There\u2019s nothing like some low-stakes social pressure to make you work up an appetite. Still, if you\u2019d rather avoid racing thoughts and mild awkwardness, how about mentioning your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierdentalorlando.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a>? Here are a few reasons why you\u2019ll be grateful to have them this holiday season!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat More Turkey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is Thanksgiving all about? Besides being grateful and celebrating history, it\u2019s all about FOOD! Dentures retain 30% of your chewing power, which might get you a pie with soft crust and a smooth filling. Dental implants, though, retain 90% of your chewing power. With that much strength and durability, you can eat all of your holiday favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Absorb More Nutrients From Your Dinner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know that your chewing ability affects how well you absorb nutrients? Chewing is an important step in not choking, but it also helps break down food and mix it with saliva. Essentially, the enzymes in your saliva help your digestive system get more out of your meal. Thankfully, dental implants give you max chewing capacity, so you get max benefits when you <em>gobble gobble.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Talk and Smile Confidently with The Fam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the whole family is seated around the glorious Thanksgiving table, there\u2019s a lot of chewing and lip smacking \u2013 and also a lot of talking and laughing. Dental implants are anchored down to your jawbone, just like natural teeth. That means you won\u2019t have to worry about them slipping out of place while you\u2019re trying to compliment the chef or smile for photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Protect Your Future Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being anchored to your jawbone comes with another advantage: preserving your jawbone mass. You see, missing teeth affect the structural integrity of your jawbone in a bad way. Over time, it starts to recede, thinking that because there isn\u2019t a dental root or titanium post for it to hold onto, it must not be needed (talk about dramatic!). Basically, dental implants encourage your jawbone to stay and grow \u2013 which saves you from having hollow-looking cheeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dental implants are a great replacement to have in your regular day-to-day. During the holidays, though, their benefits really make you thankful that modern dental technology has advanced this far! If you need something to be grateful for this Thanksgiving, put dental implants on your top five list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierdentalorlando.com\/meet-dr-scarpitti.html\">Dr. Matthew Scarpitti<\/a> has an impressive list of experiences, not least of which includes implant dentistry.
