Hello,

Yes, dental implants are a good long-term solution. It may vary from person to person a little bit, but dental implants are considered to be the longest lasting replacement to natural teeth right now. Dental implants have a success rate in the high 90s if placed by a specialist. You do still have to worry about periodontal disease (periodontitis or receding gums), but since implants are made up of titanium (sometimes a titanium alloy) and porcelain, you do not have to worry about getting cavities in a dental implant. This means that if you are prone to cavities, it may be a good solution for you.
Hope this helps.

My best to you!

Yes Sir!!! Implants are very similar to having your natural teeth again. You still have to floss and get dental cleanings. It is the ideal treatment for missing teeth.

Implants are a longer term solution to missing teeth than any other option. Most people keep implants for life. 

Yes as long as the people take care of them just as one does for teeth.
