When you have a missing tooth, it can make a huge difference in your life. First, your smile is usually affected. Having a gap in your smile affects your self-confidence. But also, you experience decreased functionality. It may be harder to chew food effectively, and you may even experience speech changes. If you’re living with tooth loss, it’s time to call Dr. Adnan Saleem at Hebron Smiles and Smilebliss Orthodontics to learn more about how dental implants can be life-changing.Â
The most wonderful thing about dental implants is that they function just like your natural teeth. The titanium post embeds directly into your jawbone, supporting the implant. Then, a porcelain crown resembling your natural teeth shows above the gumline.
Dental implants are made from materials that do not decay, ensuring they can last a lifetime with proper care. Also, implants are very stable because the titanium fuses with the jawbone to create a sturdy foundation. Chewing, speaking, and smiling will feel natural to you.
One of the primary benefits of dental implants is that they’re much more comfortable than dentures. The anchors remain permanently in your mouth so you won’t experience the irritation common with dentures.
A dental implant replaces one natural tooth. You can receive multiple dental implants if more than one tooth is missing. But there are also hybrid options.

When you have a missing tooth, you will also risk bone loss in your jaw. The jawbone requires stimulation to maintain density, which helps preserve facial structure. Dental implants are beneficial for the jaw.
Most of us have seen the viral video of a grandmother blowing out her birthday candles and her dentures falling out. She laughs more than anyone else because she has a good sense of humor. But the reality is that most people would find no humor in being in this situation. With dental implants, you never have to worry about your teeth falling out while living your life. And when you’re chewing your food, you can enjoy your meal without your dentures slipping and sliding around.
