What are dental implants?

Dental implants in Herefordshire are essentially a form of restorative dentistry that aims to stabilise the surrounding teeth within the mouth. Dental implants consist of three key aspects, and aim to mimic the natural tooth. The small titanium screw acts as a base and aims to replace the natural root of the tooth, the connector (which is also commonly referred to as the abutment) links both the replica root, and the porcelain crown. The porcelain crown is matched exactly to the patient’s shape, and shade of natural teeth, and therefore blends in perfectly within the mouth.

 Are dental implants in Herefordshire right for me?

If you have lost one or even several teeth within the mouth, then dental implants may be right for you. Patients may have lost teeth through incidents such as a road accident or possibly even through health concerns, such as gum disease (which can occur as a result of bacteria build up within the mouth). Dental implants are not only suitable to compensate for the loss of one or two teeth, but can be used to support whole rows of teeth.

Why is it important to replace a missing tooth?

Having dental implants in Herefordshire is not only important aesthetically, but also for health reasons. Having a gap within the mouth can cause a build-up of bacteria, which can lead to the development of oral infections. Despite oral infections, a missing tooth can also cause difficulty and discomfort when completing daily dental tasks such as a daily hygiene routine, as well as chewing and drinking, especially with extreme temperatures. In addition to discomfort caused by missing teeth, speech problems can also occur, leading to a possible decline in self-esteem, and a possible hindering of career prospects.

What are the life benefits of receiving dental implants?

Receiving this form of restorative dentistry can ensure stabilisation within the mouth, due to the fact that dental implants are moulded to the bone. In terms of their durability, with the correct aftercare, dental implants can last a long time! In terms of their comparison to dentures, they are a long-term alternative, and can eliminate the risk of exposed nerves and gum tissue.
