Dental implants Windsor
A long-lasting form of restorative dental treatment, dental implants Windsor work by being placed into the jawbone where the missing teeth should be. A dental implant is a metal screw typically made out of titanium. Under a local anaesthetic, a small incision is made in the jawbone in order for the dental implant to be inserted. Once the implant has been placed into the jaw, the remaining bone is stimulated which will then grow and mesh around the dental implant.
The healing process of this initial procedure is usually between eight to twelve months, but once the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone, an artificial tooth is made which is constructed to look like any remaining natural teeth and this is then placed on the metal screw.
The benefits of having dental implants
There are many benefits of having dental implant treatment at Old Windsor. Firstly, by replacing your missing tooth with a dental implant, functionality will be restored, meaning you will be able to eat and chew your food as normal without any complications. Dental implants are also made to look as natural as possible so that they do not stand out when placed next to your remaining teeth. Dental implants also help to retain your bone structure by stimulating the bone, meaning that the integrity of your facial structure is maintained and you do not acquire a ‘sunken look’.
