Can I look younger with dental implants?
The answer is a straightforward yes!
Dental implants are a dental procedure or option when you need to replace a single tooth, or when you’re missing several teeth in different areas of your mouth.
This treatment involves surgically mounting a titanium metal post or frame into your upper or lower jaw. A replacement tooth is then mounted to the implant, which allows the tooth to remain in place.
Basically, a dental implant provides a permanent base for a replacement tooth that is natural looking and permanent!
1. It prevents “Facial collapse.”
Dental implants do more than just improve your appearance or your smile; they also improve your oral health.
As soon as you lose a tooth, you are at risk for further tooth loss, jawbone deterioration, and facial collapse.
Facial collapse not only changes the shape of your face but also makes you look older. Fortunately, our dental implant dentists at Partha Dental Clinics can help you find a solution that works for your smile.
It’s never too late to improve your oral health. If you’ve already lost jawbone tissue, ask one of our dentists if you’re a candidate for a bone graft. That way, you’ll have sufficient jawbone tissue to stabilize your implants!
2. Avoid Wearing Dentures
There are many ways in which we age. However, simply shrugging off poor teeth as part of aging can undermine more than your looks. People who wear dentures for years will eventually experience
facial collapse once their lower jaw deteriorates enough.
When this happens, it becomes difficult to refit dentures so patients can chew without pain.
Even well-fitting dentures will occasionally slip when you cough, sneeze, laugh, or even smile. Abrupt movements such as these cause dentures to shift. While this can be discreetly corrected by gently biting down and swallowing, many of our patients would prefer to avoid this hassle altogether.
Dental implants are designed to fuse with bone, causing them to become a permanent fixture in your mouth. This means you can comfortably enjoy your favorite foods without the added worry that your teeth will slip or cause you discomfort.
3. Smile with Confidence
If you’ve ever felt self-conscious about missing teeth, you owe it to yourself to schedule an appointment with one of our dental implant dentists. Many of our patients report feeling more confident after getting implants!
Unlike dentures, you don’t have to worry about learning how to eat or speak around a bulky oral appliance. Dental implants, thankfully, look and function like natural teeth.
4. Stop Further Tooth Loss
If you’ve lost your teeth due to aging, injury, or illness, call one of our dentists as soon as possible to explore your tooth replacement options. A dental implant can help you look younger by filling the gaps in your smile and preventing further tooth loss.
Without an implant, the surrounding teeth will tilt toward the open space and eventually fall out. Our dentists at Partha Dental Clinics are the best and can prevent this and restore your smile with the use of dental implants to replace any missing teeth, making you younger and smarter!
