Why Choose Dental Implants?
If you are faced with the prospect of tooth loss then you'll need to discuss options for their replacement with your dentist in Bracknell. This is extremely important as replacing lost teeth in some form or other helps to prevent the rest of your remaining teeth from moving out of position, and also ensures your facial features retain the correct dimensions as your teeth are responsible for supporting your lips and cheeks. During your discussion with your dentist it's quite possible they might recommend dental implants, but what makes this form of tooth replacement so good, and is it worth the extra cost?
CrownWood Dental Practice can put forward several arguments for choosing dental implants as they are the most permanent ways of replacing lost teeth, offering benefits to oral health as well as helping to boost self-esteem and self-confidence. The benefits to oral health are pretty remarkable and are one of the top reasons for considering this method of tooth replacement.
Simply put, dental implants help to preserve your jawbone which would otherwise be gradually reabsorbed, something that can create quite a few problems. The reason they are able to do this is because the dental implant post is designed to closely replicate a natural tooth root. Once it is inserted into the jaw then it supplies a similar level of stimulation to the surrounding bone as a natural tooth root, helping to prompt the bone to renew old bone cells.
If you choose an alternative method of tooth replacement then your jawbone will not have this stimulation and as a result will gradually become flatter. This can make it awkward for other types of restorations such as dentures and the replacement teeth on bridges that are designed to rest on the gums. You might find unsightly gaps appearing underneath these replacement teeth on dental bridges, and dentures are likely to become increasingly badly fitting.
Some people are concerned that dental implants are costly, but in fact treatment is probably more affordable than you imagined. It's true that it will be more expensive than choosing dentures or bridges, but it is a longer term investment in your oral health. Dental implants in Bracknell use the very latest technology to provide the very best results. It does require a small procedure to insert the post into the jawbone, but this is much less of an ordeal then people usually imagine. If you intend to have quite a few dental implants then we can offer you extra sedation to help keep you more comfortable during the procedure. If you intend to have just one dental implant then it's something that can often be carried out under just a local anaesthetic, and you should be able to return to normal everyday activities the following day.
