Dental implants afford your dentist a permanent way to replace your missing teeth. In fact, implants are the only permanent tooth replacement solution, and the only way to replace the root portions of lost teeth. At Dublin18 Dental Care in Dublin, our team of implantologists can restore your smile and full functionality to your jaw with the aid of implants.
Adult teeth are supposed to last us a lifetime, but at our Dublin dental Room we see many patients who have lost one or more teeth for a whole host of reasons. As the general population lives longer, people are unfortunately outliving their natural teeth. Younger people also lose teeth through untreated gum disease or tooth decay, accident and injury, and phobia of the dentist.
Whatever the reason for having missing teeth, we urge you to contact our Dublin Room as soon as possible so that we can find the perfect way to replace them. Any dentist will tell you the importance of replacing your lost teeth, sooner rather than later. As well as making many people self-conscious about smiling and laughing in public, gaps in the mouth can cause oral health problems. Remaining teeth may tip as they move into any gaps, making them more difficult to clean, and additional strain will also be put on those teeth when you bite and chew food.
Dental implants are often the perfect tooth replacement product. They are titanium tooth roots, put into your jaw in a small surgical procedure carried out here at our Dublin clinic by an experienced implant surgeon.
After a healing period, which is typically a couple of months, your dentist will attach permanent new teeth to the abutments on top of your implants. These may be crowns, an implant-retained bridge, or implant-secured dentures. Get in touch with our Dublin clinic today to find out how dental implants could change your life for the better.
