What is Implant Dentistry?

Implant dentistry is a procedure to artificially replace a missing tooth. A titanium post is inserted into the jawbone during a small surgical procedure and this closely replicates a natural tooth root. The post is left to heal for several months, during which time new bone cells will grow on and around the post, firmly anchoring it into the jawbone. This process is called osseointegration. The next step is to attach an abutment to the implant post and this is used to support the implant crown. Dental implants can be used to replace single or multiple teeth, or to secure or replace full dentures.

Can Anyone Have Dental Implants?

Most people are suitable for dental implant surgery, provided they are in good dental and general health. Age is not usually a problem and many older people have benefitted tremendously from implant dentistry. If you are interested in dental implants, your dentist will need to examine your teeth and gums, and will carry out detailed diagnostic tests. These are used to determine the quantity and quality of your jawbone as it is essential that implants are surrounded by plenty of healthy bone. Your diagnostic tests are also used to plan your implant dentistry as it is important that the implant is inserted into exactly the right place in your jaw.

How successful is Implant Dentistry?

Well-planned dental implant surgery can have success rates of 95% or more, provided the implant is properly cared for afterwards. It is vital to keep the implant clean and well-maintained with regular check-ups and good hygiene at home.

Warning: Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified practitioner.
