You hear so many good things about dental implants that eventually, you stop feeling 100 percent excited as a bit of suspicion creeps in. Wait a second, you think to yourself, is all of this really true? As you learn more and more, you’re told that implants can last forever and that they provide you with so many other advantages that your bewilderment grows. Before you push them aside because you feel things just aren’t adding up, we invite you to wade through the myths and the facts with our Conroe, TX team. (Hint: They really do offer a surprisingly impressive means of tooth replacement!).
Why Don’t I Know Anyone With Implants?
You may think you don’t know anyone with dental implants. However, we have to ask: Have you asked every single person you know whether they have implants in place? In many cases, you have no idea because the people you spend time with may not discuss their oral health. Many individuals prefer to hide their tooth loss and quickly replace teeth because they feel embarrassed or they simply consider it a personal matter. Then, of course, there’s the fact that even if you were looking directly at a friend’s smile who does have implants, you wouldn’t be able to recognize them and their restorations as any different from natural teeth! It might be time to start asking around if you’re extremely curious.
Why Doesn’t Everyone Get Them?
As you know, the decision to replace your teeth and the choices you make are all very personal and there’s a lot involved. Though dental implants are certainly extremely cost-effective choice when you’re looking at the big picture (your whole life), the initial investment doesn’t always work for everyone’s budget or comfort level. Then, there’s the fact that not everyone wants to go through oral surgery (or qualifies for it). Remember that everyone has their own feelings and goals, so while implants offer exceptional benefits, some patients may face obstacles or may simply feel more interested in traditionally supported prosthetics.
How Can They Possibly Last Forever?
Yes, we know that it sounds like a far-fetched idea but we remind you that dental implants fuse with the tissue in your jawbone. So, like the natural roots of your teeth that can remain in place forever (unless disease or other damage affects your smile), the same is true for the implants. Learn more when you see our team!
