Implants<\/a> are the modern way to replace one or more missing teeth.<\/p>\n

An implant is a prosthetic replacement for a natural tooth which is surgically positioned in the jaw bone beneath your gums. Over time the implant will fuse to the bone and will provide support for an artificial tooth to be mounted individually or attached to bridges or dentures.<\/p>\n

There are three parts to the overall restoration. There is the implant itself \u2013 this is the part that acts like the root and is essentially a titanium screw which sits in the jawbone. Secondly, there is the abutment which is the middle piece that connects the implant to the third part \u2013 the overlying crown or denture.<\/p>\n

Having an implant placed is often easier and less painful than having a tooth taken out and can be done using a simple local anaesthetic. During the procedure there will be no pain, but some discomfort can be expected afterwards for the next few days which can be eased with your usual painkiller.<\/p>\n

Implants are very safe and well established and if they are well looked after (and if the bone they are fitted to is strong and healthy) you can expect them to last for many years.<\/p>\n

Not everybody is suitable for an implant. Good candidates are people with good healthy gums and enough bone to anchor the implant.<\/p>\n
