If you have missing teeth then you’re not alone. It might come as a surprise but roughly ¼ of adults in the US have lost all their teeth. Many people who have multiple missing teeth will choose to get dentures. Although dentures do an admirable job, they’re not particularly convenient and require constant care. Luckily there is a better alternative in the form of dentures.
Below are some of the biggest benefits.

- More convenient than dentures
There’s no doubt that dentures will improve your appearance significantly, particular if its front teeth that you are missing. The implants are designed to look exactly like real teeth and when fitted by a professional, your teeth will look fantastic.
When you look better, you will almost certainly feel better too. Knowing that you have a full set of functioning teeth that look great will do wonders for your confidence, particularly if having missing teeth has been causing you to feel self-conscious for quite some time.
This is one of the biggest benefits of dental implants. When you have dentures, it can be quite difficult or uncomfortable to eat certain kinds of food. This is not a problem with implants since they enable you to eat any type of food with comfort and confidence.
Everybody has spoken to somebody who is clearly wearing dentures that affects their speech. It’s one of the biggest downsides that come with dentures due to how they’re held in place. This is not an issue with implants since they’re placed directly into your gums, meaning there’s no hinderance to your tongue or the rest of your mouth when speaking.
Dentures must be removed and cleaned regularly. This might not seem like a big deal at first but it can soon become a chore. You don’t have this worry with dental implants – once they’re fitted you can forget they’re even there!
