If you&#8217;ve lost a tooth, the gap in your smile may affect your self-esteem. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canyoncreekfamilydentistry.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implant<\/a> can replace your lost tooth using a solution that looks and feels natural. Here&#8217;s why you won&#8217;t think twice before showing off your pearly whites by investing in the cosmetic benefits of dental implants.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look Like a Natural Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A dental implant is unlike any other treatment because it mimics both the tooth root and the crown. A titanium implant post will be inserted into your jaw and hidden below your gums while supporting your customized restoration. It will match the color, size, and shape of your real teeth to blend in. Only a trained dental professional will know it isn&#8217;t natural.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Protects Your Facial Structures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Losing a tooth causes your jawbone to deteriorate slowly because it isn&#8217;t being stimulated by the root. Your jaw can shrink by up to 25% within the first year of missing a tooth, which will continue to deteriorate as time passes. The shape of your face will change, making you look years older.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since a dental implant replaces the tooth root, it stimulates new bone growth. A dental implant is the only treatment to offer jawbone preservation to protect the shape of your face.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look 10 Years Younger<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As your jaw shrinks, your facial tissues can lose support. You can experience premature wrinkles, sagging skin, and a sunken appearance, which can add years to the way you look. Not to mention, tooth loss is associated with being elderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers have found that replacing missing teeth can take 10 years off your appearance. Filling the gap in your smile with a dental implant will help you avoid wrinkles and sagging skin by keeping your jaw healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feel Like a Real Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A dental implant has the support of your jawbone. Whether you are chatting with a friend, enjoying a family meal, or smiling for a picture, your dental implant will stay firmly in place. It will feel just like a real tooth, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about any instability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;ve lost a single tooth, multiple teeth, or all of them, most patients with good oral health and overall wellness are candidates for dental implants. You can boost your confidence and improve your quality of life when choosing the most successful method of treating missing teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Dr. Michael Ahn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canyoncreekfamilydentistry.com\/michael-ahn.html\">Dr. Ahn<\/a> earned his dental degree from Loma Linda University and has continued his education in various specialties, including dental implants.
