Despite their popularity, many myths about dental implants create unnecessary confusion. At Heredia Dental Services, we want to clear them up.

“Dental implants hurt”

False. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is usually less painful than many people imagine. Any subsequent discomfort is mild and temporary.

“They are too expensive”

Although they represent an initial investment, their durability and long-term benefits make them a cost-effective solution.

“They don’t last long”

With proper care, implants can last for decades or even a lifetime.

“Anyone can reject them”

Titanium is biocompatible, so the risk of rejection is minimal when the treatment is performed by qualified professionals.
