Do I really need implants? I'm wondering if they last a long time.

I have lost a tooth and I am wondering if I should get an implant.

People around me said that if left untreated, it could affect the gums or surrounding teeth.

I am wondering how many years implants can usually be used.

I want to make a careful decision because of the cost, especially since it is my first time doing it.

I am curious about the satisfaction level of those who have actually had implants, as well as how to care for them.
