dental-implants-londonSince their introduction over 50 years ago, dental implants have proved to be the answer to many people’s prayers as a way to restore missing teeth. For dentists, they have provided a strong and stable solution to tooth loss. For people who have lost teeth, they can change their lives for the better in a matter of days, or even hours. As with any technology, new improvements to materials, and developments in techniques are being made all the time. This is true of dental implants and companies have now developed a wide range of implants which can now be used in new and different ways than before.

In the past, after dental implants were placed, it was necessary to allow everything to heal and become fully integrated before it was possible to fit the crown or other dental prosthetic. In some cases, it would often take up to six months to complete a patient’s implants. Now it is possible to remove all of your teeth, place the implants, and fit your dentures in a single day.

Enjoy the benefits of same day teeth

When you visit Moor Park Dental in London, dental implants which will hold your dentures in place can be fitted at the same time as your teeth are removed and a set of dentures will also be fixed in place at the same time. When you walk out of our dental practice in London, dental implants and dentures all in place, you can smile confidently, knowing that now your dentures will stay firmly and securely in place. This procedure is called same day teeth and offers you, the patient, the benefit of maintaining both the aesthetic and functional aspects of your new teeth from the start.

Other important bonuses of having the whole treatment carried out in just one day is that overall the costs are reduced, and the discomfort that you may experience is minimised.  You will be pleased to discover that you do not have to keep returning for multiple appointments, sometimes over a period of several months before your treatment is completed.

Principal Dentist Joe Bhat regularly manages complex clinical restorative problems and places and restores Dental Implants.

Replacement teeth with a great future

Joe Bhat is our principal dentist at Moor Park Specialist Dental Centre and is a specialist in both Oral Surgery and Prosthodontics.

dental-implants-londonIt is said that nothing lasts forever, and while that may be true, a dental implant will probably last a lifetime if properly cared for. Since their invention in the late 1950s, dental implants have changed the face of modern dentistry, as well as the faces and smiles of many hundreds of thousands of patients. At Moor Park Dental in London, dental implants are being used to resolve many different oral health issues related to tooth loss that affect our patients.

At our practice in London, dental implants are continuing to help many of our patients enjoy the simple things in life once more; simple things such as biting into a delicious crusty baguette or a crisp apple. Over the past 50 years, dental implants have gradually become the gold-standard for tooth replacement due to their many benefits. The most critical of these is that they feel and look just like your own natural teeth. In fact once they are fully healed and integrated, you may just forget that they are not your own teeth.

Getting down to the root of the problem

When a tooth is lost, the root is removed from the jaw, this results in the loss of bone in the jaw. If the tooth is not replaced, other teeth opposite and adjacent to the gap may start to move out of their correct position resulting in further tooth losses and eventually you will find yourself needing dentures. A dental implant can stop, or at least dramatically slow down this process by taking over the function of the missing root.

The continued stimulation of the bone in the jaw ensures that it continues to grow properly and maintains its structure and its strength. The teeth surrounding the implant also benefit from the restored support and so a single dental implant to replace a tooth can save many more of the remaining teeth.

One for all and all for one

Here at Moor Park Dental in London, dental implants are being used in a wide variety of ways. A single implant can be used to support a crown or a bridge and you can now have new teeth in a day.

Are missing teeth detracting from your life?

Losing your teeth can seriously affect your quality of life, creating unwanted issues with eating or speaking and also your appearance. If the smile you see in the mirror is not the one you would like, you may find that your confidence starts to suffer. Gaps in your mouth can also lead to instability for your remaining teeth, as they can drift. If you have avoided considering replacements because you do not like the idea of dentures, then you may be interested in an effective technique available in London. Dental implants are used by Moor Park Dental and offer a secure solution to missing teeth.

dental-implants-londonWhy are dental implants so popular?

At our practice in London, dental implants are valued because they look, feel and function just like natural teeth. Your appearance will be restored and you can live fully again. While you can enjoy your new teeth, there are also other advantages that you may not be aware of. When you bite and chew, the pressure exerted on your jaw stimulates the bones and tissues, keeping them strong. This does not happen when there are gaps or you wear dentures; however,but implants perform the same role as natural tooth roots and keep your jaw healthy. Having implants allows any remaining teeth to be preserved. If you have a bridge, healthy teeth need to be ground down to support the bridge.

What should I expect?

When you have your first appointment regarding dental implants in London your concerns and requirements will be discussed. We will also take x-rays if required and provide you with a written report, suggested treatment plan and an estimate of costs. If the case is very complex we may require a CT scan. Your implants are small metal screws that are inserted into the jaw under local anaesthetic. When they are stable, they can be used as a secure base for a single replacement tooth, several teeth or a full set of dentures.

Life after losing your teeth

Joe Bhat is our principal dentist at Moor Park Specialist Dental Centre and is a specialist in both Oral Surgery and Prosthodontics.

dental-implants-londonPeople lose their teeth for different reasons. Age, accidents or underlying health issues can all result in gaps in your mouth, which can be unsightly as well as causing problems with everyday activities such as eating and speaking. You may feel self-conscious about your smile or have noticed that your face is starting to sag because it is not getting the support it used to from a full set of teeth. Dentures can be unsatisfactory, but there are alternatives. For patients at Moor Park Dental in London, dental implants are a stable, permanent solution which fits into their lifestyle.

How do dental implants work?

The implants are small metal screws that are fitted into the jaw during a minor surgical procedure. During the healing process, the bones and blood vessels mesh around them to hold them in place. When they are stable, they can be used as a secure base for a single replacement tooth, several teeth or a whole set of dentures. In some cases, we can fit your new teeth in the same day so you can walk out with a totally new smile. Having dental implants in London can be an effective, long-term restoration as, with the correct care, they can last for several decades.

What are the advantages?

The first thing that other people will see is a great smile, but because implants replace natural teeth roots, you will find that you hardly notice that you have them. Your new teeth are carefully made to match the tone and shape of existing teeth so your improved appearance will be very natural. Your replacement teeth will be secure so you can talk without fear of dentures falling out, and bite and chew as normal. This means that you can enjoy a full range of food again. Having dental implants in London also improves the strength of your jaw as they stimulate the bone in the same way as a natural tooth root. This prevents the shrinkage that can occur in people who wear dentures.

You could experience a new lease of life with dental implants in London. Moor Park Dental looks forward to talking to you to find out how we can help.
