Custom-made replacement teeth
The loss of your teeth can be a big change in your life. Having gaps in your smile can make you reluctant to show your teeth in photographs or when laughing out loud. The teeth that remain will have to work harder to process food, which isn’t great for your dental health in Herefordshire. Dental implants from Warrendale Dental Care are long-lasting, fully functional replacement teeth.
These customised and highly stable new teeth remain in your mouth for as long as you look after them; in many cases, this means decades. There’s no need to mess around with adhesives or clips, and you care for them in the same way as natural teeth.
Integral arrangement
Your treatment will begin with a conversation at our dental practice. We’ll make sure your jawbone is robust enough, and that your mouth is generally healthy enough, to receive Herefordshire dental implants. We’ll take some 3D images of your teeth, too. One or two preparatory treatments might be required before we get to the next step.
The implants are then placed into your jawbone during a minor surgery. They are small metal posts, a bit like tiny screws. Following a healing period, you’ll then have your custom-made new teeth attached to the implanted posts.
A range of improvements
Dental implants in Herefordshire will improve your dental health in many ways. These include:
- a regained ability to bite into and chew your favourite food, which is down to your jawbone forming a secure mesh with the implanted posts, so the new teeth are very stable;
- a low-hassle experience as there is no need to remove the new teeth for cleaning;
- improved dental aesthetics as the new teeth are designed to look natural;
- facial bone structure that is protected from the deteriorating effects of tooth loss as the implants help protect the jawbone, so avoiding the sunken-cheeked look common in people with untreated tooth loss or long-term denture wearers;
- better pronunciation of words and phrases you might have found tricky with gaps in your teeth.
All these features can add up to a huge improvement in your overall day-to-day experience of life. Having dental implants in Herefordshire can be transformative on many levels.
