Question 1

Happy Ever After

Accepted Answer

A dental bridge may only last ten years or less, but dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium implant is affixed to the jawbone. It is biocompatible, which means it is non-toxic and does not cause the body to reject it.

Question 2

Prevent bone loss at all costs

Accepted Answer

When there are no tooth roots (or implants) to maintain the jaw bone stimulated, bone loss happens.

Because there is no tooth to stimulate the jaw bone in the empty position, it deteriorates. If a tooth is missing and no implant is implanted during the first year, the bone area loses 25% of its volume, and bone loss continues over time.

Question 3

Prevent Gum Disease

Accepted Answer

A missing tooth gap can trap food and bacteria, resulting in gum disease.

Question 4

Looking younger

Accepted Answer

Missing teeth - Bone loss - Saggy face.

The lower part of the face begins to collapse at this point, gradually narrowing the gap between the tip of the nose and the chin. Excess wrinkles around the mouth, thinner lips, and a more pointed chin can all make a person appear much older than their true age.

Question 5

Keep other teeth stable

Accepted Answer

A missing tooth can cause surrounding teeth to shift crookedly towards the gap, causing the gap to widen. This causes your teeth to shift out of alignment, affecting your bite, chewing abilities, and attractiveness. It has the potential to produce interference, making tooth replacement more difficult in the future.
