Orlando Benefits of Dental Implants- Dr. Trevisani
Dental implants are the preferred tooth replacement option of many dental professionals, including Dr. Ronald Trevisani, a trusted oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Orlando. Implants look beautiful, feel natural and allow you to speak, smile and eat comfortably. Learn more about the benefits of dental implants, and consider improving the beauty and function of your teeth with these remarkable restorations.
Health and Functional Benefits
Implants are stronger and more reliable than other restorative options such as removable dentures, or crowns/bridges that are cemented into place. The dental laboratories that Dr. Trevisani works with use top-quality, durable materials for both the implant posts and the prosthetic teeth that screw onto the top of the posts.
Implants are resistant to cavities and easy to clean; they can be brushed and flossed like natural teeth. When properly cared for, implants will last for many years.
Implants have a very high success rate, as long as they are maintained and checked by an implant dentist. According to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, implants have an overall success rate of about 95 percent. The American Academy of Implant Dentistry gives implants a 98 percent success rate. Some studies show that implants placed in the back of the lower jaw show the highest rates of success.
Chewing on an implant stimulates the jawbone, keeping it healthy and preventing deterioration from lack of use. This is a benefit exclusive to implants; other restorative options like crowns and bridges lack a component that reaches down to the jawbone to keep it stimulated and strong.
In general, implants do not affect the structure or integrity of the surrounding teeth. For example, if an implant is replacing a single tooth, the teeth on either side will not need to be ground down to make room for the implant.
You will not be able to feel your implant (at least, any differently than you would a natural tooth), but you will be able to enjoy its beautiful appearance …
Cosmetic Benefits
Implants are difficult to detect; the prosthetic teeth that are affixed to the top of the posts very closely resemble natural teeth in size, shape and color. They may even surpass natural teeth in terms of attractiveness because they are custom-created in a lab, but Dr. Trevisani will make sure the implant blends in with the surrounding teeth. He understands that appearance — as well as function — is important, and strives to use implants that look as great as they feel.
Knowing that your smile looks even and whole (without any gaps between the teeth) will enhance your self-confidence around others in personal and professional settings. You won’t have to hide your smile behind your hand or keep your mouth closed in photos.
