Dental implants in Totnes

Why might I need an implant?

A dental implant is a fixed solution for one or more missing teeth, and can help restore both your smile and your quality of life.

An implant is made up of an artificial titanium root that is fixed to the jawbone, with a crown or bridge fitted on top. They can be made to look and feel just like natural teeth. If you are concerned about your replacement teeth looking realistic or coming loose, implants are an ideal option.

Implants also safeguard your overall dental health. Replacing missing teeth is extremely important, as missing teeth cause bone loss which can age your face, and could potentially cause adjacent teeth to become loose too.

What are the benefits? 

• They look and feel just like natural teeth
• Provide permanent stability and comfort without affecting healthy teeth.
• Won’t come loose or fall out.
• They last for many years if you maintain good oral hygiene.
• Implants prevent ageing bone loss, by stimulating your bone structure and stabilising the surrounding teeth.
