The Benefits of Dental Implants in Hoffman Estates, IL
Implants and implant-supported restorations offer many advantages over removable tooth replacements. Dental implants:
Provide No Risk of Falling Out or Slipping
Once a surgeon places dental implants in the jaw bone, they will essentially become one with the bone. This will make implants secure and durable enough to support your new teeth.
Your new dental restoration will not move around or shift in your mouth, and you will never have to worry about it falling out. Traditionally, restorations like removable dentures use adhesive to stay in place, which is often insufficient. Dentures can slip or fall out of the mouth. Dental implants will integrate with your natural jawbone during the healing process to ensure that you have the proper support.
Improve Speech
We secure dental restorations to dental implants to prevent your speech from slurring and allow you to speak normally. Our office will fabricate the restoration from the natural structure of your mouth. Your new teeth should feel and function similarly to the teeth you lost. This way, when you speak and make sounds, it will sound normal.
Additionally, your restoration will be secured and will not shift or slip around in your mouth. Slipping restorations often cause slurred speech.
Prevent Bone Loss and Gum Recession
The bone in the jaw and gum tissues has essential roles in oral health. The jaw bone is meant to support the teeth! When teeth are missing, they no longer have a functioning role.
If you have missing teeth, your gum line will slowly recede. Without the tooth root structure, the bone will begin to deteriorate. Dental implant restorations are the perfect solution to halt bone loss and gum recession. Implants are placed in the natural jawbone underneath the gum tissue. Once implants heal fully, they support surrounding bone and gum tissue like a natural tooth.
Prevent Facial Sagging
Teeth help keep our facial muscles and bones intact. If you are missing teeth, bone loss in your face occurs, and the facial muscles will weaken. The result is facial sagging, which will also lead to deep wrinkles. Essentially, it will look like your face is collapsing inward. A common complaint is this makes people look much older than they are.
A dental implant-supported restoration will allow the jaw bone to regenerate and keep the facial muscles strong. These restorations also replace teeth above the gums, which contributes to a fuller, more structured appearance.
Improve Smile Appearance
One or more missing teeth, particularly in the front of your mouth, impact your smile’s appearance. You may cover your smile when you talk or laugh so others don’t see the gaps in your smile.
Single dental implants can support crowns, or multiple implants can support dental bridges and dentures. With implant-secured restorations, you don’t have to worry about tooth gaps. Your new teeth will fill missing tooth gaps with solid, tooth-colored materials.
Reduce The Risk of Gum Disease
Tooth loss is proven to increase your risk of gum disease. Harmful bacteria can collect in a missing tooth socket and irritate and infect the gum tissue. If you have lost a tooth to an infection, the infection can spread to other remaining teeth.
The way to tackle gum disease is to replace your teeth with dental implants and care for oral health for a lifetime. Also, the sooner you treat your tooth loss, the better your chance of successful implantation. We will ensure that you are healthy and receive treatment before you get dental implants to be in as good oral health as possible.
Provide Durability
Other tooth replacement options are not as durable as a dental implant-supported restoration. Since the implants will fuse with the surrounding bone, the restoration will withstand more wear and tear and pressure. Removable dentures will not last as long as implant-secured dentures. Even traditional dental bridges that use adjacent teeth for support will not last as long as implant bridges.
The implant anchors or posts are crafted from titanium metal. This medical-grade metal ensures that dental implants last. Restorations supported by implants will last longer because of their high-quality, durable materials.
Improve Chewing Ability
Since implants are the most durable tooth replacement solution, they will allow for a greater chewing force. This means you can add harder-to-chew foods back into your diet.
Complete and partial dentures have many eating restrictions since they are less durable. Dental implants will allow you to enjoy a broader variety of foods, including many healthy foods. Many patients who receive dental implant-supported restorations benefit from improved nutrition. Patients who wear removable dentures can encounter nutritional deficiencies because of their change in diet.
Look Like Natural Teeth
Implants can support a dental crown, bridges, or dentures. These restorations use tooth-colored materials like porcelain that reflect light like natural teeth. Materials used for implant restorations are also shaped to match the natural contour of teeth.
During dental implant treatment, we take dental impressions to ensure that your restorations match the look of natural teeth. Dental laboratories use high-quality materials color-matched to your smile. If you have all of your teeth missing, you can get a brighter yet natural smile with complete dentures.
