Tooth Loss: It’s Not About Dentures Anymore | Cherry Hill Cosmetic Dentist
Studies show that over 50% of adults from 35-44 have tooth loss related to accidents or disease. In the past tooth loss meant that the patient would need to a bridge that attaches to their other teeth or dentures which sit on the gum-line. Dental implants are attached directly to the jawbone and anchored there so they will not move.
Patients have described dental implants as improving their quality of life. Unlike other less permanent choices the implants will not interfere with eating or diet choices. People can enjoy everyday life without worrying about their teeth slipping out of place or clicking.
