Not only do they restore your ability to chew, bite and speak, they can give you the confidence to smile again. Replacing missing teeth as soon as possible is greatly in the interests of your oral health, preventing and addressing problems such as gum shrinkage and bone loss.
Dental implants are titanium fixtures that are surgically placed into your jawbone, and act as the foundation for a bespoke replacement tooth, such as a fixed bridge, crown or set of dentures. During your initial consultation with us, your dentist will examine your smile to identify if you have sufficient bone to support implants, and advise on whether single implants, or multiple implants treatment with a bridge or dentures, is the best course of action.

Any tooth that becomes lost should usually be replaced as soon as possible, though replacing back teeth are particularly important. Your molars do most of your chewing and biting work and when they’re absent, this becomes the responsibility of single-rooted teeth located closer to the front of your mouth, which are not capable of breaking down food and supporting strong forces in the long term. Replacing larger teeth like molars as soon as possible is a viable investment into the health of your other teeth, which will not suffer from being overworked in the absence of one or more molars.
