Everything You Need to Know About Dental Implants

Dental implants can be used to replace a missing root instead of resorting to bridges or dentures. They are designed to look and feel like your natural teeth, and if taken care of properly no-one will ever be able to tell you were ever missing any teeth! That is why they are one of the most common tooth replacement option the Derna Dental Clinic team recommend in our Surrey dental office.

Unlike dentures, dental implants are a permanent solution, meaning that you won’t need to worry about removing them to eat or sleep. They also are less likely to slip in your mouth while talking, meaning that there is less of a risk of developing impaired speech.

The best candidates for dental implants are patients with a healthy jaw and gums. If your jawbone is problematic or underdeveloped, a bone graft can give you the base needed to hold a dental implant in place.

Installing dental implants is a relatively straightforward procedure and can be down in-office at Derna Dental Clinic. The best bit? You care for your new dental implants the exact same way you already care for all your other teeth. All you need to do is continue your standard routine of brushing, flossing, and rinsing with mouthwash!
