Dream Smiles - Implants and Invisalign in Shropshire, Birmingham, Oxford

why choose dental implants?

Dental implants offer a natural-looking and steadfast replacement for missing teeth, restoring not only the aesthetics of your smile but also your ability to eat and speak with ease. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are anchored firmly in your jawbone, which makes them as stable and comfortable as your natural teeth.

This treatment option is exceptional for several reasons. Firstly, dental implants help preserve your jaw bone. When a tooth is lost, the bone that used to support the tooth begins to deteriorate. Dental implants mimic the root of your natural tooth, stimulating the jawbone and preventing this bone loss.

The Benefits of Dental Implants?

Once established, implants are well-fixed, strong and can last for many years.
Implants don’t move around- unlike dentures which can be uncomfortable.
Dental implants stop the jawbone from shrinking due to a lack of stimulation.
Implants prevent your other teeth from moving.
They stop food getting stuck in gaps- reducing your chances of gum disease.
Dental implants can help to improve speech and your ability to eat.
Implants can be used to replace any number of teeth.
Implants don’t affect your remaining teeth in any way.
Self-confidence and lifestyle can be significantly improved.

Dental Implant Options

Dental Implant Crowns

This is the most common implant treatment as it replaces the gap left by a single tooth in either the front or back of your mouth. A single implant is placed in your jaw and once healed a crown is placed on top to fill the gap.

Dental Implant Bridges

Dental bridges are used to replace multiple teeth. Implant bridges typically utilise 2 or more implants in order to replace sections of missing teeth. The implants act like pillars to which a bridge can be attached, “bridging” the gap in your smile.

Implant-supported Dentures

Sometimes known as All-on-Four treatments when four to six implants are placed and support an entire arch of missing teeth. Full-mouth Implant dentures are a great alternative to removable dentures in that they function and look like natural and healthy teeth, but don’t need to be removed at night or for cleaning.
