Let's Answer Some of Your Questions.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants have the potential to last a lifetime if they are properly looked after. This includes maintaining an excellent brushing and flossing routine, looking after your general health, and attending regular check-up appointments with your dentist. The crown or bridge that the implant supports may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear and tear.
Are dental implants painful?
Dental implant treatment is usually carried out using local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some tenderness or swelling can happen afterwards, but this is normally manageable and settles as the area heals
Am I suitable for dental implants?
Many people with missing teeth are suitable for dental implants, but this depends on your oral health, gum health and the amount of jawbone available. A consultation is needed to assess your mouth and explain your options.
Can dental implants replace dentures?
Yes, dental implants can sometimes be used as an alternative to removable dentures. They can replace single teeth, several teeth or support a full arch of teeth, depending on your needs and suitability.
Types Of Dental Implants Available
Single Dental Implant
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth with a secure, natural-looking crown, helping restore your smile without affecting the surrounding teeth.
Multiple Dental Implants
Multiple dental implants can replace several missing teeth using crowns or a bridge, creating a strong, fixed alternative to removable dentures.
Implant-Retained Dentures
Implant-retained dentures are secured using dental implants, helping reduce movement and improve comfort when eating, speaking and smiling.
Full Arch Dental Implants
Full arch dental implants replace a full set of upper or lower teeth with a fixed bridge, helping restore everyday function and confidence.
Dental Implants vs Dentures
Both dental implants and dentures can be effective ways to replace missing teeth. The best option depends on your oral health, lifestyle, budget and personal preferences.
