What is Dental Implant Surgery?
Why replace a missing tooth?
Losing a tooth is not just a cosmetic issue. It can affect your oral health in ways that are easy to overlook. A missing tooth allows neighbouring teeth to shift out of place, which can lead to bite problems, uneven wear, and difficulty chewing food properly.
Over time, this can result in the jawbone becoming compromised and changing the way your face looks or your smile due to loss of support. Therefore, replacing a missing tooth helps maintain proper alignment and allows you to chew and speak comfortably. Most importantly, though, replacing that missing tooth allows the individual to smile and socialize confidently, eliminating the worry of having spaces between their remaining teeth.

Single/Multi-tooth implants
Dental implants are a dependable alternative to restoring both single and multiple missing teeth with the goal of creating a natural-looking and functioning smile. Replacing both the “root” portion of the tooth, as well as the visible part of the tooth (crown), dental implants help to preserve the surrounding bone structure and maintain the proper position of the surrounding teeth. The firm support provided by dental implants enables patients to chew and speak comfortably, while also providing support for their existing teeth. Dental implants have similar aesthetic characteristics to one’s existing teeth. When looked after correctly, dental implants can last for many years while supporting a healthy and well-balanced smile, giving patients back their confidence and comfort.

The Implant Process
Your journey to a complete, confident smile in three simple steps
Initial Assessment
The journey starts with a personalised consultation where the dentist checks your oral health and uses diagnostic images to decide if dental implants are the right option for you.
Implant Placement
A biocompatible titanium post is gently placed into the jawbone, allowing it time to naturally bond and create a strong base for the replacement tooth.
Final Restoration
After healing, a small connector is secured to the implant, and a custom-crafted crown is fitted, restoring comfort, function, and a natural appearance.

Titanium implant fixture osseointegrates to the living bone of the jaw. This allows for a durable and strong anchor for a mouth restoration. Dental implants are used to restore a single tooth, multiple teeth or a full upper and/or lower set of teeth. Dental implants are one type of procedure that is available to patients for tooth/teeth restoration.
Dental Bridges:
“Dental bridges” is a technique of dental restoration that generally consists of two important components: the replacement of dental bridges and crowns. The dental crowns are attached to both sides of the replacement tooth (also known as politics). In this procedure, the replacement tooth is placed over the missing tooth stain and the dental crowns are attached to the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Therefore, a bridge consisting of a replacement tooth and crowns is created to cover an empty place when the adjacent teeth are used as a support for the bridge or a replacement tooth. That is why it is known as the dental bridge. The repair process protects decayed or damaged teeth, strengthening the jaw and strengthening it. It is economical, convenient and highly efficient. Prevents tissue infection and tooth loss. It is tender, swollen or bleeding gums.
Full Coverage Crowns:
The crown is a lid that fits over the tooth to restore its original shape and strength. The crowns can be made of an alloy of the metal, stainless steel, ceramic or porcelain, and can be used if a tooth is too damaged by decay to support the filling. Porcelain is more discreet than metal or silver and can be molded easily according to the appearance of natural teeth for an impeccable appearance. Crowns can be especially useful for children whose teeth are severely damaged by the baby’s bottle and can not maintain the filling. The crown will serve to strengthen and preserve the tooth until it falls naturally, leaving space for the secondary tooth.
Tooth Colored Fillings:
White resin fillings are just dental fillings that restore and protect damaged teeth. They also replace unattractive metallic fillers. The best part or advantage of dental fillings is that they look the same as your natural teeth. Occasionally, patients feel embarrassed when the metal filler is visible, however, with these types of fillers, patients can be relaxed. The damage we cause to our teeth can only be eliminated by such dental procedures in general dentistry.
