Furthermore, you\u2019re less likely to smile, which means you have to hide a part of your personality. With summer just around the corner, it\u2019s the best time to take effective action to replace your missing teeth with dental implants in Texarkana. Continue reading to find out what <a href=\"https:\/\/www.texarkanadentistry.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> are and to discover why now is the time to act!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Dental Implants?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike any other form of tooth replacement, dental implants are surgically attached to the jawbone to provide the same security as the original tooth roots. The implants are made from durable and bio-compatible titanium, which fuses with the underlying bone over a period of six to nine months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next step is for the dentist to add abutments, which could be likened to anchors. By attaching directly to the implants, they allow a final restoration to be added to leave you looking, functioning and feeling like a brand-new person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why the Summer is the Best Time to Act<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After spending time confined to the indoors due to weather or the pandemic, summertime is more welcomed than ever. That means plenty of get-togethers, picture taking, traveling and other fun happenings. If you\u2019re feeling uncertain about your smile, here\u2019s how dental implants can help:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A natural look and feel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While other forms of tooth replacement rest above the gums and can be subject to shifting, implants are inserted at the jawbone level. Thus, they create a more natural looking smile. Furthermore, implants can restore up to 75% of your original chewing capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prevention of other cosmetic mishaps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When there is a gap in your smile from any number of missing teeth, the surrounding teeth can begin to shift and cause even more cosmetic issues. By having implants and a restoration placed, you won\u2019t have to worry about this happening, as you\u2019ll have the support needed to maintain a balanced smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A more youthful appearance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The absence of teeth eventually leads to changes in the structure of your jaw and face. This can create a sunken appearance and premature wrinkling. The placement of implants could very well be likened to sipping nectar from the fountain of youth, as you\u2019ll be left with a rejuvenated appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step to learning more about the dental implant process is to reach out to a local dentist to schedule a consultation. Along with undergoing a thorough examination to determine your eligibility, you can ask all the questions you may have. Once you feel comfortable, you can get started with achieving a beautiful new smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Torin Marracino earned his dental degree from the University of Tennessee.
