They consist of a post that is inserted into your jawbone, an abutment that screws into the post, and a crown that attaches to the abutment. The crown is the only part of the implant that you can actually see and is made to look just like a natural tooth. <\/p>   <div class=\"wp-block-image\"> <figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/05\/parts-of-a-tooth-implant-image.svg\" alt=\"cons of dental implants\" class=\"wp-image-30878\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The parts of an implant act like natural teeth<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>   <p>Dental implants are the best way to replace missing teeth because they act very similarly to natural teeth. Not only does this mean that you can chew and enjoy food just like with regular teeth, but it also means that aesthetically, nobody will notice anything different. <\/p>    <p>And most importantly, they address the problems that people with missing teeth struggle with. When you have a missing tooth, you don&#8217;t have the root of the tooth to nourish and stabilise the surrounding jawbone.<\/p>    <p>The result is that the jawbone loses its density and structure. This can have negative impacts on surrounding teeth and causes the facial muscles to weaken and sag inwards. <\/p>    <h2 id=\"pros-and-cons-of-dental-implants\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros and cons of dental implants<\/h2>    <p>As with any tooth-replacement method, there are both <strong>advantages and disadvantages of dental implants<\/strong>. Let&#8217;s take a closer look at these now. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advantages of dental implants<\/h3>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Functionality<\/h4>    <p>Dental implants function just like regular teeth. Sometimes when people have dentures \u2014 a more affordable, but arguably inferior tooth replacement option \u2014 the dentures slip or don&#8217;t fit comfortably. <\/p>    <p>This can cause problems with speech and with chewing. With dentures, you may have to alter your diet to eat softer foods. <\/p>    <p>But with dental implants, you can expect to continue your normal habits, and you don&#8217;t have to worry about an implant slipping about. You do, however, have to make sure to take extra good care of your implants, including flossing and brushing just like you would with a normal tooth. <\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Durability<\/h4>    <p>The post of a dental implant is made to last a lifetime, which means that with proper care, you only have to get implant surgery once. The crown will typically last from 10 to 15 years before you need to get it replaced, due to daily wear and tear. <\/p>    <p>If you take particularly good care of your implant, your crown may last longer. Compare this lifespan with dentures, which only last up to about five years before you have to pay for a replacement.<\/p>   <a style=\"display: inline-block;\"                                 class=\"header_main-quote popup-open header_main-quote-btn\">Get a free quote for dental treatment abroad<\/a>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Appearance<\/h4>    <p>Dental implants look just like regular teeth. The crown is the only part of the implant that you see. This is typically made out of porcelain and is customised to match the rest of your teeth, both in colour, size, and form. <\/p>    <p>When an implant is made well, nobody will be able to tell that you have one. This is an obvious difference from dentures, which can often be quite noticeable when you are wearing them. <\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Health<\/h4>    <p>There are various health benefits of having dental implants compared to other options for replacing teeth:<\/p>   <div class=\"wp-block-image\"> <figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/01\/Smiling-older-man.jpg\" alt=\"tooth implants pros and cons\" class=\"wp-image-10292\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dental implants can have some good health benefits compared with alternatives<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>   <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Diet:<\/strong> When you are missing even just one tooth, chewing foods can be difficult \u2014 altering your diet, and contributing to the deterioration of your overall health and wellbeing. You might find yourself switching to softer, less nutrient-dense foods. With dental implants, you can chew normally and follow a healthy diet. <\/li>    <li><strong>Bone health<\/strong>: Tooth roots stimulate the jawbone and help it maintain its shape and the shape of your face. Dental implants do the same thing, and in doing so, prevent bone loss and stop your face from sagging inwards. <\/li>    <li><strong>Gum disease<\/strong>: When you are missing a tooth, you are at greater risk for gum disease because the gums begin to recede. This creates a pocket where bacteria can thrive. This happens with bridges and dentures because they have spaces underneath where bacteria can grow as well. With dental implants, as long as you maintain a good oral hygiene routine with flossing and brushing, you can lower your risk of gum disease. <\/li>    <li><strong>Mental health<\/strong>: With missing teeth, some people may feel self-conscious about the way they look, talk and eat. Dental implants let you do these things normally, without slipping or clicking like dentures sometimes do. This can restore your confidence and reduce anxiety. <\/li> <\/ul>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disadvantages of dental implants<\/h3>    <p>While the <strong>advantages of dental implants<\/strong> are great, there are also some disadvantages to consider before committing to this treatment. Let&#8217;s learn more about these now:<\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost<\/h4>    <p>Dental implants are by far the most expensive way to replace missing teeth. A single implant can cost you anywhere from \u00a31,850 to \u00a33,600. <\/p>    <p>If you need a full mouth of dental implants, there are ways to bring the price down a bit, like opting for <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/all-on-4-implants\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"3866\" target=\"_blank\">all-on-4 dental implants<\/a>, which only require four posts to be placed in each arch. These cost around \u00a310,000 per arch. <\/p>    <p>There are ways to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/cheap-dental-implants\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"58\" target=\"_blank\">save money on dental implants<\/a>, including visiting a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/dentalygo.co.uk\/?utm_source=dentaly&amp;utm_campaign=implantproscons\" target=\"_blank\">dentist overseas<\/a>.

When you&#8217;ve gone a long time with missing teeth, your jawbone structure weakens and deteriorates. If too much of your jawbone has gone, then there may not be enough to support an implant. <\/p>    <p>There are ways around this problem, however, like bone grafts, or implants that are inserted into your cheekbone instead of your jawbone. <\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extra treatment<\/h4>    <p>Before you get dental implants you need to have a clean bill of health. This may mean getting a jawbone graft to reinforce deteriorated bone, or gum grafts to address pockets caused by gum disease. Depending on your dentist and treatment plan, these costs may be in addition to the costs of your implants. <\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surgery<\/h4>    <p>Dental implants require surgery, which on its own, may scare you, but there is also lots of recovery time involved.

But the high cost can make them out of the question for many patients. <\/p>    <p>If you can&#8217;t afford dental implants, it&#8217;s still important to replace your teeth, and a quality set of dentures or a bridge is definitely better than nothing. <\/p>    <h2 id=\"are-there-any-reasons-not-to-get-dental-implants\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any reasons not to get dental implants?<\/h2>    <p>Dental implants may have several advantages over other restoration options, but they also come with some drawbacks.
