How Dental Implants Can Give You Confidence

If you’re looking to fill gaps in your smile, you may be well aware of the ways in which dental implants surpass the other most common tooth replacement options. Not only are they incredibly strong, but they last for decades longer than the competition.

All that sounds good, but how will dental implants make you feel on a day-to-day basis? More importantly, how will they make you feel about yourself? If you’re curious, here’s how dental implants can give you some crucial confidence.

They Look Incredibly Realistic

Anytime people get dental work, they’re often a little insecure about how it’ll make them look. In particular, people tend to hope that their dental work doesn’t appear “fake” to people.

Thankfully, dental implants won’t have that kind of issue. The dental implant crown is made of high-quality porcelain, meaning that it’ll be indistinguishable from the rest of your teeth. If someone didn’t know that you were already missing a tooth, they’d probably have no idea!

They Can Give You Bite Power

If you’ve been missing teeth for a while, your relationship with food may be a little different now than it used to be. Enjoying a meal with your family may be a little bit more anxiety-inducing than it was when you had all your teeth.

Dental implants are secured directly to the jaw, which means that you can get back a lot of the bite force you may have lost out on. This means you can eat with friends or go on a dinner date with confidence!

They Aren’t Going to Quit on You

When compared to other tooth replacement options, your dental implants are incredibly durable. While dentures and bridges can last you for up to 10 years, over 95% of dental implants succeed at 20 years with proper maintenance.

If you take care of your dental implants, the odds are that they’ll take care of you just as well. That should give you the confidence to go through life without worrying about your dental work!
