The 3 main benefits of dental implants are:
- The ability to not disturb the adjacent teeth.
The biggest advantage of placing an implant would be the fact that when placing that particular implant the dentist would not have to remove any tooth structure from any of the other adjacent teeth. So, in effect your teeth would remain as virgin teeth and just the space would be filled with one tooth. However, when you’re doing a bridge, you have to adjust the tooth in front and the tooth behind, take an impression, then place a bridge over those two teeth that were prepared with a dummy tooth in the center area. So, that is the biggest advantage.
- The ability to replace multiple teeth without a removable device.
Another advantage of placing implants, and we’re talking about multiple implants, would be to have an implant denture or a fixed prosthetic device over a number of implants when a patient has no teeth.
