Losing one or two teeth, especially in areas where people can’t see, may not have much impact on how you live. Losing most or all of your teeth, however, will dramatically affect your lifestyle! How you replace your teeth can make a big difference in restoring your quality of life. At Seasons Dental in Burley, Idaho, Dr. Chad Bodily recommends implant dentures to restore your smile’s health, function, and beauty.
Here are seven good reasons to choose implant dentures to reconstruct your smile:
Implant dentures are secured in place by small, titanium posts, aka implants, that function like tooth roots. The implants keep your new teeth from coming loose when you bite and chew. You’ll have full chewing power to enjoy a varied diet of all your favorite foods. With implant dentures, chewing is distributed evenly among all your teeth to improve digestion and allow you to receive full nutritional value from your meals.
Comfort is another reason to choose implant dentures. Your new teeth will fit snugly and comfortably in your mouth and stay in place permanently. You’ll never experience the embarrassment of teeth slipping or shifting when you talk or eat, or the discomfort of loose teeth chafing your gum tissues. Implant dentures are as secure and stable as natural teeth and will help you rebuild a permanent smile.
Implant restorations replicate the structure, color, shape, and translucency of natural teeth to give your smile an authentic appearance. The implants are a solid foundation for your dentures, giving your smile strong structural support for life. Dr. Bodily can restore your smile’s original function and beauty through implant treatment.
Once implants fuse with your jawbone, they function like tooth roots to stimulate bone growth and regeneration. This keeps your jawbone from deteriorating after losing natural teeth. Implant dentures contribute to a strong, healthy jaw, facial support, and a youthful appearance.
When cared for properly, titanium implants can last indefinitely, and implant dentures can last 15 to 20 years. Implants are designed for longevity, giving you a long-term solution to replacing lost teeth.
Unlike traditional full dentures or removable partial dentures, which are removed for cleaning and soaking nightly, implant dentures stay in your mouth permanently. They are brushed and flossed just like real teeth for easy care. You’ll see Dr. Bodily every six months for checkups and dental cleanings to ensure your new teeth and implants stay strong and healthy long-term.
With implant dentures, you’ll have a functional, pleasing smile to boost your confidence and self-esteem. You’ll be able to smile, talk, laugh, eat easily, and enjoy all the pleasures that strong, healthy teeth can bring.Â
