Unlike dentures and bridges, these restorations are surgically inserted into your jaw and eventually fuse with the bone for longer-lasting and more reliable results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that\u2019s not the only reason to consider undergoing this popular procedure. Continue reading to learn more about 3 of the cosmetic benefits of getting dental implants to make an informed decision regarding the future of your smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perk #1: Customizable, Lifelike Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You might hesitate to schedule this procedure if you\u2019re scared that you\u2019ll invest time and personal resources into new teeth only for them to look unnatural or stand out like a sore thumb. If you\u2019re worried your implants will draw unwanted attention, you can thankfully set your concerns aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These teeth typically contain a titanium rod that\u2019s capped with a dental crown (or other appropriate restoration) that\u2019s usually made from tooth-colored porcelain or ceramic. These materials reflect light like enamel, and can be carefully customized to resemble the hue, size, and shape of your natural pearly whites for seamless results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, they are less porous than your enamel, so they are somewhat more stain-resistant and don\u2019t respond to teeth whitening. If you\u2019re unhappy with the shade of your grin, you might consider undergoing cosmetic services before getting dental implants for more consistent coloring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perk #2: Close the Gap in Your Grin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You rely on two complete arches of teeth to perform basic tasks, such as eating, speaking, and smiling confidently. Unfortunately, the spaces left behind by missing teeth can impact your daily quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, you might feel self-conscious about the sudden changes to your appearance. Some people might even become so worried about being judged for their looks that they avoid spending time with others, or develop anxiety or depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are the only replacement teeth that function as sturdy, standalone structures to upgrade your grin and improve its functionality. Not only can you eat and speak without worrying that your new tooth might fall out of place, but you\u2019ll look and feel like the most attractive version of yourself by closing the troublesome gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perk #3: Preserve Your Facial Structure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that your jaw starts thinning after tooth loss? Without a root to stimulate additional bone growth with each bite down, you can potentially lose up to 25% of the surrounding bone density within a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the foundation of your mouth degenerates, the muscles and tissues anchored to it start to slacken. This can result in changes to your appearance, like a more prominent chin, sunken or hollowed cheeks, and additional facial wrinkles that leave you looking older than you feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike dentures and bridges, implants contain a support pole that functions like a root to preserve your jawbone and maintain your beautiful facial structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have additional questions about the benefits of getting dental implants, you can learn more by consulting your dentist directly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients at Dr. George Salem and Associates, PC, benefit from a team of experts eager to help you build and maintain happy, healthy teeth and gums.
