We all know life happens, and you can lose a tooth or two. But does this mean you should live the rest of your life with unsightly gaps? Should you continue to avoid eating your favorite delicacies because of lost teeth? The answer is no. At Gentle Care Dentistry in Azusa, California, we have a solution that functions and looks just like your natural teeth. Dr. Brianne Luu offers implant-based restorations to replace lost teeth without sacrificing esthetics and functionality.

Why you should consider dental implants

Losing your teeth may not be a big deal, but it can throw off the balance of your dental health and pose many problems. We recommend treating your missed teeth immediately because edentulism affects jaw structure, speech, eating ability, and general dental health. 

Whether you have lost one or several teeth, you should consider dental implants because they offer numerous benefits such as the following:

• Esthetic value: Dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth. We top off your dental implant with an esthetically appealing crown, which looks like the tooth you lost — maybe even better
• Improved oral function: Dental implants allow you to eat and talk confidently as if you never lost teeth
• Longevity: We design dental implants to last for life! Your implant fuses with the jawbone to become part and parcel of it. The only part that may need replacement after about 15 years is the crown
• Averts bone loss: When your jawbone lacks stimulation from the natural teeth, it starts breaking down. Jawbone atrophy results in a caved-in face, marring your appearance. Dental implants can stimulate your jawbone like natural teeth to encourage regeneration. No other tooth replacement has this capability
• Easy maintenance: Most patients always shy off from dental restorations that are cumbersome and time-consuming to maintain. Dental implants don’t fall in this category. Caring for dental implants isn’t any different from maintaining your natural teeth. All you need to do is brush twice daily, floss daily, and see a dentist bi-annually
