Missing teeth can be embarrassing and affect your self esteem. Fortunately, there are several options you could consider using to address a missing tooth, and each dental restoration offers a number of benefits you should know about. Here is some basic information about dental implants.

Like most restorations, dental implants are designed to look and function like your natural teeth do. Dental implants are also extremely durable. In fact, they can last a lifetime if they’re cared for well. But even if implants are damaged, they’re generally easy to repair.

Another major benefit of implants is that they stop the supporting jawbone from decaying. Because your implants are actually placed in the jawbone, they stimulate growth in the jawbone. This stimulation stops your jawbone from deteriorating, Still, there are a few things you’ll have to do—and avoid doing—if you decide on this restoration option. We recommend giving up tobacco products, scheduling regular checkups, and brushing and flossing daily.

Once your implant has been placed, you’ll be able to chew and eat comfortably again. Because your implant is secured to your jawbone, it should be extremely sturdy. You should also be able to easily make sounds that may have been difficult to pronounce properly before.
