Here’s Why Dental Implants Have Become So Popular

Dental implants have become one of the most effective ways to replace missing teeth and improve your smile. Instead of worrying about how you’ll find the confidence to meet new people, go on dates, or even smile again after losing a tooth, you can regain your confidence and self-esteem with dental implants. 

Dental implants are small screws that are implanted into the jawbone to support artificial teeth. They are much more stable than other artificial teeth options, like dentures or a bridge, which means wearers can eat almost anything they want without fear of their artificial teeth falling out. 

Here is a detailed breakdown of reasons why so many people are choosing dental implants as their permanent solution for anyone looking to replace missing teeth.

1. They’re Stable and Durable

If you’ve ever worn a denture, you know how unsettling it can be to feel it moving around in your mouth. You may be self-conscious about how it looks, and you may worry that you’re going to swallow it while you eat. You may even experience pain or discomfort while you wear it, especially if you’re sporting a traditional denture. 

Dental implants, however, are a completely different story. Unlike dentures, dental implants are anchored securely in your jawbone, which means they feel and look like real teeth. They don’t shift around or clack together, and they don’t need to be removed for cleaning.

Dental implants are also very durable. In fact, studies have shown that most dental implants last well beyond a person’s lifetime, with some patients still wearing the same set of teeth more than 10 years later.

2. They Help You Keep Your Natural Teeth

One of the most compelling reasons to choose dental implants is that they help you keep your natural teeth. 

Dentures can cause your other teeth to shift out of place, which can put pressure on your gums and increase your risk of tooth decay. Dentures also require frequent cleaning, which can cause gum inflammation or cause the gums to pull away from the teeth. 

Dental implants, on the other hand, are firmly anchored in your jawbone, which means they don’t put any pressure on your teeth. They also don’t need to be cleaned or maintained, which means your natural teeth will stay healthy and strong. 

3. They Have Cosmetic Benefits

Another compelling reason to choose dental implants is that they have aesthetic benefits. 

Dentures can look unnatural and can change the way you present yourself to the world. Dental implants, on the other hand, look and feel like real teeth. They don’t have to be removed when you eat or brush your teeth, and they can be made from porcelain or a tooth-colored resin, so they blend right into your existing teeth. 

Dentures don’t have to look fake, either, but they’re usually more expensive than dental implants and don’t last as long. They also can’t be made from natural-looking materials like dental implants can.

4. They Help You Eat What You Want

One of the most common complaints about wearing dentures is that people feel limited when it comes to eating their favorite foods. 

Dentures can be tough and uncomfortable to bite into certain foods, and they can be difficult to remove when you’re done eating. Dental implants are different because they are anchored to the jawbone, so they can withstand the pressure of food items that might break or dislodge dentures. 

They can also be removed with a soft bite on the inside of your cheek, so you can eat whatever you want without pain or discomfort.

The Bottom Line: Find a Qualified Dentist to Perform the Surgery

Dental implants are an excellent way to replace missing teeth, and they’re growing in popularity among dentists and their patients due to their stability, longevity, and cosmetic benefits. 

However, dental implants are more complicated than other procedures, so you want to make sure you find a qualified dentist who can perform the surgery and help you maintain your new teeth. You can find dentists who specialize in dental implants by visiting the American Dental Association website and searching for your state.
