The Success Rate of Dental Implants Speaks for Itself
Missing teeth can cause myriad problems. From issues with chewing and speaking to jawbone loss and alignment problems, even one missing tooth can be tough. Plus, when missing teeth are in the front, many people feel self-conscious about smiling and interacting with others.
Dental implants are the ideal solution for replacing missing teeth. Not only do they look and function just like your natural teeth, they’re nearly permanent, easy to care for, and best of all, they boast a high success rate.
According to this study, the success rate of dental implants ranges from 90 to 95 percent. As technology and dental innovations improve, the success rate may grow even higher.
