😁 Dental implants have revolutionised the way we restore smiles. But what exactly makes them so effective – and why are they often recommended over traditional options like bridges or dentures?
The Science Explained: Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as artificial tooth roots. Titanium is biocompatible, meaning it naturally fuses with bone through a process called osseointegration. Over a few months, the implant becomes securely anchored, creating a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture.
This fusion not only ensures durability but also prevents bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing and roots no longer stimulate the jawbone.
Why Choose Implants?
🦷 Natural Look & Feel – Implants function like natural teeth, both in appearance and performance.
🦷 Long-Term Solution – With proper care, implants can last decades.
🦷 Protects Healthy Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants don’t rely on neighbouring teeth for support.
🦷 Preserves Facial Structure – They help maintain your natural jawline by preventing bone deterioration.
