Are dental
implants stronger than natural teeth? In 2013, a group of
dentists found out that natural teeth are no different from
prosthetics in terms of survivability, especially when proper oral
hygiene is a factor. The researchers even recommended holding on to
problem teeth for as long as possible.
Without a doubt,
everyone should try to preserve natural teeth as much as possible
through good oral care. This includes regular cleaning, avoiding
teeth-decaying food, and visiting the dentist regularly. With proper
care, natural teeth can last an entire lifetime.
However, losing a
permanent tooth or more is something that many people have to deal
with for a number of reasons. Tooth decay remains the leading cause
of tooth loss. Others include gum diseases and traumas from
accidents. To someone who has lost permanent teeth, dental implants
provide the best alternative in teeth replacement.
Comparisons to natural
teeth’s strength notwithstanding, dental implants are, in fact,
very durable, considering that the implants bond permanently with the
user’s jawbone. Also, unlike natural teeth, they are resistant to
decay. Their strength and structure allow dental implants to perform
very much like natural teeth, which helps restore the user’s oral
digestive functions and facial muscles, and thus improve overall
heath.
