Continue reading to learn more about implants and how they stand up next to natural teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Do Dental Implants Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, dental implants are made from titanium, and they look like tiny screws. During the placement procedure, your dentist places your dental implants directly into the jawbone. Over the next few months, the dental implants fuse to the jawbone in a process called \u201cosseointegration.\u201d Once complete, the abutments are placed on the ends of your implants. This is what secures your custom-crafted restoration to your jaw. Your restoration is personalized to match the exact size, shape, and color needed to blend in with the rest of your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does the Strength of Dental Implants Compare to Natural Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are the strongest tooth replacement option available. Here are some factors that contribute to their constitution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jawbone:<\/strong> The strength and stability of your dental implant will depend on the health of your jawbone. Thanks to osseointegration, your jawbone will heal around your implants, essentially becoming one. A healthy jawbone can stabilize your dental implants so that they function just as optimally as natural teeth. If your jawbone isn\u2019t strong enough to support an implant, you may need to undergo bone grafting beforehand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>No Tooth Decay:<\/strong> The restorations used to replace your missing teeth are not made from tooth enamel, so they are not susceptible to tooth decay and cavities. Even though these teeth don\u2019t decay, it\u2019s still possible to develop gum disease and your surrounding natural teeth can still experience decay, so it\u2019s important to maintain an excellent oral hygiene routine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Titanium:<\/strong> The implant itself and the abutment attached to the dental implant are both made from surgical-grade titanium. This is one of the strongest metals in the world and is commonly used in the field of medicine because it is biocompatible and resists deterioration. After the titanium and jawbone fuse together, your dental implants are nearly guaranteed to stay in place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants can be just as reliable if not more-so when you take proper care of them. When it comes to tooth replacement, implants are the way to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Jupiter Implant &amp; Cosmetic Dentistry, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jupiterimplantdentistry.com\/meet-dr-shane-vaughn.html\">Dr. W.
