What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are an advanced dental treatment available to those patients suffering from missing teeth. It is made up of a small, screw-like post made of titanium, which is placed into the patient’s jawbone. This creates a strong foundation on which a replacement tooth in the form of a dental crown, bridge or denture can be placed.

Situations where dental implants are suitable:

  • Closing gaps and spaces between teeth
  • Replacing one or more missing teeth
  • Restoring natural chewing strength and bite function
  • Improving smile aesthetics and overall oral health

Benefits of Dental Implants

Built To Smile

Dental implants are designed to look and feel just like natural teeth. Each implant supports a custom-made porcelain crown, carefully crafted to blend seamlessly with your smile.

Built With Bite

Because dental implants fuse securely with your jawbone, they stay firmly in place – even when you’re enjoying tougher foods like steak or apples. With implants, you can once again eat with comfort and confidence, enjoying every bite without worry.

Built To Last

Made from strong and durable titanium, dental implants are built to last. They won’t degrade over time, and with the right care, they can stay firmly in place for life – giving you lasting confidence in your smile.

Types of Dental Implants

Single Tooth Implant

implants

A single tooth implant is a dental solution designed to replace one missing tooth. Unlike other tooth replacement options such as dental bridges, a single tooth implant does not rely on surrounding teeth for support. Instead, it stands independently, protecting your jawbone and maintaining the integrity of your smile.

An implant-supported bridge is a restorative dental solution designed for patients with multiple missing teeth. Instead of relying on adjacent teeth, as with traditional bridges, dental implants are used as anchors for this kind of bridge. The bridge is supported by two or more implants placed in the jawbone, providing a secure foundation that mimics the function of natural tooth roots.

Implant Bridge

Restoring multiple missing teeth with dental implants is an advanced approach that provides stability and a natural feel. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, which rest on the gums or rely on nearby teeth for support, multiple implants are securely anchored into the jawbone, acting as artificial roots for a lasting solution.

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

Dental implants provide a lasting solution for replacing missing teeth.

The dental implant itself is made of titanium which fuses with the jawbone. This means dental implants are strong and durable. Provided they are carefully looked after, we would expect dental implants to last 20 to 30 years. In fact, it is quite common for patients to keep their implants for almost a lifetime.

The dental crown (i.e. the artificial white tooth) may need to be replaced after 10 years due to wear. This is often a straightforward dental procedure which can be performed by the implant dentist.

Are Dental Implants Painful?

A common concern for many patients is that having dental implant procedure can be a painful treatment. However, this is not necessarily the case with advancements in technology. As this procedure will be performed under local anaesthetic, patients should feel comfortable and relaxed while undergoing surgery.

At Pine Dental & Aesthetics we also offer sedation in Sutton which helps those patients which feel nervous visiting the dentist. 

After surgery, patients may feel slight discomfort however this can be managed through over-the-counter medication. Typically, the healing process takes a few months while the dental implant fuses with the jawbone however there should be minimal discomfort during this process.

How Do I Take Care of My Dental Implant?

  • Use a soft-bristled toothbrush, interdental brush or floss and fluoridated toothpaste to clean around your dental implant just like a natural tooth.
  • To avoid buildup of food particles and bacteria, rinse your mouth with mouthwash and use floss between your teeth.
  • Even with dental implants, it’s important to clean your gums, tongue, and any remaining natural teeth to prevent infections.
  • Your dentist will monitor your dental implants and the health of your gums, while the hygienist will professionally clean around the dental implant.

Dental implants are widely considered a better dental option for replacing missing teeth than dentures and dental bridges. Dentures sit on top of the gum and are prone to slipping off and being uncomfortable. Dental bridges require support from the adjacent teeth and may require preparation of a neighbouring tooth.

Advancements in technology means dental implants are one of the safest and most successful dental procedures available and as technology continues to develop dental implants will become even more reliable and safe. The material used for dental implants is biocompatible which means it fuses well with the jawbone.

A good candidate for dental implants is someone suffering from missing teeth or about to have a tooth extracted. However, before a decision can be made the implant dentist will do a full assessment to determine whether you are suitable for dental implants.
