The pros and cons of dental implants, let me tell you these points

If you eat for a long time, your teeth will be severely worn out over time, which may cause tooth loss. Some people also have broken teeth due to trauma and other reasons. In this case, you can have dental implants after cleaning the tooth roots. Dental implants have many benefits. They can solve the problem of eating and make the face and facial features look neat. However, they also have disadvantages, so we need to understand the pros and cons of dental implants.

1. Benefits of dental implants:

1. The chewing efficiency of dental implants is close to that of real teeth, and there is no inconvenience when chewing. If you wear dentures, the chewing force will be transmitted to the gums every time you chew food, causing pain. They often fall off when you talk or chew food, so it is inconvenient. But dental implants can completely avoid this problem.

2. Dental implants are delicate and beautiful, and their realistic effects are so realistic that they are indistinguishable from the real thing.

3. Dental implants do not require abutment teeth, which means there is no need to grind down the "good teeth" in the mouth, and will not cause any damage to the real teeth in the mouth. This is the biggest advantage of dental implants.

4. The technology of dental implants is already quite mature. The five-year success rate of many brands of implant systems has reached over 95%. This means that as long as you pay attention to oral hygiene, dental implants can remain in the mouth for a considerable period of time.

5. Long service life. Although some adjustments are required, the lifespan is much longer than existing restorations. But the likelihood of needing overall treatment is much smaller than with existing restorations.

6. Maintain the current face shape. If the chewing function is restored, the elasticity of the muscles around the jaw can be maintained, so you can regain your younger appearance. Especially when restoring the function of front teeth, the effect is more obvious.

(II) Disadvantages of dental implants:

Not everyone can do the technology of dental implants. It requires certain conditions to be met. In theory, implant restoration is suitable for all types of missing teeth.

1. Adults who are in good general condition, physically and mentally healthy, and whose bones and teeth have been fully developed;

2. At least 6 months after jaw and alveolar bone surgery and trauma, at least 3 months after tooth extraction, the bone defect has recovered, and the implant bed bone morphology and quality are good;

3. Those with no obvious inflammation or lesions in oral soft tissue.
