Which solution would you prefer for your child: an implant or their natural teeth?
Issues with implants in the dental aesthetic zone
Bone Loss
Bone loss from implants refers to the reduction in bone density around the implant site. The dark areas around the circled implants (pictured) indicate bone loss.
Difference in Bone Height
Teeth continue to erupt and move throughout your life, but implants stay in place, which causes difference in bone height. This is reflected by the misalignment in the image above.
Aesthetic Concerns
Gum recession, discoloration, and implant visibility are a few of the aesthetic issues that develop due to the use of implants as a solution for missing teeth.
“The better dentist you are, the fewer dental implants you insert. There is an overuse of implants in the world and an underuse of teeth as targets for treatment.”
