The dental implants<\/a> we supply from our Liskeard, Smile Centre<\/a> practice are natural-looking replacement teeth, which are anchored securely into the mouth via a titanium screw in the jawbone. As well as filling a gap in your smile after tooth loss, our Liskeard tooth implants will help keep the jawbone healthy by stimulating it. If you lose a tooth and don\u2019t seek a replacement, you are making yourself vulnerable to jawbone atrophy. This condition will have a knock-on effect on your looks, prematurely ageing you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dental implant prosthesis will not only give you a tooth\nthat will help you continue to speak clearly and chew your food effectively,\nbut also preserve your facial good looks for longer. It will give you\nconfidence in your smile, which you may have lost, if you feel embarrassed\nabout having a tooth missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need to know\nbefore getting a dental implant in Liskeard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before you have a dental implant fitted, you will have your\nmouth assessed to ensure your jawbone is of sufficient quality and that the\nprocess of atrophy has not yet begun. Should some deterioration be present,\nthen the process of fitting the implant may be more invasive and require some\nbone grafting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the dental implant has been fitted into the gum, it will take several months to heal. You\u2019ll have a temporary crown placed initially, so you won\u2019t be left without a prosthesis at any point. Your permanent crown will be tailored to fit your teeth exactly and fitted once the gum has fully healed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should you have more than one tooth missing, it\u2019s not\nnecessary to replace each individual tooth with a dental implant from our Liskeard\npractice. A row of crowns can be anchored in place with a single implant at\neither end and a full mouthful of teeth can be provided with just a few implants.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your tooth implant is healed, you\u2019ll find it perfectly\ncomfortable and will soon forget it\u2019s there. It\u2019s permanent and should last for\nover 30 years. You\u2019ll look after it as you would your natural teeth, brushing\nit daily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How quickly should\nyou have a dental implant fitted following the loss of a tooth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ideally, you will make your enquiries about dental implants\nimmediately following tooth loss to preserve the health of your jawbone,\nrestore your smile and make the procedure as quick and painless as possible for\nyou. The best way to find out more is to give us a call and book yourself in\nfor a consultation. When we meet you in person, we\u2019ll be able to examine your\nteeth and act quickly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The benefits of having a dental implant far outweigh the benefits of doing nothing. You won\u2019t suddenly age quickly, you won\u2019t lose confidence in your smile and you won\u2019t suffer from slurred speech, or bite problems due to chewing on one side of your mouth; the side where you have teeth remaining. Contact The Smile Centre today<\/a> and we will be happy to discuss tooth implants further with you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
