When you are dealing with decaying teeth, lost teeth, or other oral damage, it can affect your confidence. Bad teeth can limit how often you want to smile, lower your confidence when getting a job or dating, and damage your daily routines (eating, going out with friends, taking photos with children, etc.). Implants will make your teeth look straighter and will eliminate any discolored teeth. Here are some other benefits you can get from having dental implants installed.
1- Restoring A Natural Look
When you lose teeth or experience chipped or broken teeth or discoloration, your smile may look unnatural. Dental implants will look like real teeth and be the ivory color we are used to seeing, which can help you have a more natural look when you smile or talk. Even if you are only needing one implant, it will be custom-made to match the shape and color of your existing teeth. A natural smile will help restore your confidence while still allowing you to eat and talk normally.
2- Improving Speech
Your teeth and tongue are crucial components of forming words and sounds. Missing teeth could cause you to have a lisp or slurred speech. Even ill-fitting dentures can impact your speech. Dental implants won’t move around in your mouth which will provide you with more security when talking.
Enjoying talking with your family and friends, eating your favorite meal, giving a speech, or sharing opinions in a work meeting is easier with dental implants. Instead of focusing on your voice or lisp, you can focus on other tasks.
3- Prevent Facial Sagging
If your jawbone is compromised by missing teeth, you will probably notice that your face shape changes. The jawbone does more than hold your teeth, it helps keep your skin and facial muscles in their correct positions. Facial sagging is common among those with dentures or damaged teeth, which is why implants can help boost your confidence. Implants are put directly into the jawbone, which will trick it into thinking there are still teeth in that space. As a bone deteriorates, it can shrink and cause the skin around it to sag. By preserving your facial structure, you will look more like yourself and prevent premature aging.
4- Enhanced Chewing Efficiency
One of the things that people miss when they lose teeth is giving up their favorite foods. Crunchy items or meat are one of the hardest things to chew, which means that those with dentures or missing teeth may struggle to enjoy eating these. Having implants will give all people a better ability to eat all food types. Chewing your favorite foods can make birthdays, holidays, and family gatherings less stressful. Enjoy the taste of food, limit pain, and improve your confidence with dental implants.
5- Comfort And Convenience
Removing dentures is inconvenient and often embarrassing for many people. Dental implants, once they are fully healed, will be comfortable just like your natural teeth. Dental implants also don’t require special cleaning like dentures or removable bridges. You will brush and floss around your implants just like your normal teeth. The convenience of implants will help boost the confidence of patients since they won’t even have to think about their fake teeth.
