Dental implants look great and feel completely natural, but there's more to appreciate about them than just the attractive, comfortable smile that they offer. Here at The Dental Practice of Lincoln Park in Chicago, Dr. Allen Momongan often suggests dental implants to patients who are ready to replace a missing tooth—read on to learn why!

Benefit 1: They look completely real.

Dental implants are the only dental restorations that replicate a natural tooth in its entirety, from its roots to the visible crown. Consisting of a post that effectively replaces the roots and a ceramic crown that is perfectly matched to the teeth around it, dental implants from your Lincoln Park dentist blend in seamlessly with your smile.

Benefit 2: Their maintenance is easy.

Dental implants don't require any special products or techniques to keep them secure. With implants, you can eat confidently without having to worry about dislodging anything or having the need to remove restorations while out in public. All you need to do is to treat them like natural teeth—regular brushing and flossing, as well as checkups at The Dental Practice of Lincoln Park twice a year, will help to maintain your dental implants for many years to come.

Benefit 3: They're long-lasting.

Another great reason to choose dental implants as a replacement for missing teeth is their longevity. Unlike other restorations, well-cared-for dental implants will never need adjustments or replacement. Our patients can expect them to last for two or more decades, even a lifetime, making them an excellent and sound investment for the future of your smile.
