\"Dentist<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Many experts consider dental implants<\/a> the ideal way to replace missing teeth because of their many unique advantages. Unlike dentures and dental bridges, these prosthetics involve surgically placing a titanium rod that fuses with your jawbone to function like a root. This is capped with a dental crown or other lifelike restoration to close the gap in your grin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are usually stronger and more reliable than the alternatives, but that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re the best solution to meet everyone\u2019s unique needs. Continue reading to learn 3 facts you should know before deciding on this procedure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Fact #1: They Can\u2019t Get Cavities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the first questions many people have about dental implants is what they\u2019re made of. Typically, these replacement teeth are topped with a tooth-shaped cap made from durable porcelain that resists discoloration and damage. That means they can\u2019t get cavities like your natural teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, that doesn\u2019t mean there\u2019s no need to worry about your oral health. The number one leading cause of failure is a form of periodontal disease known as peri-implantitis. This occurs when bacteria in your mouth penetrate the surgical site and erode the surrounding tissues, leaving the metal pole with nothing to hold it in place. You should continue to brush and floss twice daily to remove plaque and germs to maintain your new tooth consistently.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #2: They Preserve Your Jawbone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Would you be surprised to learn that your jawbone thins after adult teeth fall out? Your roots stimulate new bone cell production to keep it active and healthy every time you bite down. When one goes missing, you can lose up to 25% of the surrounding bone mass within the first year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of all the methods for rebuilding your smile, only dental implants effectively prevent this degenerative process because the metal rod placed in your jaw functions like a root. Eventually, you\u2019ll create enough new bone growth to fully encompass and fuse with the titanium, making it a permanent part of your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #3: They Boost Your Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to boosting your dental condition, these restorations also can improve your general well-being. Unlike dentures and dental bridges, they function as sturdy standalone structures in your mouth. As a result, there are fewer dietary restrictions to contend with. You can eat a wide variety of wholesome foods full of all the essential nutrients your body needs to function at its peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, they\u2019re easy to clean, which helps prevent gum disease. Although the earliest form, gingivitis, is reversible, once it progresses, it can enter your bloodstream and contribute to other issues like diabetes or heart problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re unsure whether dental implants are right for you, the best way to find out is to consult your dentist!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
