Benefits of dental implants
Dental bridges or removable prosthesis substitute only the tooth's visible part – crown, whereas implants replace the tooth's root. Therefore, implantation is the only way to replace the entire tooth – root and crown.
Implants knit with bone and form a stable support for prosthesis, which become immobile and convenient. Implant supported prosthesis ensures natural and relaxed speech, effective and painless eating, maximum aesthetic results and increased self-confidence. In addition to that, implants stop the shrinkage of the jawbone and assure preservation of the natural shape of the face.
When a single or several teeth are lost and the neighbouring teeth are healthy, their preparation may be avoided if implants are used to cure the defect. Implants may also be used for additional fixation of removable prosthesis.
Initially, implantation may seem more expensive than other treatment methods, but in the long term, implants frequently turn out to be the most economical solution. Bridges and dentures usually require regular adjustments or substitutions, whereas implants are expected to be a lifetime replacement of teeth.
