Your confidence suffers because you feel embarrassed about talking and smiling in front of others, while your nutrition suffers because you can no longer properly chew your food. You may have heard that dental implants are the best option for replacing a missing tooth, but the big question is can you tell the difference between a dental implant and your natural tooth? Your cosmetic dentist in Bloomfield Hills has the answer for you!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>What is a Dental Implant?<\/h3>\n<p>A <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaid-implant.org\/about-dental-implants\/what-are-the-benefits-of-dental-implants-over-other-treatments\/\" target=\"_blank\">dental implant<\/a> is the best replacement for your tooth because it replaces both your tooth and your root. This protects the integrity of your jawbone, which can begin to deteriorate without a root in place. Your root is replaced by a titanium post, which naturally integrates with your bone.<\/p>\n<p>Your new tooth is a high quality porcelain crown that your dentist will custom design to match your existing teeth and naturally complement your smile. So the answer is, no! No one will ever be able to tell that you have a dental implant rather than your natural tooth.<\/p>\n<p>Implants are also the most reliable treatment for tooth replacement, boasting a 95% success rate. They are made from high quality, durable, and long lasting materials. With excellent home care and regular check ups with your dentist, your dental implant can potentially last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<h3>Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?<\/h3>\n<p>In order to be successful, implants do require that the patient be in general good health and have enough healthy bone structure to support the implant. Smoking can also hinder the success of dental implants.
