An incomplete smile can cause a number of issues, not the least of which is embarrassment at having missing teeth. However, in many ways, the functional problems that tooth loss can create, can be even more damaging.
When teeth are missing, remaining teeth tend to shift to try to fill the gap that has been created. This can lead to potentially severe alignment issues, that can cause discomfort while chewing, and contribute to jaw-related pain. It can even create subconscious teeth grinding, which can be damaging to remaining teeth.
A dental implant can help to prevent this, however, by filling the gap that was created.
Another benefit of a dental implant, though, is that it relies on a mimic tooth root to help hold the chosen replacement tooth securely in place. In doing so, it closely emulates the way a healthy tooth looks, feels and functions.
Since the mimic root is designed to last a lifetime, a dental implant represents one of the most long-lasting solutions for restoring one’s smile.
