Dental Implants

Dental implants at the Camden Place Dental Practice

Dental implants replace the tooth root and provides a stable foundation for a replacement crown.

The bone forms a biological bond with the new dental implants giving your new crown the same stable foundation as a natural tooth.
State-of-the-art implant technology makes it possible to provide replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth.

A gentle surgical procedure is used to replace the root with the implant. The implant is left for 3 months to allow the bone to form an ultra strong bond to the implant. Finally, an artificial tooth is custom made to ensure that the implant is the ideal colour, shape and size.
  
                           
                                   
                   
     

A dental implant supported crown provides several advantages when it comes to replacing a missing tooth. Dental implants look, feel and function like a natural tooth and can be cleaned just like a natural tooth. Dental implants do not involve cutting down adjacent teeth and the preservation of bone provide better long term aesthetics. Inferior tooth supported bridges can suffer from decay if the cement washes out, an implant overcomes this problem thanks to the natural bone growth which embeds around the dental implants.

If you have a missing tooth or teeth, dental implants may be recommended instead of having the conventional crown and bridgework or dentures.

A dental implant supported crown provides several advantages when it comes to replacing a missing tooth. Dental Implants look, feel and function like a natural tooth and can be cleaned just like a natural tooth. Dental implants do not involve cutting down adjacent teeth and the preservation
of bone provide better long term aesthetics.

After the initial consultation, a comprehensive examination of the mouth and jaw is required to plan the most suitable treatment.

Under normal circumstances the implant procedure takes several appointments over 2 - 3 months. If none grafting is necessary the treatment
may take approximately 6 months.

The following are some examples of the implants work carried out a Camden Place.

 
     
1. Single replacement tooth.
2. Full mouth reconstruction involving multiple implants.
