Tooth loss is a big problem in the United States. This is mostly attributed to periodontal disease, a condition that affects half of the total American adult population (according to the CDC). Some people who have suffered tooth loss opt for dentures to normalize their mouth's function, but these often only offer a temporary solution that requires regular replacement and is definitely not a long-term one.
Some of those who wear dentures experience numerous problems with their oral devices, especially when they don't fit properly. This can be utterly bothersome and annoying. Fortunately, there are some dental practitioners that offer a great alternative to wearing dentures: Dental implants. With a dental implant procedure, the normal function of a patient's mouth is fully restored, and they don't have to worry about their teeth being too loose or too tight as they do with dentures.
Dental implants—which are titanium posts that serve as the anchors for the replacement teeth—accurately resemble the root of the natural tooth so they stay in the mouth at all times. Dental implants remain stable and strong even when one is chewing on hard foods like steaks and barbecues. In addition, while dentures are noticeably fake, the replacement teeth used in dental implant procedures are designed to look and feel more natural.
