Our TEETH are important! Dental plans NEED to cover implants! 

Dental implants can improve your health
It’s hard to focus on anything else whenever we see someone who has one or several missing teeth. But the condition is much more than cosmetic. Having missing teeth is a full-blown health crisis. According to the Mayo Clinic, people without their teeth are at risk of cutting their life short by about 10 years. The reason is simple. Without teeth, you cannot maintain a healthy diet. Dental implants will allow you to eat and digest food much like you would with natural teeth.

Dental implants preserve the jawbone
When the teeth are lost, the jawbone will recede. As the jawbone changes shape, so does the shape of your mouth. Jawbone recession gives people that sunken in look and causes wrinkles to develop around the mouth. These changes make you look much older than you really are. This constant movement also affects the fit of the denture, especially the lower denture. Jawbone changes can cause the denture to shift around in the mouth. Dental implants merge with the bone and preserve the bone.
