Dental Implants

Are you looking for a permanent solution to replace missing teeth? Dental implants at Larkham House Dental Practice are the answer you’ve been searching for. Dental implants offer a reliable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics to your smile.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or implant-retained dentures, all designed to match your natural teeth. Dental implants not only improve the appearance of your smile but also enhance your oral health by preventing bone loss and maintaining the structure of your jaw.

Benefits of Dental Implants

1. Natural Look and Feel: Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. This allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing that your teeth are secure and natural-looking.
2. Durability and Longevity: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. They are a more durable and reliable option compared to traditional dentures and bridges, which may need to be replaced or adjusted over time.
3. Improved Oral Health: Unlike traditional bridges, dental implants do not require the alteration of adjacent healthy teeth. This helps preserve the integrity of your natural teeth and promotes better long-term oral health.
4. Prevent Bone Loss: Dental implants help stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss that often occurs when teeth are missing. This maintains your facial structure and prevents the sunken appearance that can result from missing teeth.

The Procedure at Larkham House

At Larkham House Dental Practice, we make the dental implant process as smooth and comfortable as possible. Our experienced team carefully plans and executes each step to achieve optimal results.

1. Initial Consultation: Your journey to a new smile begins with an initial consultation. During this appointment, we will perform a comprehensive oral assessment, discuss your medical and dental history, and take any necessary OPG or CBCT scans. This helps us understand your unique needs and create a personalized treatment plan.
2. Treatment Planning: Based on the findings from your consultation, we will design a treatment plan tailored to your specific situation. We will discuss the type of dental implants that are best suited for you and outline the steps involved in the procedure.
3. Surgical Placement: The implant placement is a straightforward procedure performed under local anaesthesia to ensure minimal discomfort. The implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone, where it will integrate over time to provide a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.
4. Restoration: Once the implant has successfully integrated with the jawbone, a custom-made crown, bridge, or implant-retained denture is attached to the implant. This final step restores your smile, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of fully functional and natural-looking teeth.
