Dental Implants
If you’ve a missing a tooth or teeth, dental implants are the best solution and are a natural-looking and more stable alternative to bridges or dentures.
At The Dental Spa we provide a variety of Dental Implant treatments, using the renowned and trusted dental implant system by Straumann, ranging from placing a single tooth implant to full mouth rehabilitation. In cases of inadequate bone we are also able to place bone grafts.
A titanium post is placed in the jaw bone to support a replacement tooth. This acts like the root of a natural tooth. Implants can also be used to support fixed bridges or to stabilise dentures.
The implant is usually left for some weeks to allow the bone to form a strong bond to the implant. Then, once the implant has integrated with the bone, an artificial tooth is attached to it to give a natural look. The artificial tooth is custom made to ensure the ideal colour, shape and size.
Straumann Dental Implants offer some really exciting benefits to patients and often provide a life-changing experience. These benefits include:
- Restoring the mouth as closely as possible to its natural state
- Increasing comfort by eliminating loose fitting dentures
- Avoid filing down healthy neighbouring teeth (as with a conventional bridge)
- Preserve facial structure by virtually stopping deterioration of the jaw
