Benefits of Replacing a Full Arch of Teeth with Dental Implants

We are familiar with your story. You are missing all your teeth and have been wearing dentures for some time now. Your dentures haven’t been awful, but they’ve certainly not been wonderful. They shift when you eat and laugh. You worry about them slipping out of your mouth. You’ve had times when they’ve rubbed your gums, so you’ve taken them out and set them aside only to forget where you’ve left them.

The truth is you don’t love your dentures. And we’re here to tell you there’s a better way. Lucky for you, we’ve created a guide of common questions to help you understand the benefits of replacing a full arch of teeth with dental implants. Perhaps, you’ve been asking some of these same questions…

How long do dental implants last?

When it comes to durability, there’s no match for dental implants. We insert a titanium screw into your jawbone, and over time, it fuses with the bone, forming a solid attachment and securely locking the new artificial tooth in place. Our dental implants are truly designed to last for many years, restoring your quality of life for good.

How do implants impact my gums and jaw?

Simply put, dental implants provide the ultimate in jaw health. Dental implants are the only teeth replacement available today that replaces the roots in addition to the crown of a missing tooth. The screw-part of the implant tooth that we place in your jaw acts as a root that provides stimulation that keeps your jawbone healthy. Healthy bones mean healthy smiles.

How comfortable is a full arch of dental implants?

Truth be told, our patients say they forget they even have dental implants because their new set of teeth feels like natural teeth. They report that biting and chewing is as it were when they had their original teeth, and eating is as comfortable as ever. There’s no slippage, rubbing, or irritation. A full set of implant teeth means true comfort.

Will people be able to tell I have dental implants?

Dental implants look as natural as they feel. Indeed, the material we use to make implants looks just like natural teeth or even better, creating the smile you’ve always dreamed of. We ensure that each full arch of dental implants that we place comes with a hefty dose of confidence in yourself and your beautiful new smile. We guarantee that you won’t be able to quit grinning.

How expensive is a full arch of dental implants?

When you factor in the longevity of dental implants, the quality of life they provide, and the jawbone health they foster when placed in your jaw, the price can’t be beat. In fact, the cost of going without is perhaps more important to consider. Traditional tooth replacements last a fraction of the time implants do and require adjustments, get lost, and can irritate your gums. The bottom line: a full set of dental implants is well worth the investment.
