When Should You Consider Getting Dental Implants?

When Should You Consider Getting Dental Implants?Having a smile that you are not ashamed of involves having near-perfect teeth free of any noticeable defects. Unfortunately, nearly 70% of all adults in the 35 to 44 year old age bracket are missing at least one of their teeth. Without a doubt, being able to show off a brilliant smile is good one’s self-confidence and self-esteem. But when you have broken, chipped, crooked, or missing teeth, Shine Dental Group can correct these problems by providing you with dental implants.

As was mentioned above, dental implants help to correct specific problems. So if you are tired of having to hide your smile, undergoing a dental implants procedure is an option worth considering. By scheduling an appointment and sitting down with one of our dentists, we can help you determine whether or not dental implants are the right option to pursue. There are several reasons why we recommend having this done:

  • Compared to dentures, there are a number of advantages that dental implants offer – there is no clicking or slippage involved with implants and no gum irritation to be concerned with. In addition to this, dental implants eliminate the need for cream or gel adhesives because they are anchored securely into the jaw bone.
  • Having complete, perfect looking teeth – it may seem vain to want a perfect smile that others are envious of, but the bottom line is that having impeccable teeth is not just aesthetically appealing, it is beneficial psychologically. In so many words, having perfect looking teeth improves your quality of life.
  • Proper oral hygiene is easier – just like your natural teeth, dental implants can be brushed and flossed on a regular basis. You don’t have to remove them and soak them in a cleaning solution overnight. Most importantly, dental implants are a long-term solution whereas bridges and dentures have to be relined or replaced over time.
  • You can eat whatever foods you want – unlike dentures, you don’t have to be careful about eating certain foods such as apples or corn on the cob. If dentures are not secure, they can easily slip during the biting and chewing process. Consequently, denture wearers may be discouraged about eating these foods.

The dentists at Shine Dental Group can help you determine if you are a candidate for dental implants. So if you are tired of hiding your smile, contact us today and schedule an evaluation appointment so that we can help you start restoring it immediately.
