Dental implants are one of the most popular tooth replacement options today and with good reason. If you are in need of tooth replacement, learning more about dental implants should be your next step!

Benefits of Dental Implants

• Aesthetics: Dental implants are topped with a full crown that is matched to the color of your natural teeth. This means that you'll be able to get a dental implant that looks just like your other teeth, and you'll never notice the difference. 
• Durability: Dental implants are extremely durable, which allows the patient to use the implant just like a natural tooth. Your implant will be bonded to your jawbone, and then topped with a durable crown as well. You won't have to worry about your implant breaking or falling out. 
• Long lasting: A lot of other tooth replacement options don't last as long as dental implants. Since an implant is permanent, it essentially lasts forever. You won't have to replace it after a few years, and since it's such a strong option, you also won't see your implant break. 
• Comfortable: Because implants are placed directly into your jawbone, and actually naturally bond with the bone, the end result is something very comfortable, that feels like a natural tooth. You also don't have to remove it for cleaning, you can simply care for your dental implant the same way you care for your natural teeth.

No matter why you're looking at getting a dental implant, it's a great option for tooth replacement. The process begins with a consultation with your dentist. Then, if an extraction is needed, your dentist will remove the tooth in question. The implant itself is a titanium post, which will be surgically implanted into your bone. Most patients take about 6 weeks to heal the implant and to ensure that it has fully bonded with the jawbone. Then, your crown can be placed, and you can start using your tooth as normal!
