Why should I get dental implants?

Dental implants are considered a popular and effective solution for tooth replacement because they offer several advantages over other options, such as dentures or bridges. Here are some of the reasons why dental implants may be the best choice for you:

  1. Durability: Dental implants are designed to last many years, with proper care, making them a long-term investment in your oral health.

  2. Stability: Unlike dentures, dental implants are anchored in the jawbone, providing a stable base for your replacement teeth that won't slip or move around when you eat, speak, or laugh.

  3. Comfort: Dental implants feel and function like natural teeth, which means you won't have to deal with the discomfort or inconvenience that can come with other tooth replacement options.

  4. Improved oral health: Dental implants don't require the grinding down of adjacent teeth, as is necessary with dental bridges, which can help preserve the health of your remaining teeth.

  5. Improved appearance: Dental implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth, which can help improve your confidence and self-esteem.

  6. Improved eating: With dental implants, you can eat the foods you love without worrying about discomfort or difficulty chewing.

  7. Convenience: Dental implants are a low-maintenance option that doesn't require any special care beyond regular brushing and flossing.

Please note that not every person will be suitable for a dental implant and whether any implant treatment goes ahead or not is at the sole discretion of Dr. Vulliamy. That is why that initial consultation & assessment is so important!

Dental Implant FAQs:

  • Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically implanted in the jawbone. They are made of titanium, a biocompatible material that is safe for the body. Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth or to secure dentures in place.

  • Dental implants are anchored in the jawbone and are used to support a dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. The implant is surgically placed in the jawbone, and over time, it fuses with the bone. This creates a sturdy foundation for the dental restoration.

  • Most people who are missing one or more teeth are candidates for dental implants. However, it is important to have good oral health and enough bone density to support the implant. Your implant dentist will perform a comprehensive evaluation to determine if dental implants are right & safe for you.

  • The benefits of dental implants include: - restored appearance, restored eating function, improved oral health, improved quality of life, increased self-confidence & increased self-esteem by replacing gaps in your teeth with a totally natural looking implant tooth.

  • The cost of dental implants varies depending on the type of implant, the materials used & the complexity of the treatment. However, on average, dental implants cost between £3,000 and £5,000, as a guide price.

  • Dental implants are permanent. Once they are fused with the jawbone, they provide a sturdy foundation for dental restorations.
