Missing teeth can be embarrassing, uncomfortable and can affect your general health and mental wellbeing. They can stop you from eating as you used to, they can impede your speech and they mar the appearance of your smile, which can have a negative impact on your self-confidence and prevent you from smiling as freely as you would like to. You need to speak to your dentist and find out about replacing your missing teeth sooner rather than later. Dental implants Gordon are a permanent solution for tooth replacement. They are small titanium screws that replace the roots of missing teeth so that you can have a fixed prosthetic of your choice. You can either have an individual crown, or a set of dentures depending on the number of teeth that need replacing.
A fixed and permanent solution
Dental implants can be used for one missing tooth, multiple teeth or even all of your teeth. If you find that you are struggling with your dentures and looking for a solution that fits more comfortably and conveniently then oral implants are a wonderful way to improve your quality of life. Some people are tired of taking their dentures out of their mouth and replacing them, or worried that they may suddenly fall out and would like to rehabilitate their smile with a fixed solution, in this way dental implants are an excellent solution for them.
Extensive research and development has been carried out in the field of dental implantation and your dentist will carry out a thorough examination of your teeth and gums. You will undergo three-dimensional scans of your mouth to help put together an individually tailored treatment plan. Digital technology means that your dentist can see the quantity and the quality of jawbone that is available for your implant. It tells them the size of implant necessary for you, the way it needs to be positioned and the scan results are sent to the lab for a prefabricated surgical guide so that your dentist can carry out the surgery with accuracy and precision. Thanks to advances in dental technology your dentist can achieve the best results possible for replacing your missing teeth.
Osseointegration
Dental implants are made from titanium, a strong and non-corrosive metal, used in aeroplanes and rockets. Dental implants work using a natural bodily process known as osseointegration. This is when osteoblasts, or bone forming cells, grow around the implant so that it becomes embedded firmly and securely into the jaw. This process takes a few months and once the healing period is complete you can have a prosthetic of your choice to replace your missing tooth. A dental implant is a highly efficient method of replacing your missing teeth and it can help restore the appearance of your smile and the function of your mouth, which can be significantly affected by tooth loss. Do not let tooth loss affect you or your dental health. Speak to your dentist as soon as possible and find out about replacing your missing teeth with dental implants to improve your quality of life.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
