When it comes to replacing missing teeth, many patients compare dentures with dental implants. While dentures may seem affordable, implants offer unmatched comfort, function, and long-term value.
Dental implants are securely anchored into the jawbone, making them incredibly stable. Unlike dentures, they do not slip, cause discomfort, or require adhesives. This stability allows you to enjoy your everyday activities—eating, speaking, and smiling—without worry.
Key Benefits of Dental Implants
Permanent tooth replacement
No dietary restrictions
Natural appearance and feel
Stops bone loss and maintains facial shape
Improves long-term oral health
Dentures, on the other hand, sit on the gums and may cause pressure sores, instability, and difficulty chewing harder foods. They also do not prevent bone shrinkage.
Are Implants Safe?
Yes! Modern dental implants are made from biocompatible materials and have a success rate of over 95%.
