Whilst the number of those turning to treatments such as dental\nimplants are steadily rising, there continues to be a portion of potential\npatients who refrain from seeking out the life changing procedure out of fear,\nor misinformation around the procedure. \nTo combat this, we\u2019ve collated vital information around what implants\nare, and how you could benefit from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting to the root of things<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are a cosmetic solution to\nteeth which have been damaged beyond repair, or lost through accident or poor\noral hygiene. Unlike similar forms of treatment for lost teeth, such as crowns\nor bridges, dental implants solve the problem at its root. This is done through\ncreating an artificial tooth root from\ntitanium-alloy that is surgically inserted into the patient’s jawbone.\nThis artificial root is used to attach a replica tooth firmly in place in a way\nwhich is similar to how a natural tooth would be fused within your jaw. The\nresults of dental implants both look and feel exactly like natural teeth, and\nare far sturdier than crowns or bridges, which are a prosthetic solution to\ngaps within your mouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am I eligible for implant treatment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst the past few years have brought about a\nvast increase in the amount of new patients taking the initiative to seek out\ncosmetic dentistry solutions such as dental implants, there are still a\nstaggering amount of people who live each day with an untreated missing tooth,\nor teeth. The first step to restoring your smile would involve a consultation\nwith one of our implant team here at Sheen\nDental Implants<\/strong>, to assess your eligibility for\ntreatment. In order to successfully install dental implants, patients\nmust have healthy, strong gums, and a jawbone which is sturdy enough to support\nthe new root. Patients who have gum-related issues such as gingivitis may not\nbe eligible for treatment at that time, which is why it is essential that\npatients undertake a consultation period prior to seeking treatment.\nAdditionally, those who have experienced bone loss around their missing teeth\nmay not be eligible for dental implants. Bone loss is caused by the surrounding\ntissue around the affected tooth being reabsorbed and dispersed by the\npatient’s body, often due to the gap being left untreated for a considerable\namount of time. This can result in the entire facial structure of the patient\nbecoming altered. However, here at Sheen\nDental Implants<\/strong>, we\u2019ve found that the vast majority of those who seek out\nimplant treatment are eligible, and once they\u2019ve finished their consultation,\nand providing they feel comfortable with the process, they will be well on their\nway to achieving a straightener, fuller and healthier smile. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
