Implants: More than a pretty smile
Article 01 Image, Dentist Sacramento
Dental implants are designed to replicate actual tooth anatomy, including the root. When properly placed, and combined with quality cosmetic restorations, they look just like natural teeth. Not surprisingly, implants are popular among patients who want the best-looking smile. However, many people underestimate their health benefits, according to a recent Consumer Affairs article.

Bone preservation is one of the most important functions of implants. As one Texas A&M University scientist said, “It’s totally amazing.” Because implants take the place of tooth roots, they maintain jawbone strength and size. Without implants, tooth loss leads to bone resorption. Preserving the jawbone helps maintain proper oral structure and function, as well as reducing the risk of fracture.
How can implants help me?
Article 02 Image, Dentist SacramentoMost implants are placed where there are one or more missing teeth. Teeth perhaps lost from periodontal (gum/bone) disease or because there wasn’t enough remaining tooth structure to restore the tooth with any predictable longevity. Most implants are placed where a tooth that had been treated with root canal treatment is now lost. Root canal treatment is a great service that can “save” a tooth for many years but eventually can fail. When a single tooth is lost, the best replacement treatment is an implant. Many people have lost multiple teeth and are now wearing full or partial dentures. These appliances have been the standard for multiple tooth replacement for years. This is the best dentistry had to offer. The problems have been loose, ill-fitting appliances that get food collecting under and in between them. We now have an answer for those who have been suffering for years with these appliances.
