Dental Implants
Are you missing teeth? Do you find it difficult to speak, chew food or smile with confidence? We have very quickly come from a time when the expectation was that virtually everyone would lose all or some of their teeth and the only option was to replace them with poorly fitting dentures. Fortunately, technology has progressed and you no longer need to suffer in silence with missing teeth and loose dentures.
Single dental implant
A single implant is needed to replace an individual missing tooth. The implant is placed in the jawbone, in the gap that your own tooth has left. We will then add the crown and that single implant will blend in perfectly and function well with the rest of your teeth.
Multiple dental implants
If you have lost several teeth there are typically two solutions: separate dental crowns attached to dental implants or a dental bridge attached to 2 or more dental implants.
If you have one or more teeth missing, then you may not need as many implants as you think. Not every missing tooth needs to have an implant beneath it. We can fit a bridge to a single implant on which two or more crowns are used to replace adjoining teeth.
