All this probably means is that you\u2019ll need some preparatory work to get your jawbone ready for implants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We\u2019ll build you back up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tooth loss can quite quickly result in a degenerated jawbone. Within the first year after tooth loss your jawbone can deteriorate by up to 25%. When you come in for an implant consultation, we\u2019ll take x-rays to check the state of your jawbone. If it has already lost a significant amount of density, then you will probably need treatment to build it back up. If you are looking to get dental implants in Herefordshire to replace teeth in your upper jaw, this treatment will involve a sinus lift. If you need dental implants for your lower jaw, then you may need a bone graft.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taking a long view<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A sinus lift isn\u2019t the only way to ensure you can have missing teeth in your upper jaw replaced with dental implants. We also offer zygomatic implants. These are a special kind of <strong>dental implants in Herefordshire<\/strong> which are much longer than the traditional kind. Instead of being anchored into the jawbone, they get their support from being rooted within the cheekbone, also known as the zygomatic bone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can you do?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are a few other reasons you may have been told no for <strong>dental implants in Herefordshire<\/strong>; smoking and uncontrolled diabetes. Both can make healing after your implant surgery more difficult. So, if you want to turn that no into a yes, you\u2019ll need to quit smoking and get your diabetes under control. Then you can take the first steps towards restoring your dental health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you experienced tooth loss some years ago and went to the dentist in Herefordshire, dental implants may not have been an option for you.
