Our teeth play an essential role within our lives. Their function not only being aesthetically pleasing, but they are also highly important in relation to digestion.
The loss of a tooth or the inability for our teeth to perform their natural functions can severely affect our eating patterns, self-confidence and appearance. Dental implants enable you to recover the natural function of your teeth as well as your beautiful smile.
Dental Implants are generally made from Titanium and take on the role of an anchor within the mouth. They are surgically inserted into the jawbone to support replacement teeth or dentures. After a period of time the jawbone will attach itself to the Implant. Small posts can then be fixed to the implants and the dentures or replacement teeth firmly fastened into place. This attachment then provides amazing stability for the patient; increasing with biting pressure and self confidence whilst reducing irritation and oral sores within the mouth.
After Dental Implant treatment precise post-surgical instructions are provided to the patient. This ensures healing occurs quickly and effectively. Good oral hygiene habits such as brushing, flossing and routine checkups have proven to maintain Dental Implant systems for up to twenty years.
