Why Do We Place Dental Implants?

Whether you have missing teeth or teeth that are so severely decayed that they need to be removed for the sake of your greater dental health, we strongly recommend that you don’t leave gaps in your mouth. There are different kinds of replacement teeth available, from dentures to dental implants. But what kind of replacement teeth should you get? All things considered, dental implants are the best choice currently available. Dental implants can last a long time—possibly a lifetime, with proper care—and they look, feel and function just like natural teeth. They’re highly stable and appear so realistic, most people won’t even know you have them! As a dental practice, our staff at Elite Dental & Implant Center has training in a variety of dental treatments, including dental implants. To give you a fuller understanding of dental implants and their benefits, we’ve put together this list of frequently asked questions. We hope you’ll find it helpful!
