As we age, it is natural to lose teeth to decay, accidents, or other circumstances. Missing teeth can make a person look older, appear to be unhealthy, or affect their confidence drop when they smile. One great restorative dentistry procedure to address this issue is dental implants. The benefits of dental implants include improving your health as well as your appearance. As your dental implants specialist in Turlock, here are a few of the ways we have been impressed by dental implants.

Dental Implants Improve Your Health

Dental implants are permanent fixtures in your mouth, being anchored to your bone structure, meaning that they can totally change the way you eat. In the past you may have been forced to eat a diet mostly comprised of soft foods to accommodate for your missing tooth or teeth. Now you can enjoy a healthy diet of varied foods, which can improve your health. Additionally, chewing is, believe it or not, a form of exercise, and the muscles in your jaw need that movement regularly to stay healthy.

Dental Implants Can Reverse Future Tooth Loss

When bone material is lost from the body, it can have an impact on the surrounding bone as well, creating a situation in which more tooth loss is inevitable. By placing an implant in the space where your tooth used to be, you can actually reverse the impact that the loss had on the nearby teeth and save them from decay and loss in the future.

Dental Implants Shave Years Off Your Appearance

The skin of our faces is designed to stretch over our teeth, and that structure is part of what makes us look young with smooth, wrinkle-free skin. Losing teeth can cause the skin of the face to sag, adding years to your appearance. One of the major benefits of dental implants is that it makes you look younger.
