Can a dental implant protect my overall health?

Learn how oral hygiene can protect your overall health. If you are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants can fill in the gaps with a restorative treatment virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth. If you have been wearing a denture for a long period of time, chances are your jawbone has diminished and you have needed one more denture relines to get a good fit with your denture. Dental implants can help to restore bone and provide support for your denture, so the denture stays in place.

Titanium Dental Implants with Strong Biocompatible Material

How do you lock a dental implant in place?

Your dentists in Plymouth place your dental implants, which are made of titanium, a strong, biocompatible material that is kind to soft tissue and bone. Your bone actually begins to fuse with the dental implant, locking it in place. In one simple procedure your dental implants are placed in your jaw, and then after a healing period, your dental implants are capped with beautiful new crowns and become a permanent addition to your smile.

There are many reasons why people love their new dental implants and your dentists in Plymouth want you to discover your own reasons why dental implants are a great way to restore your smile.
