Considering a Tooth Implant?
There are a lot of reasons you might be thinking about getting tooth implants. Greenwood Village dentists often recommend the procedure because it offers…
A long-term solution. The American Dental Association states that 95% of tooth implants last for 20 or more years. This is a significant increase over the 10-year average you’ll get with a fixed implant, such as a dental bridge.
Greater convenience. With a tooth implant Denver patients can fix an incomplete smile with a strong replacement that works like their existing teeth. If you’ve had to give up foods you enjoy because they are too tough to chew, dental implants may help.
Health benefits. If you have a missing tooth, the surrounding bone may begin to erode in a process called bone resorption. This can call even more attention to the area. With tooth implants, dentists restore the missing tooth with a solution that promotes bone regrowth.
Cosmetic improvements. Tooth implants complete your smile with a natural-looking new tooth. Patients often report greater confidence in social and professional settings following the procedure.
All of these factors may be reasons that you are exploring a tooth implant. The next step: choosing a provider for your procedure. We encourage you to learn more about the work of Dr. Aldo Leopardi, an experienced and knowledgeable prosthodontist.
