The Science Behind Bone Loss and How Implants Prevent It
Why Your Jawbone Needs a Tooth Root, Even If It’s Artificial
When a natural tooth is lost, the jawbone no longer receives the pressure and stimulation it needs to stay strong. Over time, this causes the bone to resorb or shrink.
How Implants Protect Your Jawbone:
• They act like a natural tooth root
• They stimulate bone through chewing forces
• They maintain jawbone volume
• They prevent facial sagging and premature aging
No other tooth replacement option, including dentures or bridges, can provide this benefit.
