Dental implants vs bridges & dentures
Understanding the clinical differences between permanent implant fixtures and conventional tooth replacement options.
| Clinical Aspect | Dental Implants | Traditional Bridges | Removable Dentures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adjacent tooth damage | Zero (adjacent teeth preserved) | Requires cutting healthy enamel | Clasps place wear on natural teeth |
| Bone preservation | Prevents jawbone shrinkage | Bone under missing tooth recedes | Accelerates jawbone loss over time |
| Stability & comfort | Fixed immovably into bone | Fixed but stresses support teeth | Can slip, click, or irritate gums |
| Chewing efficiency | 100% natural chewing force | Good biting force | Significantly reduced chewing power |
| Expected lifespan | 20+ years to lifetime | Around 10 to 15 years | Around 5 to 7 years |
