Six benefits of dental implants

Six benefits of dental implants

• Easy aftercare. Once implants are put in place by the team at Sherway Dentistry, you can expect to have very little to no follow-up care with your dentist. Unlike other dental procedures, which often require multiple visits and adjustments, dental implants are a permanent solution that requires minimal maintenance.
• Natural look and feel. Our high-quality dental implants are made to resemble real teeth in both appearance and functionality. They are manufactured to blend in perfectly with your natural grin and existing teeth by matching the size, shape, and color of the teeth around them. With proper care and attention after placement, no one can even tell you have implants in place!
• Improved oral health. Unlike traditional bridges or dentures that might damage nearby healthy teeth or cause discomfort in the mouth, dental implants do not rely on the neighboring teeth for support. This means that your remaining teeth are untouched, and your overall oral health is not compromised. Our dental implants can even prevent further tooth loss by stimulating the jawbone and keeping it strong enough to solidify the remaining teeth.
• Long-lasting solution. With appropriate care and attention, as well as routine dental visits to Sherway Dentistry for cleanings and evaluations, dental implants have a high success rate and can last a lifetime. This makes them a much more permanent and cost-effective solution when compared to other options like bridges or dentures, which might need to be replaced every few years.
• Improved speech and eating abilities. Missing teeth often affect your ability to speak clearly and eat certain foods comfortably. Dental implants provide stability and functionality similar to natural teeth, allowing you to speak without hindrance or discomfort and enjoy your favorite foods without limitations.
• Preservation of natural teeth and bone structure. Other tooth replacement options, like bridges, require some preparation of adjacent healthy teeth for support. This can weaken those teeth over time and even lead to further tooth loss. On the other hand, dental implants do not rely on surrounding teeth for support and, therefore, do not cause any damage or compromise the integrity of neighboring teeth.
