3 Reasons Summer is the Perfect Time for Dental Implants

Dealing with missing teeth is hard at any time, let alone during summer. However, this season’s vacations, cookouts, and other activities can make tooth gaps somewhat awkward. Luckily, now is the perfect time to fill in those gaps with dental implants from Falls Church. To prove it, here are three major advantages to treatment during the summer months. Read them and consider if a restored smile might make a key difference to your fun in the sun.

A Summer Schedule Gives You Time for It

Given its opportunities for time off from work and school, summer gives you more flexibility in your schedule than in other seasons. As such, you’re in a better position to schedule a dental implant procedure.

The extra time is helpful post-treatment as well. During your recovery from the implant surgery, you’ll need to take it easy and eat a soft food diet.  You can prioritize your healing instead of rushing back to the office by relying on vacation days and the like.

Implants Look & Feel Like Natural Teeth

Dental implants look and feel more like natural teeth than alternatives like dentures and bridges. Instead of using suction to stay in place, they’re firmly secured to the jawbone and (barring injury) will never fall out. They’re also made from durable ceramic porcelain customized to mimic enamel.

These traits would help you enjoy your summertime. For instance, implants will let you take vacation photos featuring a beautiful smile. After recovery, they’ll let you eat anything you want — including seasonal fare like ice cream, hot dogs, BBQ, etc.

Implants Give Your Oral Health (and Confidence) a Boost

You can improve long-term health of your teeth and gums by filling in your smile. After all, implants replicate both the root and crown to stop jawbone loss. They also stop dental drift and thus lower your risk of preventable issues. You’ll even save money down the road by avoiding costly future treatments, which will reduce your total oral health expenses.

Along with your new smile’s confidence, this oral boost will give you more energy for summer fun. Rather than feeling old, you’ll look and feel ready to play, socialize, and generally appreciate the season’s events.
