Dental Implants Benefits

Dental implants offer great benefits when compared to other forms of prostheses. These are the main ones:

Durability: Dental implants when placed professionally in a proper clinic, and taken good care of, can last a lifetime.

Appearance: Dental implants are custom designed so that they look the same as the neighboring natural pieces; that is, with the same color and size of the original teeth. Also, by being fixed, you get a better bite.

They protect other teeth: By not requiring additional plates or braces, the surrounding teeth are not damaged.

Cleaning is easier and more comfortable: Clean your teeth as you always have: smiling in front of the mirror with a brush and dental floss; no need to remove parts.

Dental Implants prevent bone loss: The body recognizes a tooth and a root (even if it is artificial) and acts normally. On the other hand, when a teeth is missing and not replaced by a fixed piece, the bone starts to reduce its size.
