Making the choice to recreate your smile
When a tooth is lost, whether a single tooth or multiple teeth, the impact on a smile can be considerable, which is why finding solutions to restore a smile are highly sought after. Dental implants are just one of the more popular tooth replacement options and with advanced dental implant technology Marylebone, restoring your smile has never been easier.
How does the process work?
Whilst diving into the benefits of the procedure can be exciting, it is important to first understand the process from start to finish. Attending a consultation is one of the necessary processes to undergo before beginning any treatment or procedure. Whilst we would all love to decide on a plan and dive straight in, there are many boxes to tick in order to be successful with this particular procedure.
During the consultation an overall check of the mouth, teeth and gums will be taken both physically and through digital scans, photographs and potentially X-rays. This detailed process helps to ensure that dental implants are the correct choice of tooth replacement for your individual case. Even with the advanced dental implant technology Marylebone, it is important to understand that ‘one size fits all’ is not possible when it comes to dental treatment and therefore this consultation is of great importance.
Once the consultation has taken place and the decision to have implants has been confirmed, the next step is to have the implant inserted. Starting with a numbing to the area, a small incision is made within the gum and the implant post inserted into the jawbone. The gum is then sewn back up and left to heal for several weeks allowing the body to work with the titanium post and create a strong, stable root for the new or replenished tooth. Once the area has healed significantly, which will be checked upon by your dental team, the new tooth will be attached to the implant and the smile restored.
Simple but effective
With our knowledgeable dental team and the advanced dental implant technology Marylebone available, this simple but highly effective smile restoration method has never been easier. We understand that there is a need to work around your daily life and therefore in between the few appointments needed for the process we help offer temporary solutions to keep your smile shining brightly. Temporary crowns can therefore be used before the more permanent tooth replacement is attached to the new post. Keeping your smile happy whilst keeping the process as simple as possible is important.
Maintenance
Once the area has healed and the permanent tooth has been attached the aftercare and day-to-day maintenance following on from the procedure does not differ from that of your regular teeth. Keeping the mouth, teeth and gums clean to a high standard continues to be of the utmost importance and therefore daily care combined with regular dental check-ups are essential to keep your smile on track.
Taking advantage of the advanced dental implant technology available for the procedure followed by teamwork from both yourself and your dental team is of great importance and something that we strongly encourage throughout. Work with us and we will work with you to ensure your smile remains radiant for life.
