Thanksgiving dinner is an annual tradition that gives people the chance to enjoy the company of friends and family while feasting on a range of delicious foods and beverages. Unfortunately, tooth loss can make it exceedingly difficult to enjoy many Thanksgiving favorites. Here’s how replacing your lost teeth with dental implants can give you the chewing power you need to handle the toughest fare as well as a smile that’s sure to look great at the table and in photographs.
There’s No Reason to Groan When You Can Enjoy Meat off the Bone
If there’s one dish people typically associate with Thanksgiving, it’s Turkey. This bird can be grilled, roasted, or fried to produce a tasty meal that might make you need a nice nap afterward, but people with missing teeth often have difficulty enjoying cuts of meat that are typically served on the bone. Thankfully, dental implants allow patients to exert the maximum biting and chewing force they need to enjoy bone-in meats like drumsticks, wings, and thighs.
You Can Go Far When Your Smile Shines Like the Stars
A beautiful smile is the perfect accessory because it fits amazingly well with any outfit and communicates confidence and joy to the people around you. Sadly, many people with missing teeth are shy about showing off their smiles for fear of others noticing the empty spaces in their grins. Restoring your teeth with dental implants can give you a gorgeous smile that you’ll be proud to show off in person or to have recorded in photographs.
Show Your Smile Some Gratitude: Take Care of It!
The mouth serves as an entryway into the body, and keeping it clean and healthy is one of the best things you can do to prevent illness. Unfortunately, tooth loss can lead to oral health problems such as gum injuries, dental misalignments, jawbone erosion, and even the loss of more teeth. Restoring your smile with dental implants can preserve the strength of your jawbone, protect your gums from injuries, and help your teeth avoid uneven dental wear.
Restoring your smile ahead of the holidays can help ensure that you have a wonderful time with loved ones as well as a delicious holiday meal. Consulting with your dentist can help you find out if dental implants are right for you.
