This state-of-the-art method for\nrestoring your complete, functional, and healthy smile touts permanent and\nlifelike results that you simply can\u2019t find with dentures or dental bridges. Is\nthis modern tooth replacement option right for you? Here are a few indications\nthat you could benefit from rebuilding your smile with dental implants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Missing One or More Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter if you\u2019re missing one tooth, several teeth, or\nyour whole smile, dental implants are here to help! A single tooth can be\nreplaced by an implant root topped with a beautiful custom-made dental crown.\nSince these are made of lifelike porcelain, you\u2019ll hardly be able to\ndistinguish your dental implant from the rest of your natural teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of using multiple dental implants to replace several\nmissing teeth in a row, an implant-retained bridge of teeth can be used\ninstead. Minimizing the number of implants placed cuts down on cost and healing\ntime while still providing the same stunning, functional results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants can even restore a full arch of missing\nteeth. An implant-retained denture can be permanently and securely anchored\ninto place to complete your smile in a comfortable, reliable way that removable\ndentures can\u2019t match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have Difficulties with Dentures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Removable dentures are a traditional and fast way to restore\nyour missing teeth, but they aren\u2019t a comfortable choice for everyone. Many\npeople find them difficult to eat with, uncomfortable to wear, and unreliable\nwhen it comes to staying in place. If you\u2019re tired of the drawbacks of wearing\ndentures, dental implants may be the perfect solution for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking for a Permanent Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that\u2019s\ndesigned to be a permanent addition to your smile. Unlike dental bridges and dentures\nthat typically need to be replaced every seven and ten years respectively, you\ncan expect your dental implants to last you several decades. They require no\nspecial care or cleaning either\u2014regular brushing and flossing is all that\u2019s\nrequired to keep your new teeth in place throughout your lifetime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost anyone with at least one missing tooth can benefit\nfrom dental implants. However, you need to have good oral health as well. Talk\nto your implant dentist today to find out if this tooth replacement option is\nright for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Dr. Derek Song of Burlington, MA understands just how\nmuch missing teeth can affect your oral health, everyday life, and\nself-confidence.
