Rediscover the feeling of chewing firmly like real teeth thanks to dental implants with Mr. Le Huynh Thanh Tam

Tasteless meals and the obsession of "near tooth loss" in old age

Before implant placement, Uncle Tam's life was summed up in the word "inconvenience". Losing all his teeth caused his jaw to lose its biological fulcrum.

• The jawbone disappeared, causing his lower face to shorten and his lips to collapse inwards, creating an appearance older than his real age.

• The removable denture he had hoped for was actually the "enemy" of his gums. Continuous friction causes gums to become swollen and painful every time you chew hard things. He shared:"Sometimes when I go to parties with my children and grandchildren, I only dare to look because I'm afraid my jaw will loosen and fall out without realizing it."
