Contrary to what the assumed belief is that only aged people wear dentures, there are many young people too who may have to wear dentures such as single tooth or double tooth dentures because of accidents or decayed teeth. This soon turns into a nightmare when you have to remember the next morning where you keep your denture the night before. There are times you may even keep it under your pillow because of being too tired to get up from bed once you lie down. The next morning becomes a frantic time searching between sheets and pillow covers if you have made your bed already. There are times you may rush out of your home without your dentures in place. Imagine that scenario!!

How many times have those with dentures feared sleeping with them on and swallowing them? This is a constant fear that won’t occur with dental implants. Once you have them screwed in place, you need not think about them anymore.

With dentures, there are chances of them breaking when biting too harshly while eating food. Biting dentures can even lead to tiny fragments of the denture wings getting mixed with food and being swallowed. This will never happen in the case of dental implants.

Poor hygienic practices involving your dentures or not removing them at night can lead to infections in your mouth such as stomatitis, thrush or yeast infections. This will never happen with dental implants as they are a single tooth covering a screw and you can brush them like regular teeth.

Dental implants eliminate every possible hassle of maintaining dentures which are a lifelong inconvenience as many who wear them will understand. Moreover, they may have to be replaced time to time. Dental implants are highly durable and you lead a much more relaxed life when it concerns your teeth.
