IMPLANTS
Implants are the most predictable long-term solution to missing teeth. This is true whether you are missing one, two or have no teeth left. Tooth implants fuse with the bone under your gums to form a strong and reliable foundation onto which we can build natural-looking crowns, bridges or dentures as a replacement tooth/teeth.
Tooth implants are often the closest thing to natural teeth. Removable dentures/false teeth can often be problematic for the remaining teeth and gums, even though they initially cost less.
Implants tend to support the bone at the implant site - this is particularly useful when replacing a single tooth as it keeps the natural contour of the gum line. Successful implants can be made to look and feel like natural teeth, assuming you take care of them and maintain your oral health.
By using the most modern dental equipment and techniques it is possible to have relatively minimally invasive implant surgery.
