When patients look for a dentist, they may not have a system of checking if the practice they go to is going to serve all their needs. While it can be worth looking for a dentist that ticks the boxes today, it is also worth considering tomorrow and what you might need then. At Apple Dental Studio, we offer a range of treatments from general dentistry through to cosmetic dentistry, restorative and orthodontic treatments and we also provide facial aesthetic treatments. So, no matter what your needs now or later, we can help and you shouldn’t need to look any further. One of our popular treatments, which may not seem important right now if you have a full set of natural teeth, is dental implants. However, patients can lose their teeth due to medications, accidents and other issues such as smoking. It isn’t always just a case of poor oral hygiene. Having dental implants can be essential to getting your mouth looking and functioning much as it would with a full set of natural teeth.
are dental implants?
Dental implants are used to replace a single tooth or multiple teeth. They are metal screws that are attached firmly into the jawbone and to which replacement teeth in the form of crowns, bridges or dentures may be fixed. The result is replacement teeth that are made to look uniform and to complement any natural teeth that you still have. They also function just like natural teeth; no matter what you eat or how much you talk, your implants shouldn’t let you down!
Can anybody have dental implants?
This is a popular treatment for patients with missing teeth, however, your Dentist in Pinner here at Apple Dental Studio will be able to check that this is the right treatment for you during an initial consultation. You will be able to express your concerns during this appointment and you will be able to ask as many questions as you like about any of the treatments that are on offer for your individual needs. If it looks as though dental implants are an option, our dentists will take the time to examine your mouth thoroughly to ensure that there is enough bone density in your jawbone to attach the implants to. Don’t worry if there isn’t enough, however, as you may be eligible to have a bone graft first.
Would dental implants be the best option?
While everybody has different needs, implants generally tend to be a great option for many reasons. Aside from the aesthetics of implants, they are also a fantastic option because they function like your natural teeth by being attached to the jawbone. This means that you don’t have to remove them at night and you don’t have to change your diet to soft foods. They are also really easy to maintain; all you have to do is brush and floss regularly. You should also come and see us for your routine checkups because we love to see you (and it’s important that we keep an eye on your teeth!)
