We have combined our expert knowledge built up through years of experience to offer you everything you need to know about dental implants. We will be explaining what they are, the different options available depending on whether you have lost one or multiple teeth, and what benefits they bring.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are to replace a missing tooth(teeth). They are a long-term solution and provide a more natural look. They replace the root within the gum which provides more stability for the replacement, than alternatives.
Implants are screwed in using a discreet titanium screw, replicating the root of a natural tooth. Artificial crowns (made from porcelain) that replicate the missing teeth are then fitted on the top of the screw. These porcelain crowns are an exact replica of the original tooth, to make sure that it blends in perfectly and unnoticeably.
When the implant is in place, the jawbone will fuse with the titanium screw, securing the crown. This process is not an instant reaction and is a practice that can take between eight and twelve weeks.
Dental Implants for One Missing Tooth
The process for one missing tooth requires the input of a titanium screw within the jaw. We will schedule an appointment that suits the need of the patient. With one tooth and no underlying complications, we will achieve this with one surgery. We prefer to check on the procedure after two weeks to ensure the wound is healing correctly.
Dental Implants for Multiple Missing Teeth
Replacing multiple teeth with dental implants is somewhat different from a singular tooth. We provide Full Arch Dental Implants on 4 or 6 implants, the number of implants and method is unique to each individual, which is personalized to each person at the consultation visit. We provide Smile in a Day dental implant therapy, which involves surgery and fitting of your teeth over the implants on the same day, please note not everyone is suitable for this approach and thus pre-planning is crucial.
Once the implants are positioned, the porcelain crowns are created and connected to the implants by a centre crown that fits over the gums. Even though each individual crown isn’t fitted to an implant of its own, this fixed implant bridge is an incredibly secure, stable, and long term answer for replacing multiple missing teeth.
If there is a full denture replacement required for all teeth, this solution would be the ideal answer and would be most expected to be recommended.
