Modern dental implants typically last 25 years or longer with proper care, and many last a lifetime. The titanium post that integrates with your jawbone rarely fails once osseointegration is complete. The crown attached to the implant usually needs replacement every 10 to 15 years due to normal wear. At Picasso Dental Clinic, where I've placed implants for patients from 65 nationalities since 2013, success rates exceed 95% at the ten year mark when patients maintain excellent oral hygiene and attend regular checkups.

Dental implants replace the tooth root and crown independently without affecting neighboring teeth, lasting 25 years or more and preserving jawbone. Bridges attach to adjacent teeth for support, requiring grinding down healthy teeth but avoiding surgery and costing less upfront. Implants suit patients with good bone density wanting permanent solutions. Bridges work when neighbors need crowns anyway or when surgery isn't possible. At Picasso Dental Clinic, where I've restored thousands of missing teeth since 2013 treating over 70,000 patients, I recommend implants when feasible for long-term value, but bridges remain excellent alternatives in appropriate situations.
