In years past, you loved soaking in the sun, taking selfies while you have adventures, and taking it easy. But since you’ve lost a few teeth, you may not have felt keen on letting your smile show as often as you used to.
You’ve decided—you’re going to get dental implants. You’re just waiting for the best time to pull the trigger and start treatment. It’s right now during the summer! These tooth replacements can change your life for the better in countless ways, and this season is a great opportunity to move forward with your fully restored smile. Check out these reasons you should get started!
Implants Look and Feel Real
Although dentures have certainly come a long way in recent years, they still can’t compare to the comfort, stability, and natural appearance of implants. Instead of using suction to stay in place, implants are secured to the jawbone, just like real teeth. They are the closest solution dentistry has to nature and feel pretty lifelike. Plus, the restorations on top of the implants are typically made of porcelain, which are customized to mimic natural enamel.
Implants Stop Premature Aging
If you’re concerned about how you’ll look in your friends’ pictures this summer (and in the future), then get implants as soon as you can. Unlike traditional dentures and bridges, implants don’t simply rest on top of the gums. They actually attach to the jawbone itself. They stimulate new growth, keeping the jawbone strong. Consequently, with implants, you don’t have to worry about facial sagging and thinning lips, common results of tooth loss that can make you look much older.
Implants Give You Freedom
While denture wearers have be careful about what and how they eat, those who have implants can treat them like natural teeth. This means that basically any food is permissible because you don’t have to rely on the suction or adhesive to hold your denture steady. Dental implants give you back the ability to eat the foods you love—especially your summer favorites like corn on the cob, steak, and other staples.
You Can Take It Easy
Summer is supposed to be full of fun activities, but it is also a time to sit back and relax. In other words, this season is designed for you to rest. If you go ahead with getting dental implants, you’ll need a day or two to take it easy following the placement procedure. Why not schedule to have implants placed when you’re already going to have downtime anyway?
Ultimately, you can feel comfortable and happy to be in pictures and memories when you have smile you can be proud of. If you want to regain your confidence for summer adventures ahead, take this summer to get your smile back on track with dental implants.
