Unable to smile or speak with confidence because of missing teeth? Are you tired of having food stuck under
your denture? With dental implants, you have a long-term solution to restore appearance, function and speech, as well as eliminate all the discomforts associated with wearing dentures.
It’s time to consider dental implants if you are suffering from the following conditions:
Dental implants are commonly used as alternatives to dentures and bridges for tooth replacement. No more misplaced dentures or embarrassing moments of denture dropping out when speaking. no need for shaving down of healthy adjacent tooth for bridges which sometimes require root canal treatment. Some find dental implants to be more convenient to perform hygiene cleansing.
If you have a missing or failing tooth, a single dental tooth implant replacement has great benefits over the alternative options of a bridge or denture.
If you are missing more than one tooth in a row, the gap can be replaced with individual implants or by joining a few implants together to hold a bridge.
If you are missing all your teeth and thinking of a fixed solution where you no longer have to remove your denture to clean, the implant-supported hybrid denture is an excellent option.
If you are missing all your teeth in a jaw and are losing confidence socially due to an unstable denture, this is a cost-effective option of replacing all your teeth. The denture is held firmly in place with a minimum of 2 of 4 implants.
