In the past, your best option in this situation would be to get a denture or bridge, but at Airport Dental you can benefit from multiple implants- a treatment that looks, feels and acts almost exactly like your remaining natural teeth
The procedure for multiple implants is exactly the same as it is for a single implant, only it’s performed in two or more areas.
We place titanium screws in the selected areas, allow them to heal and then create and place your new permanent bridge.
When the implants are complete, your new teeth will look, act and feel almost exactly like your other teeth- in fact, it’s the closest alternative to natural teeth available.
The results can be nothing short of amazing.
Multiple implants, unlike bridges and dentures, are self-supporting which mean your surrounding teeth are not used as anchors or otherwise affected. They work just like single implants except that two or more anchors are put in place- one for each missing tooth.
Implants are also more comfortable, won’t affect the way you eat or speak and don’t need to be removed for cleaning.
When we place the titanium screw, we use a local anaesthetic so you won’t feel any pain apart from some minor discomfort for a few days after. This discomfort is normally caused by the healing of the stitches and will normally go away on its own in just a few days.
Implants are very safe and can last several years when cared for properly and regularly. Dental implants are one of the most successful tooth replacement treatments available and if you look after them, it will make a real difference to their longevity.
If you have any concerns about whether implants are right for you, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our Airport Dental implant professionals. They will discuss your medical history and any other relevant information before performing a full examination to determine if an implant treatment is right for you.
