With so many different options for replacing lost teeth, it may not always be obvious what benefits one option may have over another. For example, when you’ve lost one or more teeth, your dentist might recommend replacing them with dental implants rather than a conventional bridge or partial denture. At our Livonia, MI, dentist’s office, we often recommend implants because of the many different benefits they offer compared to more conventional prostheses. (more…)

Why Would I Choose Implant Dentures?
You might wonder why you would choose implant dentures when you have access to lots of other implant-supported restorations like dental crowns, which allow you to replace one individual tooth at a time. The truth is, all implant-and-restoration combinations provide you with amazing stability, beauty, and function! So, while you may start out assuming crowns are “the best,” you may realize over time that something like dentures as your restoration can provide you with what you really need and want.

Implants: How To Make The Most Of 2019
While there’s not a right way … or a wrong way … to approach your interest in dental implants for your smile, one thing is certain: There is definitely a pathway that will help you make the absolute most of 2019 if you are thinking that implants may be for you.

However, if you think over some of the steps our Livonia, MI recommends for you in terms of optimizing your use of time in the new year, you will be quite pleased with the progress you make!
What Does It Mean To Be An Implant Wearer?
You may usually think about implants from the perspective of how they will be able to help you, should you choose them. However, our Livonia, MI team encourages you to instead spend a bit of time visualizing your life as if you are already a dental implant wearer. What does your life feel like on a daily basis? On a long term basis? When you imagine your smile from this outlook, you can often gain a better sense of what it will really mean for you to choose implants to complete your grin.
What An Implant Is (And Is Not)
You may think that you know just what to make of a dental implant. However, if you start talking about what an implant is not, you may find that you’re feeling the slightest bit confused. You know, for instance, that it is a tooth replacement. However, do you know whether it is (or is not) a complete replacement, allowing you to restore your entire tooth? If you are realizing you may have a little more to learn in regard to this stable, long-lasting solution to missing teeth, then it is our Livonia, MI team’s pleasure to offer up the education you need!
