Compare dental implants and dentures for tooth replacement. Expert prosthodontist advice for Peachtree City, Fayetteville, and Newnan residents.
Dental Implants vs Dentures: Making the Right Choice in Peachtree City
When facing tooth loss, Peachtree City residents have two primary options for restoration: dental implants and dentures. As a board-certified prosthodontist serving Fayetteville, Newnan, and surrounding areas, I help patients make this important decision daily.
Understanding Your Options
Dental Implants: The Gold Standard
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as artificial tooth roots. They offer:
- Permanent solution - Can last a lifetime with proper care
- Natural feel - Functions exactly like natural teeth
- Bone preservation - Prevents jawbone deterioration
- No dietary restrictions - Eat anything you want
TIP
For Peachtree City patients, dental implants provide the most natural tooth replacement option available.
Dentures: Traditional and Cost-Effective
Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that replace missing teeth:
- Lower initial cost - More budget-friendly upfront
- Non-surgical option - No surgery required
- Quick solution - Can be completed in weeks
- Suitable for multiple missing teeth
Comparing Long-Term Value
Dental Implant Benefits for Georgia Residents
- Durability: Implants can last 25+ years with proper maintenance
- Oral health: Preserve adjacent teeth and jawbone structure
- Confidence: Speak and eat without worry about movement
- Convenience: No removal for cleaning
When Dentures Make Sense
Dentures may be preferable for patients who:
- Have multiple missing teeth
- Prefer non-surgical treatment
- Have budget constraints
- Need immediate tooth replacement

Making Your Decision
Consider these factors when choosing between dental implants and dentures:
Lifestyle Factors
- Active lifestyle: Implants offer more freedom

- Dietary preferences: Implants allow unrestricted eating
Health Considerations

- Overall health: Must be suitable for surgery
