Trying to chew turkey, ham, and other classic holiday foods can be difficult if you have gaps in your smile. In fact, some people may feel too embarrassed to even try! Missing teeth can have a day-to-day impact on your life, especially during the holiday season, as they can make speaking and eating much harder. Although you may not be able to enjoy a complete and functional smile with dental implants<\/a> this<\/em> Thanksgiving, by investing in treatment now, you can by next year! Read on to learn how this leading-edge restorative dental treatment can help you get the most out of Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Eat the Holiday Foods You Love<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you have traditional dentures or have yet to replace your missing teeth, eating foods like meat, roasted vegetables, and other crunchy and chewy side and main dishes can be incredibly difficult. If one of your favorite parts of the holidays is all of the delicious homemade treats, this can put a damper on your celebrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants not only restore the visible portion of teeth, but also the roots. The result is unwavering prosthetics, as well as up to an 80% restored bite force. This means that you can eat virtually any of your favorite foods without having to worry about not being able to easily chew them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Socialize with Greater Ease & Less Anxiety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thanksgiving is a time to come together with friends and family and catch up. However, if you\u2019re missing teeth, a casual and stress-free conversation can turn into one that\u2019s anxiety provoking. Slipping and shifting traditional dentures can lead to slurring, while gaps can make it difficult to pronounce certain words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A restoration secured in place with dental implants won\u2019t shift within the mouth and make it even more difficult to speak. Instead, you\u2019ll be able to pronounce sounds with ease, erasing the lingering anxiety of an accidental slur or slip-up that can interrupt the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel Confident About the Future of Your Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are crafted from titanium, which is a biocompatible metal that has the ability to naturally fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. Not only does this make them look and function like natural, but it also provides crucial support and blood flow to the supportive hard and soft oral tissues. The long-term result is improved oral health, prevention of shifting existing teeth, and less of a risk for advancing dental concerns in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
