Looking to kick off 2021 in a positive way? Want to take back control of your smile by replacing your missing teeth? With dental implants in Everett, you can enjoy a greater quality of life thanks to these permanent and fully functional prosthetics. Designed to rebuild your natural tooth structure from the root up, you can expect to embrace improved aesthetics and boosted confidence for the new year. Read on to learn what you can do to take the next step in your oral healthcare journey and why you should choose dental implants.  

Why Dental Implants are Superior

Dental implants offer what other tooth replacement solutions cannot, which is permanence. Apart from their surgical placement in your jawbone, these titanium posts fuse with the bone and surrounding tissue, creating a solid base for your restoration and decades of improved oral health.

When compared to a fixed bridge or traditional dentures, dental implants stand high above the rest simply because they are permanent and mimic the natural tooth structure from the root to the crown. Providing continuous stimulation to your jawbone to prevent the possibility of facial collapse, they can strengthen your bite force and ensure greater functionality when eating your favorite foods or speaking to family and friends.

With dental implants, you’ll also enjoy:

  • An easier way to clean your new teeth that does not require special tools or additional products. Unlike dentures that require a special solution to soak your prosthetic, you can easily clean your implants using the same products you use to brush your regular teeth.
  • Prosthetics that will last decades or longer with proper care and maintenance.
  • The opportunity to embrace a healthier, more beautiful aesthetic as well as increased confidence.
  • A tooth replacement solution that does not require altering or even touching nearby, healthy teeth (unlike a fixed bridge).

Getting Started in 2021

With the start of the new year, there’s no better time than now to talk to your dentist in Everett about dental implants. While the process does take time, it is well worth it because of the long-lasting smile you’ll get to enjoy in the years to come.

If you have dental insurance, it is likely your benefits renewed on January 1, but remember, most insurance companies still do not offer coverage for dental implants. However, this does not mean they will not provide coverage for other aspects of treatment. From the initial consultation to the potential for any pre-implant dental work (i.e., tooth extraction, periodontal therapy, bone grafting) to your custom restoration, you may be able to ease your out-of-pocket expenses. Otherwise, it is possible, you may be able to apply for flexible financing through CareCredit.

Don’t let another year go by with an incomplete and deteriorating smile. Take back your health and wellbeing with the help of dental implants and get ready to embrace new and exciting opportunities along the way.
