Dental implants in Loughton<\/strong> are revolutionising the lives of people with one or more missing teeth. Once upon a time, not so very long ago, tooth loss was a life-changing event; but now, thanks to Loughton clinic Broadway Dental\u2019s<\/a> range of implant treatments, it is possible to have a second chance at a smile that is both happy and healthy.<\/p>\n

\"dental-implants-in-loughton\"How dental implants work<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whilst a standard bridge or denture replaces the crowns of any natural teeth you have lost, they do not replace the roots. In fact, both parts of the tooth are equally important, with the roots both anchoring the crowns in place and stimulating the jaw bone when you bite or chew, helping to ensure that it remains dense and healthy.<\/p>\n

At our Loughton dental practice<\/strong>, our skilled implant dentist can use dental implants combined with either a single crown, a bridge, or dentures, to give you back all the functionality and appearance of a natural tooth or teeth.<\/p>\n

Most people at our Loughton dental clinic only need local anaesthetic for dental implants to be placed. For those who have already experienced a significant degree of bone loss, thanks to the skill of the implant team at our clinic in Loughton<\/strong>, dental implants<\/a> can still be placed, with the help of an additional procedure \u2013 a sinus lift or bone graft \u2013 to rebuild the jaw bone.<\/p>\n

It takes a few months for dental implants to heal and integrate with the bone, in a process called osseointegration. During this time your Loughton dentist may fit you with temporary teeth, so there is no need to worry about being left with big gaps in your mouth for months on end.<\/p>\n

Indeed, if you currently wear traditional dentures, it is usually possible for you to keep wearing them during the healing period, after your dentist has adjusted the accordingly.<\/p>\n

Once osseointegration is complete, you will be called back to our Loughton clinic, where your dentist will fit your permanent teeth \u2013 crown, bridge, or denture \u2013 to your dental implants.<\/p>\n

As long as you are committed to taking care of them, and practising excellent oral hygiene, your new teeth could last a lifetime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
