Benefits of Dental Implants
While the initial cost of dental implants is higher than other tooth replacement options, they make up for this because they are low-maintenance.
1. Easy to clean
With just tooth brushing, flossing and regular visits to your dentist/denturist, your dental implants can stay in top condition for many, many years.
2. They last longer
Unlike traditional dentures, which need to be replaced every 5-7 years, with the proper care, denture implants can last you a lifetime.
3. They are permanent
When you opt for denture implants, you never have to worry about putting them in or taking them out. Unlike a partial denture, your dental implants won’t be at risk of breaking or getting lost. They also provide many patients with peace of mind and boosted confidence, because the implants will not slip. This means that, overall, the cost of dental implants can be comparable to, if not less than, other tooth replacement options. They are often less expensive than traditional dentures over time, while giving even better results.
