Dental implants are a very popular way to replace missing teeth. Here at Warrendale Dental Care in Herefordshire<\/strong>, our experienced implant dentists have helped many patients to restore both their confidence in their smile and their ability to eat a full, healthy diet with the aid of implants.<\/p>\n

How treatment works<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"dental-implants\"Dental implants are artificial replacements for the root portion of a missing tooth or teeth. Made from titanium \u2013 which was chosen because it is highly compatible with the body and is osteoconductive, which means it supports bone growth \u2013 the implants are placed directly in your jaw bone in a minor operation, which is carried out by an implant dentist here at are Herefordshire practice.<\/p>\n

Once your implants are in position, they bond with your jaw bone over a period of approximately three months. After this, they provide extremely strong support for replacement teeth in the form of bridges, dentures, or crowns.<\/p>\n

The numerous advantages of dental implants<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many advantages of dental implants<\/a> when compared with other tooth replacement options. The first, and perhaps most important, is that implants are designed to be permanent. With good oral hygiene and regular visits to our Herefordshire practice for maintenance and follow-up appointments with both the dentist and the hygienist, they will last many years \u2013 perhaps even a lifetime.<\/p>\n

Dental implants have a very high success rate \u2013 up to 98 per cent. They also help to prevent bone loss, which is a common side effect reported by patients who have several or all of their natural teeth, and happens because the bone will resorb without the tooth roots in place. Because dental implants are artificial tooth roots and because they are osteoconductive, they help to eliminate this problem.<\/p>\n

Whatever restorations you have attached to your implants, you can rest assured that they won\u2019t fall out and will remain firmly in position.
