Dental Implants are the best way to replace missing teeth.
Dentistry is moving at a fast pace. It is unfortunate hat many dentists don’t take the time to keep current with modern advancements. Dental implants have been used in dentistry for decades but yet dentists are still placing old fashioned bridges. This is horrible because old fashioned bridges have so many ill effects.
Old Fashioned Bridges:
- Irreversibly damage teeth (dentist must grind away healthy tooth structure to make space for the bridge)
- Do not preserve or stimulate the gum tissue and bone.
- Difficult to clean because three teeth are fused together.
- About half of all bridges fail withing 15 years. This creates larger financial and dental problems.
- Most bridges fail due to decay or a failed root canal.
