Life tends to slow down during the warmer months, which means you have more time for dental appointments and recovering from your placement surgery. Here&#8217;s why you don&#8217;t want to wait another year to invest in a complete smile.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boost Your Confidence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tooth loss can affect your confidence. If you have anxiety about a lost tooth being the focal point of your smile, you can look and feel your best by filling the gap with a dental implant.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A titanium post is placed into your jaw to support a customized restoration that will look like a real tooth. You can smile confidently because only a trained dental professional will know it is not natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stop Jawbone Deterioration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tooth loss can cause your jaw to shrink by up to 25% within the first year. It will continue to deteriorate as time passes. Not only does this increase your risk of additional tooth loss, but it can also make you look years older.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dental implant is the only treatment to stop bone loss. The implant post will serve as a new tooth root, stimulating bone growth to keep your jaw strong and healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look 10 Years Younger<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Missing teeth are associated with being elderly. Researchers have found that replacing lost teeth can take 10 years off your appearance. Not only will you have a complete smile, but you&#8217;ll have a healthy jaw. This will provide your facial tissues with support to prevent premature wrinkles, sagging skin, or a sunken appearance. You don&#8217;t have to turn to plastic surgery to restore a youthful appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reduce Your Overall Dental Expenses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants have over a 95% success rate. They are proven to last for 30 years or more with the correct care, like brushing and flossing. You&#8217;ll save money down the road because you&#8217;ll never have to budget for replacements, like with traditional prosthetics. With dental implants offering jawbone preservation, they will also improve your oral health. You&#8217;ll be less likely to need costly dental work later to save even more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time for Your Recovery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll require oral surgery to place your implant post into your jawbone. Therefore, you can expect to need to take a few days off from work. If you have paid time off, you can use it during your recovery. You&#8217;ll also have the time for follow-up appointments and the restoration phase of your treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t spend another summer with an incomplete smile. You look your best for many summers to come by investing in dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Dr. Nelson Y.
