What your dentists in Ashtabula want you to know about dental implants
If you’ve been living with gaps in your smile from missing teeth, you know how embarrassing it can be. Every time you smile, you think 
people are looking at your incomplete smile rather than your friendly face. It’s time to restore your smile with dental implants! Your dentists at The Healthy Smile Center in Ashtabula, OH, want to share with you the benefits of dental implants and how they can preserve your whole smile.
When you need to have a tooth extracted, or you have areas where you are missing teeth, you have a choice: you could either live with an incomplete smile or get conventional bridgework or removable partials or dentures to fill the space.
Now there is another option, dental implants! Dental implants are the state-of-the-art, high-tech method to preserve your whole smile. There are many reasons people choose dental implants over conventional methods of tooth replacement, like bridgework or dental appliances. Consider that dental implants are:
- Naturally beautiful, because they look just like your natural teeth
- Healthy, because you clean them just like your natural teeth
- Permanent, because they are securely embedded in your bone
- Successful, with a success rate of over 95 percent!
- Convenient, because you can eat the foods you love without fear of breakage
Dental implants are also a conservative treatment because, unlike bridgework, your dentists in Ashtabula, OH, won’t need to work on the adjacent teeth. During a simple in-office procedure, the implants are placed in your jaw. A healing period takes place, during which your bone will begin to fuse with the dental implant, locking it in place. After the implant is secure, it will function as the “root” of your missing tooth. Your dental implant is then capped with a beautiful new crown.
Dental implants preserve your whole smile, and also preserve the bone in your jaw. Don’t settle for old-school methods of tooth replacement when you can have a state-of-the-art addition to your smile.
