Why get dental implants?
Anyone who is missing a tooth can benefit from a dental implant. Unlike a dental bridge, which uses neighbouring natural teeth for support, dental implants are anchored using an implant that is placed directly into your jawbone. As a result of this, dental implants are exceedingly robust and durable whilst remaining natural-looking.
There are also various other benefits to getting dental implants:
- When done by a professional, experienced dentist like the Aurora Dental team, dental implants look and feel like natural teeth in your mouth.
- They help to preserve your bone structure and facial features that can be affected by missing teeth to restore your natural smile and prevent premature ageing of the face.
- Dental implants are fixed in place and there is no risk of them falling out or coming loose, meaning you can smile and eat a varied diet without the worry of this causing any damage or discomfort.
- Dental implants can last for an entire lifetime if they are cared for properly, meaning they are always worth the investment.
How are dental implants fitted?
Prior to carrying out any treatment, your dentist will need to check whether or not you will be suitable for a dental implant. They will perform an assessment to confirm if you have a sufficient jawbone to support one. If your jawbone is too soft or not thick enough, it won’t be able to support an implant. There are some other health issues that might rule you out, but on the whole, there are few reasons as to why dental implants might not be right for you.
If you are deemed suitable for further treatment, you’ll undergo a procedure similar to that which unfolds during the application of implant retained dentures. This will allow your dentist to secure the implant to your jawbone.
Once your implant is healed, and your bone has fully fused around it, you will be ready to attend your final appointment at our dental implant clinic. The healing process usually takes 3-6 months. When you’re ready, a crown will be fitted and you’ll be able to smile with confidence again.
Does it hurt to have a dental implant?
For your comfort, the implant will be fitted under local anaesthetic. You may experience some mild discomfort whilst the implant heals and the bone fuses around it, but this should be minimal and can be eased with over-the-counter medicine. Some people even claim that extractions are more painful than implants, so if you’ve had an extraction before, you might not have much to worry about.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution to tooth loss. As long as you practise good dental hygiene and take care of your teeth, a dental implant may last for decades.
