How dental implants can restore your smile

Have you lost a tooth or several teeth? Are you worried about whether you will ever have a great smile again? Don’t worry because dental implants are the answer you’ve been waiting for. Dental implants are the modern, state-of-the-art way to restore function and appearance to your smile. Dr. Joseph Hendrick Jr. in Shelby, North Carolina wants you to know losing a tooth is not the end of your smile!

Dental implants are far superior to conventional methods of tooth replacement like dental bridgework, partials or dentures. Dr. Hendrick wants you to know that when you choose dental implants, you will experience:

• A natural looking smile that you will want to show off
• Permanence and stability, because dental implants don’t move
• Convenience, because you don’t have to remove them for cleaning
• Satisfaction, because you can eat what you want without worry
• A conservative treatment because there is no preparation of adjacent teeth

Your dental implants are also stain resistant and don’t decay, so they will stay bright and beautiful permanently. Dental implants also have a success rate of over 95 percent, higher than any other surgical implant! That’s because dental implants are made of titanium, a unique biocompatible material which is kind to soft tissue and bone. In fact, your bone actually fuses to it, locking it in place.

Dental implants placed by Dr. Hendrick can also make you look younger. That’s because you will create more bone, fusing the implant in place. Your jawline will look firmer and the youthful contours of your face will be restored. In contrast, wearing a denture for a long period of time can make you lose bone. Your bone begins to diminish and the pressure of the denture sitting on your jawbone accelerates the bone destruction.

Isn’t it time you looked younger, better and more self-confident? It’s time to find out why losing a tooth isn’t the end of your smile. Dr. Joseph Hendrick Jr. in Shelby, North Carolina wants to help you discover what dental implants can do for you and your smile, so call today!
