Dental Implants - Camden Place Dental Practice UK
Dental implants replace the tooth root and provides a stable foundation for a replacement crown.
The bone forms a biological bond with the new dental implants giving your new crown the same stable foundation as a natural tooth.
State-of-the-art implant technology makes it possible to provide replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth.
The Benefits:
Dental implants preserve facial structure by virtually stopping the deterioration of the jaw.
Dental implants restore the mouth as closely as possible to its natural state.
Dental implants increase comfort by eliminating loose fitting dentures and partials.
Dental implants make a more natural smile.
Dental implants improve appearance and self confidence
A gentle surgical procedure is used to replace the root with the implant. The implant is left for 3 months to allow the bone to form an ultra strong bond to the implant. Finally, an artificial tooth is custom made to ensure that the implant is the ideal colour, shape and size.
A dental implant supported crown provides several advantages when it comes to replacing a missing tooth. Dental implants look, feel and function like a natural tooth and can be cleaned just like a natural tooth. Dental implants do not involve cutting down adjacent teeth and the preservation of bone provide better long term aesthetics. Inferior tooth supported bridges can suffer from decay if the cement washes out, an implant overcomes this problem thanks to the natural bone growth which embeds around the dental implants.
If you have a missing tooth or teeth, dental implants may be recommended instead of having the conventional crown and bridgework or dentures.

After the initial consultation, a comprehensive examination of the mouth and jaw is required to plan the most suitable treatment.
Under normal circumstances the implant procedure takes several appointments over 2 - 3 months. If none grafting is necessary the treatment may take approximately 6 months.
