If you have ever gone through the process of losing a tooth then you will understand that is something that none of us would ever wish to go through, as the experience is often a messy, painful experience that can leave an impact on our mouths far beyond the time of the loss.
You, along with many other people, may find that you have to make minor changes to the way you use your mouth in order to avoid any further discomfort.
Many of those who lose a tooth or several teeth decide to stop eating tougher foods such as steak or nuts, as they find using the gums to chew tougher food is hard work and causes them some level of discomfort. Where people have lost teeth at the front of the mouth they may choose to avoid smiling when out in public, as they may wish to avoid any embarrassment they may feel about the loss of their teeth.
If any of the above rings true for you then you may decide that you wish to find a way to replace your missing teeth, this may have brought you into contact with devices such as bridges or dentures which are both suitable for tooth replacement solutions, However, neither of these devices can provide you with a permanent, fixed in place replacement to your missing teeth.
At Ipswich Dental Surgery we can provide our patients with a tooth replacement solution that will feel just like their natural teeth, by the use of dental implants in Ipswich. Giving you the option to regain your teeth in a way that is fixed in place and feels completely natural.
Good reason for choosing this treatment
If you are looking for a tooth replacement treatment that is hard-wearing and strong enough to cope with the hazards and rigours that your teeth experience with daily use, the dental implants in Ipswich may be the tooth loss solution you have been looking for.
This is a solution that has been designed to feel and look like the natural teeth you have lost, so there is no need for you to be concerned about any kind of strange feeling within your mouth or disparity within the look of your teeth. Best of all, you will be able to use your new teeth in a perfectly normal fashion shortly after your treatment, so you will be able to enjoy those tougher foods and smile once again.
The treatment procedure
In order to explain the treatment procedure with this tooth loss solution, we will refer to the replacement of a single tooth, however, this is a solution that can be used to replace multiple teeth where necessary.
First, a screw made from titanium will be inserted into your jawbone with the head of the screw positioned just above the gum, this helps to create a strong base for your new tooth to be attached to and held in place. Your new tooth will be made using a ceramic crown that will be shaped and coloured in a way that will allow it to blend in with any teeth surrounding your replacement.
