Can Dental Implants Save You Money?

For people with missing teeth, one of the things that can save them money related to future oral health expenses is dental implants. Today’s dental implants designs are quite predictable for the replacement of missing teeth. Often, people think that receiving traditional dentures saves them money. Although you will save some dollars from the treatment because it is cheaper, it may not last very long and there may arise other issues like bone erosion or even changes in facial structure that could warrant further treatments.

Implants Rarely Require Replacement

Whether you are replacing one, two, or the entire of your natural teeth, dental implants are the most permanent solution. If you are planning to have tooth extractions, implants help preserve the natural alignment of your bite while effectively replacing the performance of the former tooth. If you properly maintain your dental implants, they should be able to last a lifetime. The initial dental implant placement costs are what you expect to pay. Any preliminary or bone grafting treatments are discussed during the initial consultation.

Restorations such as dentures and dental bridges require replacement every couple of years. Therefore, the cost can add up over time for these restorations. So when you look at the broad picture, you can see that choosing dental implants saves you dollars in the long run.

Implants Prevent Additional Treatment

Dental implants fuse with the bone becoming part of it. They help protect the remaining teeth and prevent things like bone erosion. Also, dental implants make it easier to keep up with your oral hygiene, hence helping prevent gum disease, decay, and perhaps misalignment of the bite. Once you have received them, it is unlikely you will need a replacement. Find out about saving money with dental implants.
