Benefits of Dental Implants

Are you looking for a lifelike restoration to replace your missing teeth?

Ever had a nightmare in which your teeth fall out? Many people have. Now…what if that dream was a reality? For millions of Americans, tooth loss is very real and very upsetting. The good news is that we have incredible modern technology that allows our Arlington, VA, dentist Dr. Joseph Reed to provide realistic tooth replacement options such as dental implants to restore smiles.

Of course, before deciding whether implants are right for you, you may wish to learn more about what makes this tooth-replacement so special. Here are the benefits associated with getting dental implants here in Arlington, VA.,

They are permanent: Implants are small metal posts made from a biocompatible material that makes it possible for the jawbone to fuse with the implant to become one. This makes implants a permanent part of the jawbone once this natural fusion takes place. Once you get your implant you have it for life.

They are just like real teeth: Who doesn’t want a tooth replacement that looks, feels and even acts like the real thing? If this is the top priority when it comes to choosing your tooth replacement, then you may wish to consider dental implants. After all, they are truly the next best thing to natural teeth.

They restore chewing and speaking: Anyone dealing with tooth loss understands just how upsetting it can be to eat, chew or even talk with gaps in their smile. Everything from lisps to digestive problems can impact those with tooth loss. Luckily, dental implants act just like real teeth that once they are placed, you’ll be able to eat anything you want without difficulty chewing and you’ll enjoy fully restored speech.

They preserve the jawbone: Bone loss is a serious complication of tooth loss and one that happens rather quickly after losing a tooth; however, one of the major benefits of getting dental implants is that this tooth replacement actually stimulates the jawbone to produce new bone cells, which prevents it from deteriorating. A dental implant can actually preserve the health of your jawbone.
