All of us look for the best available option when it comes to replacing missing teeth. But many individuals are not sure which solution is the best choice for them. There are several choices available to patients, but one of the best options is the dental implant. Replacing your teeth is a choice that will ultimately impact your general health and the health of your remaining teeth. If you are looking for a dental implant dentist in the Beverly Hills, CA area, schedule an appointment with Drs. Frank Vidjak and Fanny Yacaman. As an Endodontist, Dr. Fanny Yacaman is the perfect person to talk to if you have problems with a root canal treated tooth that may need to be replaced with a dental implant. Drs. Vidjak and Yacaman, together with their team at Beverly Hills Advanced Specialties of Dentistry, have provided durable and safe dental implants to patients who need them.
Why is a dental implant considered one of the best options for replacing teeth? It is simple. Dental implants mimic the shape, function, and appearance of regular teeth. It is not all about aesthetics, though, as dental implants can replicate the strength and functionality of a natural tooth. Your mouth will look, feel, and function as naturally as it would when full of natural teeth. Receiving dental implants does require a surgical procedure and healing time, so it is only natural for patients to ask about the safety of dental implants. Let us look at why dental implants are considered (and have proven to be) safe.
Once implanted into the jawbone, a dental implant will then begin to fuse with the living bone over time. This fusing of jawbone and implant provides an anchor for your artificial tooth that is both incredibly strong and durable. Another benefit of the implant fusing to the jawbone is that the implant cannot slip or move out of place. You will be able to eat correctly and smile openly. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement solution that stimulates the living bone underneath the missing tooth, preventing many issues from occurring later.
Dental implants are straightforward to care for and maintain. You need to care for them as you would any of your natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and rinsing combined with dental visits and cleanings will allow you to retain your implant without issue. Also, since they are permanently implanted into your jaw, you never need to worry about taking them out for any reason like you would with a denture. Dental implants are pain-free and worry-free!
If you are looking for a long-lasting tooth replacement option, you cannot find a better choice than a dental implant. Dental implants, usually made from titanium (ask your dentist for specifics on your dental implant), are implanted into the jawbone, where they fuse together. Because the implant integrates with the jawbone, it can last a lifetime. Due to the non-toxic nature of a dental implant, it will not be rejected by your body either.
When you have a gap in your smile caused by missing teeth, that area can be a breeding ground for gum disease-causing bacteria. These gaps can trap food particles, allowing the bacterial accumulation that can ultimately lead to periodontitis. Dental implants will fill any gap in your smile, preventing this accumulation of food and bacteria, leading to healthier gums.
Dental implants offer so many attractive benefits to patients who choose them to replace missing teeth. If you are interested in dental implants, Drs. Frank Vidjak and Fanny Yacaman would love to sit down and discuss options with you after examining your teeth and gums.
