Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth and can also be used to stabilise bridges and dentures.
The many advantages of dental implants are:
Improve your confidence – If you are ever worried that your denture will move or slip, then the fixed security and life-like appearance of dental implants will help.
Love your smile again – Dental implants are as close as it is possible to get to a natural tooth, both in function and in appearance.
Enjoy your favourite foods – Because dental implants are fixed you can eat what you like, and because there is no palate you can taste things again, and appreciate hot foods, or that cold beer!
Natural, life-like appearance – Dental implants offer a beautiful natural appearance and can match your other existing natural teeth or can be used to improve your appearance and smile.
Better for your oral health – Unlike bridges, dental implants do not damage adjacent natural teeth; and unlike dentures they do not encourage food and plaque build-up between supporting teeth.
Long lasting solution – Provided they are carefully cleaned and looked after, dental implants will usually last longer than crowns, bridges or dentures. If you maintain them well and your mouth stays healthy, then they will last years and probably for your life time.
Preserve healthy bone – When your natural tooth is removed, the bone within the jaw that supported it dissolves away. Placing a dental implant to replace the tooth helps to conserve that bone and avoids the appearance of a shrunken jaw.
No more taking your teeth out at night – Because dental implants provide a fixed tooth replacement, there is no need to remove them at night time.
Substitute for a natural tooth root – Made from titanium, dental implants can be used to replace individual teeth, larger gaps or even all the teeth in a jaw. They are also used to stabilise a removable denture.
