Missing teeth can feel embarrassing and make you self conscious about your smile. While it does have an impact on your overall physical appearance, it can also hinder your health. Some people assume that removable dentures are their only option in the case of missing teeth. However, your Portland OR Denturist Tanya Poleon can offer a secure and beautiful alternative to full or partial dentures. Todays blog post will offer some in depth information about dental implants.
Implants are dental restorations that are attached to the jaw that consist of a biocompatible titanium post. The jawbone will bond with the implant and anchor the restoration into place.
The idea behind dentures or implants is that they blend seamlessly with your smile, reflecting your unique facial structure.
Removable dentures help patients to eat and speak, and they do have their pros and cons. Implant dentures are fixed, meaning that there is no movement when the patient eats or socializes. There are no adhesives and they can last up to 25 years.
