Hertford Dental Implants offers a number of implant-based treatments to replace one, some, or all of your natural teeth. Dental implants are the only permanent way to replace missing teeth, and are the only way that a dentist can replace the tooth roots. This is important both in holding your new crown, bridge, or denture securely in place, and to keeping your jaw bone healthy and strong.
When several or all of the teeth are missing from one jaw, the bone beneath the gums will begin to resorb or shrink. This causes the fit of traditional dentures to change, necessitating frequent visits to your dentist to have them relined, adjusted, or even totally remade. A shrinking jaw bone can also change the entire structure of your face, making you look old before your time.
At Hertford Dental Implants, we can prevent all of these problems from happening. Implants are one of the most exciting dental developments of the past three decades, offering an effective long-term solution to tooth loss that is aesthetically pleasing, secure, and highly realistic in terms of action.
A dentist can use implants to treat pretty much any tooth loss scenario. Among the popular implant-based treatments at Hertford Dental Implants are:
- Replacing a single tooth
- Replacing back teeth
- Replacing all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw
- Replacing a few adjacent missing teeth
- Restoring the entire mouth with a complete set of new teeth
If you have lost one, some, or all of your natural teeth, we invite you to join us at Hertford Dental Implants for a consultation with our principal dentist, Dr Gordon Black. He will perform a thorough clinical assessment including using x-rays and CT scans as necessary, and will then come up with a fully customised treatment plan to suit your individual needs, so that you know exactly what to expect.
At Hertford Dental Implants we can replace a single tooth with one dental implant and a crown, several or all of your teeth with a series of implants and a dental bridge or dentures. Whatever tooth replacement you need, it will look and act naturally.
