Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants have revolutionized the way we restore smiles, offering a durable, natural-looking, and functional solution for missing teeth. At our Mt. Kisco practice, we take pride in making dental implants a pivotal part of our cosmetic dentistry services, helping our patients regain their confidence and oral health.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
One of the biggest benefits of dental implants is their ability to mimic natural teeth. They’re securely rooted in the jawbone, providing a strong foundation that feels and functions like a real tooth. This stability makes everyday activities, such as eating and speaking, effortless. Additionally, implants preserve the structure of your jaw, preventing the bone loss that occurs when teeth are missing.
Unlike dentures, implants don’t shift or require adhesives, and they’re designed to last for decades with proper care. They also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing your smile while boosting your confidence.
Types of Dental Implants
We offer a variety of dental implant options to suit individual needs. These include:
- Single Tooth Implants: A great choice for replacing one missing tooth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: Ideal for replacing multiple missing teeth without affecting surrounding teeth.
- Full Arch Implants: For patients needing a complete restoration, this provides a fixed and stable alternative to traditional dentures.
Our team will help determine which option fits your dental and cosmetic goals.
How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
With proper oral hygiene and routine checkups, dental implants can last 20 years or more. Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants integrate with your bone, offering unmatched durability. We help our patients maintain their implants for the long term by providing comprehensive post-procedure care and guidance.
Are You a Good Candidate?
The best candidates for dental implants are those with healthy gums, sufficient bone density, and good overall oral health. If bone loss has occurred, we can discuss options like bone grafting to prepare your jaw for successful implantation. We perform thorough evaluations to ensure implants are the right choice for you.
Preparing for Your Implant Procedure
Before the procedure, it’s important to maintain good oral hygiene and address any potential dental issues, like gum disease or cavities. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan to guide you through every step. The process may take several months, but the life-changing results are well worth the investment in time and care.
