There are three major concerns that any sort of prosthetic dentistry solution needs to address for you. One, does the dental prosthetic recreate the function of your missing tooth? If you can’t bite and chew food with the replacement tooth, it isn’t actually doing you a whole lot of good.
Two, does the dental prosthetic recreate the appearance of your original tooth? If you end up with a tooth replacement that stands out immediately when you smile, you may not feel confident showing off your pearly whites to the world.
Three, does the dental prosthetic last? You don’t want to have to address the same problem again and again.
Dental implants address all three of these concerns with a comprehensive solution. Dental implants are surgically placed in your jawbone, so they are stable and provide a full functional recovery. Due to their titanium build, they are also incredible durable. Finally, after you receive your dental implant base, your dentist can custom fabricate a dental crown that matches the appearance of your surrounding teeth and sits atop the implant.
