  1. 5 Most Amazing Facts About Dental Implants

  2. Dental implants are a revolutionary development in dental restoration. They provide a tooth-like solution in both form and function. Whether you have lost a single tooth or several teeth, dental implants can restore the appearance of your smile and your oral health and function. However, dental implants may be the most misunderstood of all the glories of contemporary dentistry. Even though dental implants are a restorative dental procedure that is performed on half a million individuals annually of all ages, there are still a lot of myths and misconceptions about them. In this post, we'll uncover secrets about dental implants that will astonish you. Whether you're curious about getting affordable dental implants or simply fascinated by dental innovations, you're in the right place. We've broken down everything into short, digestible bits of information. So, get ready to be surprised by what you discover!

  3. Know the 5 Most Interesting Facts About Dental Implants 1. Dental Implants were First Time Introduced in Approximately 600 AD 2. They're Made of the Same Metal as NASA Spacecraft 3. Dental implants are Cavity-free 4. The High Success Rate and Chewing Power of Dental Implants 5. Dental Implants Act as the Guardians Against Bone Loss

  4. 1. Dental Implants were First Time Introduced in Approximately 600 AD Let's travel back in time to around 600 AD when dental implants first made their appearance. Can you imagine using pieces of shell as teeth? Well, archaeologists have unearthed these shell pieces, used as early dental implants, from this era. They were skillfully placed in the jaws of Mayan women, serving the same purpose as our natural teeth.

  5. 2. They're Made of the Same Metal as NASA Spacecraft Now, here's something new that might surprise you. Dental implants are made of titanium, the very same material used in the construction of NASA spacecraft frames. Why titanium, you might ask? It's because titanium is not only lightweight but incredibly strong, making it the ideal choice for dental implants. Plus, our bodies generally accept titanium without any problems, thanks to its high biocompatibility.

  6. 3. Dental implants are Cavity-free Moving on to another interesting fact about dental implants – they are immune to cavities! That's right, the combination of titanium and porcelain in dental implants means they don't suffer from decay like our natural teeth do. However, this doesn't mean you can neglect the care of your mouth. Without proper hygiene, the area around the implant could still face issues, such as infections or gum disease. And don't forget, your remaining natural teeth are still at risk for cavities, so keep up with your dental care routine.

  7. 4. The High Success Rate and Chewing Power of Dental Implants Here's something to chew on which is that dental implants boast an impressive 95% success rate. With technology constantly evolving and people learning how to care for their implants better, this figure is only expected to rise. Compare this to traditional dentures, which only provide about 30% of your original chewing power. Dental implants, on the other hand, can restore over 70% of it. Imagine enjoying your favorite crunchy or hard foods without the fear of your teeth ending up on someone else's plate. And unlike dentures, implants stay firmly in place, with no shifting or loosening.

  8. 5. Dental Implants Act as the Guardians Against Bone Loss Losing a tooth doesn't just leave a gap in your smile; it also leads to the loss of the bone that supports it. Without a tooth root, the jawbone shrinks or recedes, changing the shape of your face and possibly leading to a sunken appearance. This can add wrinkles and fine lines around your mouth and chin, making you look older. Dental implants step in as heroes here, acting like natural tooth roots. They preserve the jawbone and prevent these age-accelerating changes.

  9. Conclusion Dental implants are not just about smiles; they're a leap towards better health, confidence and youthfulness. With a high success rate, they're a reliable choice. They prevent bone loss and keep your face looking young. Now, with Wynnum Dentists' new patient offer, getting dental implants is more accessible than ever.
