After all, these prosthetics make for great tooth replacements! Still, you could count on implants to do more than just fill your smile. Did you know they also make your face look younger? Indeed, they\u2019re the only dental restorations that can! As for why that\u2019s the case, your Dallas dentist is here to explain. Read on to learn how dental implants prevent and even reverse facial aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">They Prevent Tooth Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ordinarily, your remaining teeth will shift toward spaces left by missing ones. As this process continues, they\u2019ll eventually tilt and fall out. Left untreated, your smile will then get tooth gaps that age your looks significantly. Plus, your empty jaw sockets will become breeding grounds for harmful bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, dental implants stop such tooth loss. Since they fill the spaces in your smile, they stop your other teeth from shifting and falling. As a result, you won\u2019t have any grizzled gaps that make you seem old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">They Reverse Wear &amp; Tear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, even well-maintained teeth show signs of aging. Namely, they start to wear down and develop chips, cracks, and other flaws. Given how often they\u2019re used to chew food, it\u2019s a natural development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even so, dental implants can reverse this wearing and tearing. In particular, your dentist can pull damaged teeth and replace them with the prosthetics. That way, your yellow and cracked smile can give way to a white, shiny, and smooth one. From there, you can enjoy a more vibrant appearance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">They Make Your Face Fuller<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Missing teeth can harm your jaw as well as your smile. You see, your jawbone needs stimulation to preserve its bone tissue. When you lose teeth, though, the stimulus is reduced. Consequently, you\u2019ll suffer bone loss near your now-empty jaw sockets. Your face will then suffer a \u201ccollapse,\u201d making it seem hollow and gaunt. You\u2019ll seem more aged as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, dental implants fill your jaw sockets and stimulate nearby bone tissue. In doing so, they prevent bone loss and help your face stay full and youthful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, dental implants will restore your smile to its former self. As you can see, though, their anti-aging effect shouldn\u2019t be ignored!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cocodentalcenter.com\/\">The Coco Dental of North Dallas<\/a> is based in Dallas, TX.
