Is there something missing in your life?

Missing teeth can be inconvenient, uncomfortable and unsightly. This, in turn, can affect how you feel about yourself. If your heart sinks when you look in the mirror or you think twice before smiling in social situations or for photographs, then you might like to know how dental implants in Loughton can help. As well as detracting from your appearance, gaps can make it hard to eat or speak properly, which leads to self-consciousness, and limits the range of food you can enjoy. At Broadway Dental Clinic, we have helped many of our patients in Loughton. Dental implants can restore your smile and improve your oral health.

Dental Implants in LoughtonWhat are dental implants?

The implant itself is a small metal screw that is fitted into the jaw during a minor surgical procedure under local anaesthetic to make it as comfortable as possible for you. The bone and blood vessels in your jaw mesh around the implant to stabilise it. When the implant has settled, it can be used as a sound base for crowns, bridges, single artificial teeth or dentures. This offers a far more secure option than removeable dentures, or replacements that fit to existing teeth. Our patients who have experienced dental implants in Loughton have found that they are very durable. Smoking and taking bisphosphonate medications can cause problems but, with the correct care, your implants can last for several decades.

Will my dental implants look natural?

Dental implants are invisible as they are hidden in the jaw. The crowns, bridges or replacement teeth you choose will be carefully made to match the appearance of remaining teeth. If you need a whole new set of teeth, these will be designed to complement the shape of your mouth and enhance your appearance. If you have dental implants in Loughton, people will admire your beautiful smile, but no one needs to know the secret behind it. You will be able to eat and speak as normal so you stand out for the right reasons, not the wrong ones.

We are proud of the services we offer in Loughton. Dental implants could be the solution to your missing teeth.
