Dental implants: fill in the gaps for yourself!

If you have one or more missing teeth, then you could be feeling a bit fed up about it. Yet if you haven’t made the move to find out what to do, you may also be feeling a little in the dark about what can solve the problem. At High Dental Implants Melbourne, we offer dental implants Melbourne as a treatment to replace missing teeth. By coming in for an initial consultation to discuss treatment options, you can make the choice you need to resolve the issue and fill in the gaps.

Dental implants Melbourne: the low-down

Dental implants are screws that are attached to the jawbone by fusing with your body’s tissues, so that they are firmly fixed in place. The metal is titanium, which is a good metal for bonding with human tissues. The screws then have the replacement prosthetics of crowns, bridges or dentures attached to them and they offer a securely fitted option to replacement teeth.

The benefits of dental implants

Dental implants Melbourne have a number of benefits that could make them worth considering discussing as a treatment option with our implant dentist. Aside from the aesthetic improvement in your smile, dental implants also allow you to continue to eat and drink normally. You won’t need to worry about opting for a chewy steak or a crunchy apple; your replacement teeth shouldn’t go anywhere.

Dental implants are also easy to maintain. All you have to do to keep dental implants in tip-top condition is brush and floss regularly and keep up with your routine dental check-ups. If you are able to do this, your implants could even last you a lifetime – result! Another bonus of having implants is that if your face has developed a shrunken appearance from the missing teeth, you could find that it regains its structure once the implants are fitted and you could have a more youthful appearance.

A major benefit of dental implants is the fact that some people experience speech problems when they have missing teeth; they can also suffer from jaw pain. By replacing missing teeth with dental implants, you should experience improvement in these conditions. Finally, if you have any remaining natural teeth, leaving them exposed by having gaps next to them could lead to further dental problems. Leaving natural teeth and gums more exposed to bacteria could lead to cavities and gum disease, for example. By replacing the missing teeth, however, you should remove this increased risk.
