Gaps in your smile can make you feel self-conscious in social situations and unwilling to flash a smile. Fortunately, dental implants offer the perfect solution. These titanium screws are inserted into the jawbone and topped with a restoration for a permanent, life-like replacement tooth. If you\u2019re considering this treatment, keep reading to learn four facts about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drtubo.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fact #1: Dental Implants Are Stain-Resistant &amp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike your natural teeth, the restorations that top dental implants are often made from porcelain. This material is highly stain-resistant, which means that your smile will remain bright and beautiful for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fact #2: Dental Implants Are Cavity-Proof<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since dental implants aren\u2019t made from the same material as your teeth, they can\u2019t develop cavities in the same way. Even so, you still need to practice excellent oral hygiene to avoid cavities in your remaining teeth as well as gum disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fact #3: Dental Implants Are Highly Successful<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are a highly successful treatment. In fact, they have a success rate of 95% and complications are rare. They are incredibly sturdy and allow you to comfortably speak, laugh, eat, and smile. It\u2019s important to eat a healthy diet to ensure that your implants and your remaining teeth remain healthy and strong. This should consist of lean meats, fish, dairy, fresh fruits and vegetables, and nuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fact #4: Dental Implants Provide Health Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you lose teeth, the jawbone will start to erode due to lack of stimulation. Additionally, the teeth near where the gap is will start to shift to fill in the space. Since dental implants are inserted through the gums and directly into the jawbone, this provides it with the stimulation the jaw needs to remain strong and healthy. Implants will also prevent teeth shifting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fact #5: Dental Implants Can Be Relatively Inexpensive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of dental implants will vary depending on what materials are used, but they can be relatively inexpensive. Even if you don\u2019t have insurance, many dentists offer alternative payment options, such as in-office savings plans. Dental financing is also offered by many dental offices and allows you to break up treatment payments so you don\u2019t have to pay for it all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whitinsville Family Dentistry\u2019s care for their patients shows in the exceptional treatment they offer.
