The Reasons To Get Implants

Whatever your reasons for getting dental implants in Eldersburg, MD you can be confident in contacting Dr. Jocelyn Ocampo, Dr. Jun Park, and  Dr. Alexander Cho of Eldersburg Dental Group. 

Dental implants permanently correct the issue of missing teeth. They look natural and allow you to smile with confidence, so no one will know you don't have all your original teeth. Many legitimate reasons exist to make choosing dental implants the right choice. 

Prevent bone loss

An implant is a titanium screw that your dentist places in your jaw bone. The screw takes the place of the roots of your teeth. A crown is placed on the implant and it functions like a natural tooth, giving the jaw bone the support it needs to remain healthy. Suffering bone loss can make your face sag, making you look older. Nobody wants that. 

Preserve adjacent teeth

When a tooth is removed from your mouth, the other teeth can begin to shift and this can lead to pain as well as loose teeth. If you choose a bridge to fill the space, the adjacent teeth must be filed down and covered with a crown. 

Implants are a permanent solution

Implants can last for decades, they are the most permanent solution to the issue of missing teeth. Whether it is one tooth or a full set of dentures, they are the closest you can come to your own teeth. 

Easy to care for

Take care of your dental implants in the same way as your natural teeth. Twice daily brushing, flossing, and twice-yearly visits to your dentist. You can keep solid dental implants in Eldersburg, MD with just a little bit of care. 

Durable

You can treat your dental implants the same way that you would treat your natural teeth. They will last pretty much a lifetime if you maintain good oral health. Don't chew ice and keep your gums healthy. 

Preserve your ability to chew normally

Being able to eat the foods you love is one of life's pleasures. When you are missing teeth, eating things like corn on the cob and steak can be a challenge. Who needs a challenge when it comes to dining? 

You can implant one tooth or a full set

Implants work well for a single tooth, a couple of teeth, or even a full set of dentures. You can have your smile and confidence back with the help of dental implants.
