At Linwood Dental Care, we make every effort to save and look after your teeth. Sadly, there are situations where tooth removal is necessary, and in these cases Dental Implants provide the most realistic replacement that we have for the natural tooth. Dental implants can be used to replace single teeth, multiple teeth, or even a full arch of teeth.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants offer a natural way to replace missing teeth. A dental implant is a titanium ‘root’ that is placed into the jaw bone, to which a dental implant crown can be attached, giving the look and feel of a natural tooth.
Why get Dental Implants?
Dental implants are just one option to replace missing teeth; dental bridges or dentures are the alternatives.
However, both of these alternative options carry significant disadvantages. Unlike bridges, dental implants do not rely on your adjacent teeth for support, and so leave your remaining teeth free from potential damage.
Unlike dentures, dental implants are fixed in position and do not move around, allowing you to eat, smile and laugh worry-free.
