Not only that, but 500,000 additional implants are placed annually! Clearly, they\u2019re a pretty popular choice for anyone who has lost teeth. If you\u2019ve been considering dental implants in Mt Holly, you might be wondering how they\u2019ll work with the existing oral structures in your mouth and what makes them such a great choice for replacing teeth. Learn the answers to those questions and more in this blog!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>How Do Implants Work With Your Existing Oral Anatomy?<\/h2>\n<p>Dental implants are titanium posts that are placed in the jaw to replace the roots of missing teeth. After they\u2019ve fully healed, the restoration is completed with a crown, bridge or denture that attaches to the implant. This key feature is what separates them from other replacement options such as dentures and bridges, which only replace the crowns of missing teeth.<\/p>\n<p>Replacing the roots of your teeth is important for multiple reasons. First, it gives your teeth stability, support and chewing strength. Second, it maintains the bone mass in your jaws that makes up your facial shape and structure.<\/p>\n<p>Dentures and bridges only lie on top of your gums, so the missing root signals to your body to \u201creabsorb\u201d the jawbone that was once there. Implants trick your body into thinking that you never lost a tooth, so your jaws won\u2019t shrink and become thinner over time.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Are Implants So Good For Your Oral Health?<\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s a reason that implants are so popular! Here are just some of the reasons that they\u2019re good for your oral health:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>High success rate<\/strong> \u2013 In non-smokers, the success rate for implants is 98%. They have a proven track record of being a safe, reliable replacement option.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Longevity <\/strong>\u2013 With basic care and maintenance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mthollyfamilydentistry.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> can last decades. That makes them more cost-effective in the long run than dentures, which have to be replaced about every 5-10 years.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chewing power <\/strong>\u2013 Implants allow you to chew hard, tough foods like steak or crusty bread, which greatly adds to your health and quality of life on a day-to-day basis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Confidence <\/strong>\u2013 The power of feeling good about your smile shouldn\u2019t be underestimated. Implants restore more than just your smile \u2013 they restore your confidence as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Simply put, implants are the next best thing to your own natural teeth. They feel so great that many people forget that they ever lost teeth in the first place!<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mthollyfamilydentistry.com\/adam-cygler-dds.html\">Dr. Adam Cygler<\/a> is a general, restorative and cosmetic dentist in Mt Holly who provides outstanding dental care to his community.
