The Different Uses for Dental Implants

Posted .

Did you know, dental implants can do more than restoring a single tooth? Over the years, dental implants have vastly improved and have new uses that can help many people with their teeth. That is why, our team here at Comfort Dental Care in Paterson, New Jersey, is happy to talk to you about the latest and greatest on dental implants.

Dental implants have been known for many years to restore a single lost tooth. Today, that is still true, a dental implant can be used to restore one lost tooth, however, now they have multiple uses. Dentures have also been known over the years to restore a full set of teeth. Dentures can slip and slide at times, making chewing, talking, and some things difficult. Now, dental implants can be used to lock dentures in place and hold them tight, so there is no more slipping or sliding from your dentures.

Dental bridges can also be great when it comes to restoring more than one tooth. If you struggle with your dental bridge staying put, a dental implant can also hold them in place, giving your jaw full function again. Dental implants are deeply placed and fuse with your bone, which makes them very strong and ideal to lock things in place. They are durable and can last for years to come.
