Living with multiple tooth loss can be challenging, as tooth loss can affect many aspects of your life. Rather than alter your lifestyle to accommodate your situation, Dr. Jae Cho recommends replacing lost teeth with implants. Implants can restore your smile’s strength, function, and beauty in the long term, saving you money over the long haul. Whether you want to replace one lost tooth or many, your smile can be made healthy and whole again with implants. Sun City, Arizona, residents can come to Wildflower Dental for implant treatment.
Getting implants is a lengthy process that requires surgery, which is why it yields such long-term results. The implant itself is a titanium screw that is surgically inserted into your jaw. In the months that follow, this screw will integrate with your bone system, becoming a permanent foundation for your new tooth/teeth. The implant will function like a tooth root, giving your restoration the feel and function of natural teeth. Once the implant has fused with your bone system, Dr. Cho will attach an abutment and restoration (crown, implant denture, or implant bridge) to complete your smile. Dental implants can give your smile the same attributes as natural teeth, which include:
Implant teeth can be custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with natural teeth for a picture-perfect smile. Your restorations will so closely resemble your natural teeth that no one will be able to tell the difference. Beautiful aesthetics are a trademark of implants.
Your restorations are anchored by titanium “tooth roots,” so they will have the same stability and support as real teeth. You can eat, laugh, and talk confidently, knowing your teeth will never come loose.
Implants will dramatically improve your ability to chew so you can enjoy all your favorite cuisines. At the same time, you will feel no discomfort or pain, as is often associated with ill-fitting dentures.
After losing natural teeth, your jawbone may start to deteriorate as there are no tooth roots to stimulate bone growth. Implants help prevent jawbone atrophy by providing the stimulation your jaw needs. In so doing, implants help you retain jaw support to keep your facial features from sagging.
Unlike dentures, implants don’t require special care. Good oral hygiene habits and routine dental cleanings will keep your implants healthy and strong, just like your natural teeth.
Through diligent care, implants can last the rest of your life, making it unnecessary to repeat the procedure in the future. Strength, durability, and resistance to decay add to this treatment’s longevity, making it an excellent long-term option for replacing lost teeth.
