Study Shows Dental Implants can Save Money and Increase Quality of Life

Here at Hamlin Dental Group we are awfully proud of our reputation for first-rate dentistry, and we like to have a good time. After all, as the dental professionals who are renowned for both unparalleled skill and our warm, gentle demeanor, we've certainly got a lot to boast about...and that puts us in a good mood! However, it's also important to remember that, as the dentist in Van Nuys that is trusted by children, seniors and everyone in between, our work is very important, and requires the utmost care.

That's why we work hard to keep up to date with dental and medical news, a habit that often exposes us to some fascinating new information. For example, on Monday, it was reported on the site Medical News Today that a recent report shows that dental implants offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional treatments that can substantially improve the quality of life for patients.

The report was cited on PubMed, the US National Library of Medicine located at the National Institutes of Health, is based on a systematic review of all available studies published in English between 2000 and 2010 relating to the cost-effectiveness of various tooth-replacement options. 

While some implant options came with higher initial costs than other methods, the consensus was that dental implants represent a cost-effective treatment option over the long term. A trend toward overall imprved oral-health and quality of life was also reported.

For patients of your friendly dentist in North Hollywood, this is particularly great news - as we offer incredible options for dental implants, and always attached by an expertly skilled, gentle dental professional. Okay, so we got a little bragging in there, but hey, with track record like ours, can you really blame us?!
