Q. Are dental implants more longer lasting than the other options for missing teeth like a dental bridge? How long is the life of an implant expected to be?
A. When having a bridge you have to remove tooth substance , therefore effecting the prognosis of the teeth. Implants have a life span of approximately 10 to 15 years but can last longer if looked after and seeing the hygienist regularly.
