Benefits of Dental Implants for Tooth Replacement
Dental implants are stable, natural, and permanent, and are a significant advantage over other tooth replacement options.
For tooth replacement, dental implants are easily the best option. Great looking, totally stable and permanent, implants outperform both traditional dentures and dental bridges. Here is more about the benefits patients get from replacing missing teeth with implants.
Natural Appearance
Implants are placed directly in the gums and have no exterior hardware. As a result, they look more natural than both dentures and bridges. In contrast to dentures, no artificial plastic gums are used as a foundation for implants. Unlike with bridges, neighboring teeth are left untouched.
Supportive Stability
Just like real teeth, implants from our dentist in Northridge are stabilized in the jaw bone. In fact, the metal posts used with implants make implants even more stable than natural teeth. Implants never slip or click, and they fit perfectly for a bite that feels natural.
Permanent Results
Unlike dentures and bridges, dental implants can last patients for life as long as they take care of them properly. Also in contrast to those other options, implants prevent the jaws from deteriorating over time.
Most adult patients with missing teeth are candidates for implants, especially with bone grafting available. Patients can schedule a consultation with our expert in dental implants in Northridge to learn more about the benefits of replacing lost teeth with implants.
