Dental implants are a more permanent and secure option than other types of false teeth, such as dentures. Implants are surgically implanted into the jawbone, providing a strong and stable foundation for the artificial tooth. Additionally, unlike dentures, dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function just like natural teeth, allowing for more natural chewing, speaking, and smiling. They also help preserve the jawbone, which can help prevent the facial structure from changing shape due to tooth loss.
