Eating and drinking naturally with dental implants Windsor
Loss of a tooth or teeth through decay or accident is not a pleasant position to be in especially if it is a front tooth or teeth. The latest smartphone technology puts added pressure on us to share our facial image with friends and family and having teeth missing can be embarrassing. There are alternatives such as a bridge or dentures and in some cases this will require some changes to your eating habits. Dentures require daily maintenance to keep them in place and to keep them clean. Over the past seven decades, the dental industry has been working to improve their dental implants Windsor alternative. One of the challenges with regard to replacing lost teeth has been to provide a solid base similar to our own natural teeth.
Now becoming more and more routine
Dental implants Windsor have instigated massive strides in the area of bone grafting which was a problem, especially where the patient suffered from a lack of solid bone into which to insert the implant. In the past titanium mesh was used to help support the shape and volume of the graft while the new bone developed. There were however major difficulties in positioning the titanium and it was time consuming. Technology has found a way and through digitalisation the exact shape and volume of titanium mesh required can now be calculated which also reduces the margin for error. To ensure that the precise amount of stability of the bone is achieved and to enhance wound healing, fibrin membranes are applied. The result of all these incredible dental developments is that, if you require tooth replacement, there is now an alternative that is long lasting and which closely matches your natural teeth.
An additional benefit
The normal result of losing your teeth is that over time your jawbone and tissue will start to shrink. Implants have the added benefit of not only replacing your teeth, but stimulating the growth of your jawbone, which is why we frequently recommend them at our practice Old Windsor.
Why suffer from loss of teeth?
Losing teeth is traumatic but there is no need to live a life of soft foods and embarrassment due to lost front teeth. Dental implants Windsor with our dentist can replace one tooth or up to four teeth supported by just one implant. Replacing all of the teeth in your mouth can be done using the support of just four implants. The real benefit of this procedure rests in the fact that because the system mimics your normal teeth by being anchored into your jawbone, there is no irritating movement as your replacement teeth are stable just like your natural teeth.
The art of creating natural looking replacement teeth
Creating artificial teeth that resemble your own original teeth in colour and shape is an underestimated dental skill. The implants must not only look like your remaining natural teeth so that they blend in, but they must also function equally as well as your natural teeth. You will enjoy the ability to chew food normally as if you had not lost any teeth and you will be able to smile knowing that your implants look as natural as your remaining original teeth.
