Dental Implants

At Padstow Dental, dental implants offer a definitive 
solution to missing teeth, blending natural aesthetics 
with enduring functionality.

Crafted from titanium and customised ceramics, these implants seamlessly replace tooth roots and integrate into the jawbone, accompanied by meticulously matched crowns for imperceptible results.

Understanding the Implant Process

Before placement, comprehensive 3D Xrays, digital oral scans and planning software evaluate bone and gum structure, ensuring precise assessment and positioning. In cases of insufficient bone volume, a bone graft may be recommended. Following placement, a healing period allows for osseointegration, with patients often wearing a temporary if needed until the final  restoration  can be inserted.

The Versatility of Dental Implants

Padstow Dental highlights the adaptability of implants, even for complete tooth loss. Utilising in some cases as few as four implants, a full arch of lifelike teeth can be anchored securely, offering stability and comfort comparable to natural dentition. Unlike traditional options, implants provide unparalleled durability and functionality.

Determining Candidacy and Precautions

Implant suitability depends on factors like overall health, jawbone density/volume, and gum condition. Pre-existing conditions must be addressed, with lifestyle modifications such as smoking cessation crucial for optimal healing. Medical conditions and medications require thorough consideration during treatment planning.

Maintaining Implant Health

Implants require no specialised aftercare beyond routine oral hygiene and check-ups. With proper maintenance, they can last approximately 20 years or even a lifetime, reflecting Padstow Dental’s commitment to long-term oral health and patient satisfaction.
