Tooth replacement option<\/strong><\/p>\n
When you need to have teeth removed, it can be a daunting and scary prospect. Here at Warrendale Dental in Herefordshire<\/strong>, dental implants are a tooth replacement procedure that can be offered, under the right circumstances. You will need to have a full oral and overall health assessment to see if dental implants are suitable to your needs. There are certain lifestyle factors, such as smoking, that will need to be addressed before receiving dental implants in Herefordshire<\/a> and the procedure can only begin after all other dental work is completed. For example, if you need fillings in other teeth these will need to be done before any implant work is started.<\/p>\n
What are dental implants?<\/strong><\/p>\n
Dental implants in Herefordshire<\/strong> are small screws that are inserted into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. The screw is made out of titanium, a metal that is cohesive with bone. This screw acts like the root of a real tooth, which makes dental implants the only tooth restoration that replaces an entire tooth, from root to crown.<\/p>\n
What if I am a nervous patient?<\/strong><\/p>\n
During our initial consultation we can discuss with you what sedation you wish to use. We operate using a local anaesthetic. \u00a0To reassure you, receiving dental implants in Herefordshire<\/strong> requires only minor dental surgery. It is less painful than people imagine, as there are fewer nerve endings in the jaw than in the teeth.\u00a0 However, been numb and being relaxed are two different things. We a also give you either oral or intravenous sedation if necessary. We want to make you comfortable, so do not be afraid to ask.
