Currently, over 2.5 billion people or over 36% of the world’s population suffer from some sort of tooth decay in their permanent teeth. All adults will have dental cavities at some point in their life. Dental cavities are more common in the developed world and less common in developing countries simply because sugar consumption is higher in developed countries. Dental cavities are very common, but what do we know about preventing them? Here is a breakdown of the 8 ways to prevent tooth decay.

Dental implants are an effective way to replace missing teeth and provide a good tooth structure. For a single tooth implant, your dentist will prepare a new tooth for you, called a dental crown. Or if you are in need of more than a single tooth, customized bridges or dentures will be made to fit your full mouth and your implants. 

Dental implants are like artificial tooth roots, similar in shape to screws. When they are placed in your jawbone, they bond with your natural bone. 3 million people in the United States have implants. The annual number is growing gradually, which is now around 500,000. Modern dental implants have been used for over 30 years successfully.
