Considering dental implants? We’re here for you! If this is your first time diving into the world of dental implants, you may have some questions. We want to make a potentially unfamiliar dental treatment feel a little more familiar.
Let’s dive into some common questions and answers about dental implants:
1. How long do dental implants last?
One of the main reasons why people choose dental implants over dentures is due to the longevity of dental implants. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. They’re designed to be a permanent solution for missing teeth!
2. Are dental implants right for me?
If you’re missing a tooth or teeth, have good overall oral health and sufficient bone density in your jaw, there’s a good chance that dental implants are a good solution for you.
However, there are a number of factors that contribute to whether dental implants are the best treatment route. When you visit Dr. Montoya at our dental implant office in Jacksonville, he’ll perform an exam at no cost ($430 value) to determine whether you’re a good candidate.
3. How common are dental implants?
Dental implants are more common than you may think! They look identical to natural teeth, so it can be difficult to spot them. They’ve become increasingly popular in recent years, with an estimated 3 million people having dental implants and an additional 500,000 more people every year (according to the AAID.)
4. How do I care for dental implants?
Proper care and maintenance are essential for ensuring the longevity of your dental implants. The good news is that caring for dental implants is relatively straightforward. Since implants function like natural teeth, you can maintain them by following a regular oral hygiene routine.
Brush your teeth at least twice daily (gently around your dental implant), floss your teeth at night (gently), and attend all of your dental check-ups to prevent any issues from developing!
