Change your artificial teeth, change your life

Life can get pretty grim when bits of your body stop working properly. Not functioning at full par is not something that we ever really get used to, especially when it’s our teeth that can no longer do the job they were designed to.

Many people have to bear such a burden when one or more of their teeth fall out or are removed. The consequences of losing a tooth becomes increasingly serious as time passes by. In Herefordshire, dental implants are the choice of more and more people who have lost teeth because implants not only look like natural teeth, they do the best job of replacing their functionality too.

Dental Implants in HerefordshireHere at Warrendale Dental in Herefordshire, dental implants form a large percentage of our work. Our highly skilled implant surgeons have been placing implants for more than a decade and we have become the go-to practice for dental implants in Herefordshire.

Eat your favourite foods again

One of the saddest things about losing your teeth is discovering that you can no longer eat the crunchy, chewy foods that so many of us love. We cannot bite or chew with just our gums and many people find it’s pretty difficult even with prosthetic teeth on bridges, plates and dentures.

Getting to the root of it

The big difference between dental implants in Herefordshire and other forms of artificial teeth is that dental implants replace the root as well as the crown. The others only replace the crown.

The root is what gives our teeth the stability to bite and chew. Dental implants can withstand forces up to 200lbs or 90.7kgs of force. This is more than is required by an adult male for chewing.

Once your dental implants are integrated with your jawbone, you can pretty much treat them as you would your own natural teeth, looking after them with careful regular brushing and flossing. It is important to keep the gums around them healthy. The porcelain teeth themselves cannot decay. All in all, there is no replacement tooth option that more closely mimics the teeth that Nature gave you.
