With a 95% success rate at initial placement, they remain superior to dental bridges and traditional dentures. But what makes them so popular? What contributes to their long-lasting success? Here are 3 reasons these artificial teeth stay ahead of the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Implants Prevent Bone Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Untreated tooth loss can lead to bone resorption, which is the weakening and shrinking of the jawbone due to a lack of stimulation. When a tooth root is no longer able to deliver the stimuli needed to keep this area of the mouth dense, it deteriorates over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, dental implants prevent this from occurring because they integrate with the bone. During osseointegration, the titanium or zirconia post fuses with the underlying jawbone, creating a strong foundation for the custom restoration. It also stimulates the bone so that it remains dense enough to provide greater support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Implants Require Advanced Treatment Planning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether your dentist places dental implants or only restores them, a customized treatment plan must be carefully crafted beforehand. This means advanced imaging and analysis are required to position implants correctly for maximum support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike dental bridges and dentures that only sit on top of the gums, dental implants must sit within the jawbone, which requires oral surgery. When an implant dentist has the advanced training to know how deep the post needs to be to achieve the desired results, you can trust these prosthetics will last for decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Implants Are Easy to Maintain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants can last 30+ years or a lifetime with proper care. Since they are not removable, you can keep them clean using the same materials and products you already use at home. A soft-bristle toothbrush, dental floss, and ADA-approved mouthwash are essential. The only difference is to avoid abrasive toothpaste brands, as they can scratch the material and cause it to appear dull over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With morning and nightly cleanings, you can minimize your risk of peri-implantitis, one of the most common problems that can result in dental implant failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of removing your artificial teeth to clean them separately from the rest of your mouth, you can save valuable time when taking care of your dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t underestimate these prosthetics when thinking about replacing your missing teeth. Offering greater benefits and advantages than dental bridges and dentures, you now know what makes these artificial teeth so successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><br>Dr. Brooke Buller is a dentist in Gahanna who completed her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at The Ohio State University.
