Dental implants provide your dentist with a modern, permanent method of replacing your missing teeth. At Victoria Road Dental Clinic in Ruislip, we can use implants to replace one, some, or even all of your natural teeth.
If you are interested in finding out more about whether this treatment is right for you, please come and join us for a free, no-obligation dental implants consultation at our Ruislip practice. You will need to have a full examination with a dentist before your implants are placed.
Why you should replace missing teeth
Ask any dentist and they will tell you that you should replace missing teeth, ideally as quickly as possible after you’ve lost them. There are several reasons for this. The first and most obvious is the aesthetic concern of having a gap in your smile line. Particularly if you have lost one or more teeth near to the front of your mouth, you may find that you become too self-conscious to smile in public.
There are other reasons to replace your missing teeth, though. Failing to do so will have a detrimental impact on your dental and general health.
When even one tooth is lost, there is instantly additional strain put on any remaining teeth when you bite and chew food. Depending on the number of teeth lost and their location, you may find biting and chewing increasingly difficult, which can impact upon your ability to eat a healthy diet.
Dental implants are the best option in many cases for replacing teeth because they replace the tooth roots, holding either a crown, denture, or bridge securely in place and enabling you to eat whatever you choose. They also help to prevent your jaw bone from receding.
At our Ruislip dental practice, your dentist can offer a number of dental implant solutions. In some cases you can have your new teeth right away, whilst in other cases it is best to leave your dental implants to heal and mesh with your bone for a few months.
