Dental Implants
Dental implants are replacement tooth roots, there are many advantages to having dental implants – your implants will look natural and feel like your own teeth, they can help to improve your speech, whereas dentures can occasionally slip when you are talking causing you to slur as well as causing embarrassment. Because implants are permanent they feel comfortable – dentures can sometime cause discomfort if they are not fitted correctly, you will find you are able to eat & chew better than before, dental implants function like your own teeth allowing you to chew with ease.
Along with all this, your teeth will look attractive you will be able to smile with confidence, not having to feel self conscious because of your teeth. This is the positive effect of implants and can help to boost your confidence.
Dental implants have a very high success rate and if looked after, there is no reason why they shouldn't last your lifetime.
Dental implants are fixed in place and provide a solution as close to natural teeth as possible. With dental implants you brush your teeth normally and you should maintain regular dental appointments as you would with your natural teeth. By replacing the entire tooth, including the root it is possible to replicate the function of your natural teeth, with a strong stable foundation that allows for comfortable biting & chewing.
Replacement of a lost tooth is vital to maintaining the overall function & health of your surrounding teeth. It is necessary to avoid the loss of bone from the jaw. Dental implants are an effective means to counteracting these problems.
Implants are also very strong and provide a feel as close to natural teeth as can currently be achieved.
It is also very important to replace lost teeth as absent teeth can misplace your jaw, you 'bite' will be out of sync and could cause droopiness or sagging of the chin area, as well as looking unsightly & making you look aged.
Dental implants are performed under local anaesthetic and you may require more than one session at the dentist, depending on the extent of work required. You may experience some swelling after, this usually disappears within 10 days. It is very important during recovery to practice scrupulous oral hygiene.
After surgery you will be left with a perfect smile, leaving you feeling rejuvenated, your teeth will look natural and healthy.
After tooth loss the bone is no longer stimulated and begins to shrink away, implants keep the bone intact and can prevent bone loss and gum tissue shrinkage.
As we age, so do our teeth, they become worn down, chipped, cracked & decayed as well as discolouration and eventually they are lost due to this, physical injury or prolonged tooth decay & deterioration.
With teeth missing this adds to us looking more aged than we actually are. Previously we used dentures to fill in missing teeth, but with new & advanced technology tooth implants have brought us forward in creating the closest thing to natural teeth.
Many people cannot get along with dentures and struggle on a day to day basis with them, they can slip and effect speech, you may find you change your eating habits to accommodate them, and sometimes dentures can clearly look false – although other people find dentures perfect for their needs. If you are struggling with dentures or have missing teeth dental implants are the answer & will give you perfect teeth.
