Full-mouth implants, i.e., upper and lower dental implants, are ideal for addressing major tooth loss and restoring your smile. Quality dental implants from Sac Dentist in Sacramento, California, give you the strength, durability, and functionality of natural teeth along with a confident, pleasing smile. If you’re seeking a permanent tooth loss solution that meets your every dental need, you can’t go wrong with implants.
Here are seven ways upper and lower implants help achieve your smile goals:
Implant treatment is customized to your specific oral care needs. Whether you’re replacing a few teeth or many, implants can beautifully restore your smile. Implant restorations are custom-designed for your mouth, ensuring a comfortable and precise fit. They’re structurally sound as they’re supported by small titanium screws (implants), which function like tooth roots. Full mouth implants are like having your natural teeth again!
Tooth loss causes you to lose bone density as your jawbone starts to deteriorate over time. As your jawbone shrinks, your facial features begin to sink, resulting in an aging appearance. Implants prevent bone loss by stimulating your jaw. They help keep your jaw and facial features looking healthy, youthful, and strong.
The main job of teeth is chewing, and implants don’t disappoint in this area. If you’ve been existing on a soft food diet since losing teeth, you’ll appreciate the chewing power that implants bring to the table. Getting upper and lower dental implants will enable you to eat a balanced diet that includes the crunchy and chewy foods you love!
With a 95% success rate, implants offer an incredibly safe and reliable means of replacing lost teeth. The best implant candidates are those with good oral, general, and jawbone health, although the latter can be remedied with a bone graft, so you don’t miss out. Reliability makes implants a favored choice for rebuilding your smile.
Implants are made from corrosion-resistant titanium material designed to last for life. Implant restorations can last up to 20 years, with good oral care and routine visits to your Sacramento, CA dentist. When it’s time for a change, we’ll secure new restorations to the same implants to keep you smiling for years to come.
Implant teeth can’t get cavities, which is one less thing you have to worry about. Good oral hygiene and routine cleanings will keep your replacement teeth looking bright and healthy. It also keeps your gums bacteria-free, helping prevent gum disease.
Implants are also a preferred restorative treatment option due to their ease of maintenance and care. Like natural teeth, they only need brushing, flossing, and biannual dental cleanings to stay strong and healthy.
