Have you been thinking about dental implants because your denture slips all the time, or you even lost count of how many times of repairing and replacing your dentures? You can now enjoy your food fully by chewing comfortably like you used too with dental implants.
“I am afraid of the pain if I get dental implants.”
The first thing that comes to our mind when we think about implants is that they are painful and take a long time to heal. That is not entirely true! Did you know that a simple extraction is more painful than a dental implant? According to PubMed.gov, out of 234 patients who have had implants, only 2% of the patients experienced severe pain after 24 hours of their surgeries.
With today’s advancement, now you can achieve pain-free and faster dental implants procedures all while having your original smile.
So what are dental implants?
A dental implant is a small but tough base for permanent or detachable substitute teeth that are made to match with your other natural teeth. They have many aesthetic benefits like boosting your confidence and helping you achieve the perfect smile again, however they also play a crucial role in the function of your mouth.
If you have a missing tooth, getting a dental implant can help support a healthy bite and keep each tooth in place while supporting a healthy jawbone and preventing your jawbone bone from declining.
How can dental implants benefit you?
Enhanced self-esteem
Dental implants are basically like your natural teeth. They can give you back your smile with maximum comfort and help you gain more confidence when you are out hanging with your family and friends.
Enhanced speech
Just like retainers, wearing dentures may lead to unclear speech and not to mention, they can slip out of place causing you to mumble your words. Dental implants allow you to speak comfortably without worrying the teeth might slip.
Convenience
With dental implants, you do not have to remove your dentures, clean and soak them overnight anymore. Not to mention the smell of dentures.
Durability
Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last as long as you have them.
