Missing teeth can affect more than just your smile; they can also impact your ability to eat, speak, and maintain proper oral health. Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth, offering both functional and aesthetic benefits. At Lansdowne Place Dental in Peterborough, we specialize in providing high-quality dental implants that restore your smile and confidence.
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible materials, typically titanium, that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once the implant integrates with the bone, it provides a strong and stable foundation for a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture.
Dental implants offer several advantages over other tooth replacement options, such as dentures or bridges:
1. Natural Look and Feel
Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The crown is custom-made to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, providing a realistic and aesthetically pleasing result.
2. Durability and Longevity
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Unlike dentures, which may need to be replaced or adjusted over time, implants are a permanent solution that offers long-term stability and comfort.
3. Improved Oral Health
Implants help preserve the jawbone and prevent bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing. This not only maintains the structure of your face but also supports the health of your surrounding teeth.
4. Enhanced Comfort and Convenience
Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are fixed in place, eliminating the discomfort and inconvenience of dealing with adhesives or slippage. You can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing your teeth are secure.
5. High Success Rate
Dental implants have a high success rate, making them a reliable option for tooth replacement. At Lansdowne Place Dental, our experienced team uses advanced technology and techniques to ensure successful outcomes.
1. Initial Consultation
Your journey to a restored smile begins with an initial consultation at Lansdowne Place Dental. During this visit, our skilled dentists will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if dental implants are the right solution for you.
2. Implant Placement
If you’re a candidate for implants, the next step is the surgical placement of the implant post into your jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. After placement, the implant needs time to integrate with the bone, a process known as osseointegration, which typically takes a few months.
3. Abutment and Crown Placement
Once the implant has fully integrated, an abutment is attached to the implant post, and a custom-made crown is placed on top. This completes the restoration, leaving you with a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one.
4. Aftercare and Maintenance
Proper care is essential to ensure the longevity of your dental implant. We’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions and schedule regular checkups to monitor the health of your implant and surrounding teeth.
