Are you having some trouble making a decision? As in, are you feeling like you want to ultimately choose dental implants in Livonia, MI but you are so inundated with information at this point, that you sort of wish you could walk away, ignore the spaces in your smile, and just stop dealing with tooth replacement at the moment? We understand! This is new territory and can end up feeling somewhat “too much” as you go along. We encourage you to get back to basics if you feel a little bit frazzled. It will help you much more simply determine whether implants are for you or if, perhaps, beginning with a traditionally supported prosthetic is a better start.
You Loved Learning About The Stability
Remember that one of the first things you learned about dental implants (and why you probably felt so excited about them) was likely due to the stability that they offer. They don’t move around because they can’t move around! They’re going to be like one unit once they become inserted into your jaw and they bond with the tissue there. So, there won’t be any moving about of your restorations that they support. You’ll really just feel like you’ve got your old smile back!
You Were Taken With The Details Regarding Jawbone Protection
One of the major concerns patients learn about and don’t always realize is a big deal with tooth loss: Jaw deterioration. Your body ends up convinced that since it’s missing teeth, you probably don’t need your jaw any longer. So, your body “takes back” or resorbs some of that tissue. The result? Your jaw shrinks! One way to combat this problem is with the placement of dental implants. They stand in for your roots that used to “tell” your body, “Hey, there are teeth here that need support, so keep this jaw tissue healthy, please!”
The Visual You Created Of Your Future Smile Was A Relief!
What did you think of the moment you learned about dental implants and the way they completely replace your teeth? Did you imagine a beautiful smile that you could show off to those around you? Keep this in mind. It’s real and it may guide you toward your decision.
