Benefits of Implants
Dental implants are teeth that look and feel just like your own.
With dental implants you can:
- Eat whatever you like. Implants can significantly improve your health by giving you the ability to chew a wider variety of foods.
- Smile with confidence. Discolored or missing teeth can ruin your appearance. Implant supported restorations help increase your self-esteem.
- Express yourself clearly or simply be understood. Implants increase the retention and stability of your teeth.
Improve your external facial structure and decrease the likelihood of continued bone loss.
At Southeastern Dental Associates, the benefits most frequently cited by our dental implant patients are:
- That the replacement teeth look, feel and function like natural teeth.
- That foods taste better and appetite is improved.
- That it feels good to smile again with embarrassment over missing teeth
- That they are able to chew with pain or gum irritation
- That they can speak more confidently than before the implants
- That they have peace of mind because implants are a permanent solution
Another very important benefit can be the reduction or elimination of bone atrophy or shrinkage, commonly associated with loss of teeth.
