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
Gaps in your teeth can lead to increased stresses on your other teeth and affect the way you bite and chew. A dental bridge is a permanent fixture comprising one or more false teeth and is used to fill the gap after the natural tooth has been lost through injury or extraction.
A dental bridge is a simple and effective way to get a fixed replacement for missing teeth.
Implant Retained Dentures
A number of Implants may be used to secure a lower denture. this process follows a number of steps:
First a hole is made in the jaw bone for each Implant, then the Implant is positioned and a Healing Cap applied. The gum is replaced while the bone recovers.
Access to the Implant is made and the second part of the Implant is attached. The bars are attached and tiny magnets in the denture then keep it securely in place.
