several missing teeth in a row, while implanted dentures offer a secure full-mouth restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Dental Implants Are Low Maintenance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Caring for dental implants is very simple. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups are all that\u2019s needed to keep your implants healthy and strong. With proper care, your implants can last for decades, or even a lifetime!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, there is much more to dental implants than meets the eye. If you\u2019re considering your own implant restorations, the first step is scheduling a consultation with your dentist. There, you can make a plan to restore your smile and vastly improve your quality of life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
