One of the most important results of dental implants is that they minimize the melting away of the jawbone that occurs when teeth are lost. When a tooth is lost, the underlying bone undergoes a gradual reduction, causing problems with denture discomfort, mobility, and affecting the appearance of the overlying facial soft tissue, giving the appearance of aging.Dental implants provide a foundation of support, and benefits include:
- Increased chewing function and taste
- Increased stability
- Reduction of bone loss
- Restoration of natural tooth appearance
- Elimination of partials and/or dentures
- Preservation of remaining natural teeth and bone
- Increased comfort
- Increased self-esteem
