Dental implants in the Medina, OH, region are a sensible way to replace one or multiple missing teeth. Dental implants with Dr. Lemke or Dr. Mehandru can also be used to reinforce bridges and dentures so that patients can eat and socialize with greater comfort and ease.
Replacing missing teeth with standard bridges and dentures may provide a solution, but they are not without certain considerations. Bone loss is one of the bigger concerns associated with dental appliances because they do not engage the jawbone. When teeth fall out, bone begins to deteriorate, which can also lead to sagging facial muscles. A slack facial structure makes wearing appliances even more difficult due to the lack of support.
When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants often outperform standard bridges and dentures. They behave like real tooth roots, stimulating the jaw bone daily so that it stays healthy and strong. They also look like real teeth and stay in place permanently so that patients can eat whatever they like and socialize without worry. Or, for patients who choose to wear traditional appliances, dental implants can be used for reinforcement and improve fit and function.
