• A dental implant is a small titanium cylinder that is placed into the bone of your jaw to act like the root of a tooth supporting a crown, bridge or perhaps a special custom-made denture. If you have a single missing tooth a dental implant is an ideal replacement and means no other teeth are involved in restoring the tooth unlike a bridge treatment.
  If you have no teeth at all dental implants can provide a long-term solution allowing comfortable eating and confident smiling. Scientific studies show their long term success is extremely high. For many patients, dental implants are the ideal solution for their dental needs. A full assessment is essential for dental implants and a written treatment plan and quotation are provided for your particular needs
• Dental implants offer a permanent solution for your missing teeth. A dental implant is essentially a substitute for a natural root and commonly it is screw or cylinder shaped. Each implant is placed into a socket carefully drilled at the precise location of the intended tooth. Often the implant can be placed at the same time as removal of the tooth, all on the same day.

  If an implant has a screw-thread on its outer surface it can be screwed into position and if it does not, it is usually tapped into place. The main aim during installation of any implant is to achieve immediate close contact with the surrounding bone. This creates an initial stability, which over time is steadily enhanced by further growth of bone into microscopic roughnesses on the implant surface.

  In order to support replacement teeth, dental implants normally have some form of internal screw thread or post space that allows a variety of components to be fitted. Once fitted, these components provide the foundation for long-term support of crowns, bridges or dentures. Click here for illustrated information.

  Our Specialist in Restorative Dentistry can provide implants at the Roberts-Harry Clinic. Please contact us for an appointment.
