Dental Implants in Weybridge Surrey - An Option For Tooth Loss
A dental implant is often used to replace damaged or missing teeth. Implants are an excellent option for people with several lost teeth and are often used as anchors for orthodontic tooth alignment. Dental implants in Weybridge Surrey are offered by several highly experienced dentists that have exceeded postgraduate education requirements. The implant itself is embedded directly into the bone of the jaw during a minor surgical procedure. This procedure takes place in several steps, beginning with the drilling of a pilot hole. The hole is expanded using progressively larger drill bits and a titanium screw or root device is placed in the hole. This screw ossifies and becomes a permanent part of the jaw.
Dental implants are the optimal way to correct tooth issues such as missing teeth and teeth gaping. The procedure is completed under anesthesia and has a minimal recovery time. Often, the new tooth is placed immediately after the root device is implanted into the jaw and a patient will generally be comfortable in less than three days. This technology is widely recognized as an alternative to the dentures and plates worn in place of missing teeth. Excellent results in most patients are achieved quickly with implants. Although the rooted tooth does not feel exactly like a living tooth, the look of the tooth is impossible to distinguish from natural teeth. Dental implants are preferable over dentures due to the lack of movement in the implant after placement.
Dental implants in Weybridge Surrey are becoming a standard procedure in most countries and the actual technology dates back hundreds of years. Evidence of dental implants has been found in the Mayan civilization during burial site excavation. The first titanium implants came from studies conducted at Cambridge University during the 1950s. This evolution of the technology is well-documented and in places where implants are offered, dentists are required to complete competency testing. This increased education and testing allows you, the patient, the comfort of knowing that the very best dentist is performing your procedure. Dental implants are cutting edge technology combined with ancient methodology.
