How Dental Implants Can Help You Lead a Healthier Life

Your dental health is something you should always prioritize. It’s essentially the catalyst that boosts positive outcomes for everything from nutrition to mental health. Missing teeth can create numerous problems, but dental implants offer a transformative solution.

At FastNewSmile®, we specialize in creating and placing dental implants, including same-day dental implants, for an instant smile makeover. While we love creating the look of a beautiful smile, we also know how important a new smile is for your total health.

Let’s explore how dental implants from our trailblazing prosthodontists can help you lead a healthier life while turning heads with a gorgeous, glowing smile.

 

Preventing Gum Disease and Bone Loss

Missing teeth aren’t just an eyesore; they pose serious health risks. When a tooth is lost, the gap left behind is essentially exposed and can quickly lead to gum disease and bone loss in the jaw.

Your tooth root is the core that keeps your jawbone strong. Without the root in place, your jawbone begins to deteriorate, which can alter facial structure and lead to further dental issues. The scary fact is that once you lose a tooth, there really isn’t any time before the irreversible happens. Jawbone deterioration can begin within 1-2 months of tooth loss.

Dental implants act like your actual teeth; providing the necessary stimulation to maintain jawbone density. According to the National Library of Medicine, dental implants have a success rate of up to 96%, making them a reliable solution for tooth replacement. By replacing missing teeth, implants help maintain the integrity of your dental structure, preventing the shifting of adjacent teeth and reducing the risk of gum disease.

 

Dental Implants Help You Eat Nutritious Foods

You know a balanced diet is the key to good health. But missing teeth can make it difficult to eat and absorb the nutrients your body needs. People with missing or damaged teeth often resort to soft foods like shakes, pasta, and soups, which may lack the essential nutrients needed for overall health.

Dental implants give you the strength to chew without worry, allowing you to enjoy a wider variety of foods, including tougher and more nutritious options like meat, nuts, and crunchy vegetables. As you’re able to eat foods rich in protein fiber, and more, you can support your overall health without the threat of damaging your remaining teeth.

According to Healthline, individuals with dental implants reported improved chewing ability and better overall nutrition than those with traditional dentures or missing teeth.

By enabling a diverse and healthy diet, dental implants can improve digestion and nutrient absorption, enhancing overall well-being.

 

A Great Smile Boosts Mental Health

A great smile can go beyond physical health. Having a complete set of teeth can also boost mental health.

When teeth are missing, it’s easy to feel self-conscious about your appearance. Even a little doubt can lead to social anxiety and decreased self-esteem. Dental implants provide a natural-looking solution that can restore confidence and improve quality of life.

Several studies have found a strong association between oral health problems and mental health issues. It can lead to reduced interactions that further exacerbate the negative feelings you have surrounding your smile.

By addressing missing teeth with dental implants, you can reduce the psychological burden and enjoy a more positive outlook on life.

 

Are Dental Implants the Right Choice for You?

Dental implants aren’t the answer for everyone. However, evaluating your dental health, lifestyle, and overall well-being can help you determine whether or not a FastNewSmile® is the choice for you.

One of the primary signs that you might benefit from dental implants is the presence of one or more missing teeth.

Missing teeth means your mouth’s functionality will quickly degrade. Dental implants can restore both functionality and aesthetics, preventing further teeth shifting and maintaining natural jaw structure. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants offer a permanent solution for a smile you can be proud of for life.

Another indicator that dental implants might be suitable for you is if you struggle with loose or uncomfortable dentures. Traditional dentures can cause irritation, slippage, and difficulty eating certain foods. If you’re tired of the inconvenience and discomfort of removable dentures, implants provide a stable and secure alternative.

Additionally, if missing teeth have led to bone loss in your jaw, dental implants can help stimulate bone growth and prevent further deterioration. Good candidates for dental implants typically have healthy gums and sufficient bone density to support the implants. However, even if you don’t have perfect gum health, we offer Pterygoid dental implants that could enhance your dental health and quality of life.
