Dental implants for tooth replacement

Over the last few decades dental implants Nottingham have become the most popular choice of tooth replacement therapy. Dentists across the world are specialising in dental implant surgery as it continues to grow in popularity and has now become the gold standard in replacing missing teeth. The success of dental implants Nottingham is mainly due to the fact that they provide a permanent solution for replacing your missing teeth. Once you have a dental implant, it will remain in your mouth for the rest of your life and if necessary you will be able to replace the crown, bridge or dentures that you choose to place on top of it if they become damaged at any time.

Dental implants Nottingham are suitable for all ages, but you will need to have an examination of your teeth and gums to make sure that any underlying dental issues are addressed prior to implant surgery. Our dentist also needs to make sure that you have sufficient healthy bone for the implant to be inserted into your jaw. Bone decay can be a common issue in patients with tooth loss, so again we would like to emphasise the importance of visiting the dentist sooner rather than later so that you have better chances of successful treatment.

There are some patients who may not be able to have dental implants due to underlying illnesses such as diabetes, immunological diseases, clotting disorders and other similar issues, but our dentist will take a full medical history at the initial appointment to help make this decision.

If our dentist is happy that dental implants are suitable for you then you can begin your journey to replacing your missing teeth very soon. The process itself can take several months before your teeth are permanently replaced, however, once complete you will achieve a smile that is aesthetically pleasing, fully functioning and helps promote better oral health for life.
