Implant crowns help people with missing teeth restore the appearance of their smile. While many have heard about the benefits of dental implants, some avoid treatment as they are still not entirely familiar with the benefits. Learning more about how implant crowns can transform a smile is often helpful for making a decision about treatment.

Cosmetic benefits of implant crowns

There are certainly oral health and function benefits of implant crowns, such as the ability to eat tough foods effortlessly and the ability to preserve bone loss, but there are also many cosmetic benefits as well. The following are four ways in which implant crowns can transform a smile and provide a patient with more confidence each day. 

Natural appearance

A beautiful smile is one that looks healthy, full and natural, all of which can be accomplished by implant crowns. Many consider implant crowns to be the most like natural teeth of any replacement solution, including dentures and fixed bridges. For the most part, they are indistinguishable from natural teeth, and no one is likely to ever guess someone has implants unless they are told.

Complete smile

Not only is it important to have natural-looking teeth, but it is also important to have a complete smile in which all teeth, original or artificial, are in place and all gaps are filled in entirely. Each implant crown is tailored to meet the needs of the individual patient and to fill the specific gap left by the natural tooth. Regardless of the location or size of the tooth, patients can achieve a complete smile through implants. 

Whiter teeth

The process of improving a patient’s smile through implant crowns is not just about replacing missing teeth. Many cosmetic dentists seek to clean and whiten the surrounding teeth as well to ensure the replacement teeth match perfectly with the natural ones. The end result is typically a smile that is brighter than it was before treatment, allowing for a more cosmetically pleasing appearance overall. 

Attractive jawline

A major benefit that implant crowns have over fixed bridges or partial dentures is the ability to preserve bone inside the jaw. When a tooth is lost, the jawbone over time begins to deteriorate. When the dental implant is placed inside the jaw, a process called osseointegration occurs, which is when the bone fuses with the dental implant. Essentially, the implant serves the same role as the root of the tooth, preserving the jaw and preventing the patient’s face from sagging or sinking. Also, implant crowns ensure teeth shifting does not take place, which further ensures proper jaw appearance is not affected by tooth loss.
