Dental Implants vs. Dentures

Dental Implants vs. Dentures

Many people say one of the first things they notice about someone is their smile. A nice set of teeth can make a great first impression, give you confidence and support a person in social or business situations. However, people with missing teeth often feel embarrassed about their appearance and try to hide their smiles. Thankfully, there are now treatments available to prevent you from living with the effects of missing teeth.

  • Dentures

    Dentures may make you think of your grandmother putting her teeth in a glass of water overnight. Although they’ve come a long way in terms of design and realism, several challenges still come with choosing them as a method to replace your missing teeth.

    Dentures need to be held in place using adhesive, which you must reapply every time you remove them. The adhesive usually comes in the form of wafers or paste, which aren’t always reliable. They could cause the dentures to slip, move around, and even fall out!

    Dentures also require quite a lot of maintenance, cleaning, and replacement once they wear out. As a temporary or budget option, dentures may be your best solution for your missing teeth.

  • Dental Implants

    If you can invest a little more in your smile, you may want to consider dental implants. They’re a permanent solution for missing teeth that look and function like your normal ones. Implants are made up of crowns anchored to the jaw using metal posts, making them strong and secure. The metal posts act in place of the root of a natural tooth, adding support to the jaw and preventing gum and jawbone deterioration.

    Dental implants can be color-matched to be identical to your natural teeth. You can also choose to have one or several implants, as they can be done on a tooth-by-tooth basis.

    Implants are easy to look after. All you must do is brush, floss, and care for them as you would your normal teeth. The better you maintain them, the longer they’ll last. Some people have had dental implants for upward of 15 years without a problem!
