A beautiful smile has always been considered as a major confidence booster. Almost every individual wishes to have ‘the’ perfect smile. If only it would cost a little less, we would all get it! Other than the obvious cosmetic benefits, dental implants actually improve your overall oral health. There are multiple benefits of getting dental implants, and Kootenai Dental Group has some of the best-trained dentists to help you get the smile of your dreams. Here are just some of the benefits that come with dental implants.
Improved appearance
It is no surprise that fixing even the tiniest anomaly in your smile can greatly boost your self-confidence. Other than that, implants look just like your actual teeth with the added benefit of becoming permanent over time.
Speech improvements
If you have any poor-fitting dentures then you will often find yourself slurring or mumbling certain words. When your teeth slip from your mouth, they cause mispronunciation of certain words. With dental implants, you do not need to worry about slurred or mumbled speech.
Comfort is king
One of the biggest benefits of dental implants is that they become a part of you over time. You will not have to deal with removing fake dentures.
Eating becomes easier
Another benefit of dental implants is that they have the ability to function like your own teeth. This means that you do not have to worry about your dentures slipping while you eat. You will be able to eat both comfortably and with confidence.
Improvements in oral health
Having a dental implant will allow easier access between teeth; this causes improvements in overall oral health. There are no alterations made in the nearby teeth, which is why most of your own teeth will be left intact. As a result, your long-term oral health will be improved.
Highly durable
If you take good care of your implants, they might even last you a lifetime! If not a lifetime in some cases, dental implants will definitely last for several years.
Highly convenient
With dental implants, you do not have to worry about any messy adhesives to keep them in place. You will also save yourself from the embarrassment of removing them again and again. Dental implants will stay in place and cause you zero inconvenience.
The success rate is 98%
Most of us will be concerned about the remaining 2 percent. The success rate basically depends on a number of factors. These factors include the location of the implant in the jaw and more. Overall 98% of dental implants are a success so it is really not a risk.
