Traditional dentures can cause discomfort and inconvenience because it involves sticky adhesives, clicking, slipping, and sometimes even your food tastes a little funny with the dentures in your mouth. This is not to mention the fact that if you continue to wear dentures, your jaw starts shrinking and your face gets a collapsed look, as the distance between your nose and chin get smaller. Your facial structure can change so much that your dentures don’t fit, and it’s difficult to fit you with new dentures. Your Idaho Falls dentist offers dental implants so you can say goodbye to these problems.
How dental implants are better than dentures
Dental implants are used with titanium metal, fused to your jawbone, just like a real tooth. The process is a root-form implant, since the implant is placed within the bone. The bone of the jaw accepts the titanium implant and fuses together. Teeth implants looks like a real tooth, acts like a real tooth, and feels like a real tooth in your mouth. It’s a wonderful solution your Idaho Falls cosmetic dentist has to offer to replace missing teeth or dentures and give you a natural-looking smile.
What dental implants can do for you:
- Replace one or more teeth, and give you the same feeling and function as real teeth
- Teeth replacements do not affect the bordering healthy teeth
- Support bridges by anchoring them to the jaw
