Why you will love your dental implants
When people start to lose their teeth, the search is on to find the best way to replace them. If you are at this point, maybe your teeth are giving way after years of loyal service, or maybe you lost one or two in a sporting accident. Whatever has happened to cause you to lose your teeth, it’s now time to think about the future and what you want from your replacement teeth.
Do you want them to look like real teeth? Of course you do. In that case, the best artificial crowns are hand-made from dental porcelain. They can be colour-matched to your remaining teeth, and sized and shaped to fit in with them seamlessly too.
Do you want to be able to eat whatever you like? We’re willing to bet that’s a yes.
Would you like them to remain in one place and last for years and years, possibly your whole lifetime? Can’t imagine that’s not a yes too.
Sounds like you need dental implants. In Herefordshire, here at Warrendale Dental, we are finding that more and more of our patients are opting for dental implants when they need to replace their teeth.
Herefordshire dental implants are not actually the crown (white chewing bit) of the tooth, but an artificial root that we insert into specially drilled sockets in your jawbone. They are made of titanium, a metal that is light, strong, non-corrosive and bonds with your bone tissue so that the implants will be held in place as securely as your natural teeth.
One dental implant can support up to three crowns on a bridge, and we have a great technique to put an entire arch of teeth onto only four implants, put in at carefully chosen angles to support the teeth along the whole length of the jawbone.
Super-sturdy dental implants in Herefordshire can withstand chewing forces of around 97kg or 200lbs, and can last for decades, if you are diligent about keeping your mouth free from gum disease.
No one will ever know you have implants unless you tell them, no embarrassing wobbles or slips will give the game away.
