The turn of the century has seen a huge revolution in dentistry. We can now permanently replace a missing tooth with an implant. It is just like a real tooth!
The technology dates back many decades, but, it has been refined and simplified to such an extent that in the last 4 years it has become mainstream and very commonplace.
Implants have a high success rate and can be used to replace a single tooth, a few teeth or as an alternative to a full set of dentures.
An implant is a small metal screw that is placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. A suitable new tooth solution is then secured to the implant, usually a porcelain crown (or bridge if several teeth are missing) providing you with a natural looking replacement.
If you are a suitable candidate then Implant treatment follows a few stages over 3 to 6 months. In more complicated cases, the process can take up to 12 months to integrate a successful treatment plan.
Implants are a permanent solution to tooth loss and can truly change your life.
