Top 6 Reasons to Choose Implants to Replace Multiple Missing Teeth
As debilitating as multiple tooth loss can be, the right restorative treatment can have you smiling with joy and confidence again. For many people, that treatment is dental implants. Implant restorations are as durable and natural-looking as real teeth, enabling you to smile, eat, and speak with ease. You can obtain professional dental implant treatment at Libertyville Dental Associates, located in Libertyville, Illinois.
If you’re looking for an enduring solution to replacing multiple missing teeth, here are six reasons to consider dental implants:
1. Natural Appeal
Of all the restorations you can choose to replace lost teeth, implants have the most natural appeal. That’s because implants replace your tooth and its roots to restore your smile’s natural structure. Small titanium posts are placed inside your jawbone surgically to function like tooth roots. These posts are topped with custom-fitted porcelain crowns, bridges, or dentures to replace lost teeth. The result is an attractive, healthy-looking smile with a natural appeal.
2. Enhanced Ability to Bite & Chew
Tooth loss can cause discomfort when you eat due to leaving large gaps in your mouth. Filling those gaps with implants restores your ability to bite and chew. Your new teeth are secured in place by artificial tooth roots, keeping them from wobbling or coming loose. You’ll be able to enjoy your meals and eat a varied diet that includes most, if not all, of your favorite food.
3. Protection of Jawbone Health
Tooth roots not only support your teeth, but they also stimulate your jawbone to keep your jaw healthy and strong. When teeth go missing, bone loss often follows, resulting in a weakened jaw. Once implants fuse with your bone system, they function like tooth roots in protecting your jawbone health and preserving the integrity of your jaw.

4. Durability & Longevity
The durability and longevity of implants make them a worthwhile investment over the long haul. With good oral care, titanium implants can last indefinitely. Quality restorations usually last 15 – 20 years. When you’re ready for an upgrade, we can attach new teeth to the same implants, giving you a beautiful smile for life.
5. Easy Maintenance & Care
Good brushing and flossing habits, a healthy diet, and routine dental checkups and cleanings are all implants need to stay strong and healthy! A good oral care routine will keep you smiling joyfully for years to come.
6. Prevention of Additional Dental Issues
In addition to leaving gaping holes in your smile, tooth loss can trigger additional dental issues like dental drift, bad bites, uneven wear on your teeth, decay, and gum disease. Implants offer a solution to these and other oral health risks. Implants support remaining teeth to keep them from shifting. This keeps your smile in alignment, preserves your bite, and prevents undue tooth wear and tear. By making your smile complete, implants facilitate oral hygiene to minimize problems with decay and gum disease.
