Fixed dental implants can provide a solution. Unlike dentures, which do not help maintain the bone in the jaw, dental implants provide a stable base for an overdenture or bridge that fit securely and comfortably in lace avoiding dental sores caused by an ill fitting conventional denture.
We treat patients who just didnt realise there was an alternative to loose dentures and in many cases the average treatment time is 3 months. The result is beautiful. Natural looking fixed teeth. Gemma Cockburn - dental principal.
What are dental implants?
A dental implant is a titanium metal rod which is placed into
the jawbone. It is used to support one or more false teeth. In
practice, both the false teeth and their supporting rod are
known as implants.
The animation demonstrates how a dental implant would be
inserted.
