The first and most obvious benefit is the enhanced ability to chew and enjoy your food. Using dental implants, the upperteeth can be replaced without covering the roof of the mouth. By exposing the roof of the mouth, the former denture wearer can enjoy the subtle tastes and textures of food and drink that they have been missing out on for so many years. They also stop bone loss in the area where the teeth are missing, which otherwise continues through life. Implants also eliminate the embarrassment and inconvenience associated with removable teeth.
