Missing teeth can impact more than just your smile—they can affect your confidence, your ability to eat and speak, and even your overall oral health. Fortunately, dental implants offer a long-lasting, natural-looking solution to restore both function and appearance.
At Oaks Dental Practice in Ruislip, we provide high-quality dental implant treatments tailored to your individual needs. Whether you’ve lost a single tooth or need a full-mouth restoration, dental implants can help you regain your smile with comfort and confidence.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small, titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a replacement root for a missing tooth. Once healed, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is securely attached to the implant, creating a restoration that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth.
Components of a Dental Implant:
- Implant Post – Acts as the artificial tooth root
- Abutment – Connects the implant to the crown or bridge
- Crown/Bridge/Denture – The visible, custom-made replacement tooth or teeth
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer numerous advantages over traditional bridges or dentures:
✔ Permanent & Durable – Implants are designed to last for decades with proper care.
✔ Natural Appearance – Custom-made crowns blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
✔ Preserve Jawbone Health – Stimulate bone growth and prevent jawbone shrinkage caused by tooth loss.
✔ No Impact on Adjacent Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants don’t require altering neighbouring teeth.
✔ Restore Full Function – Enjoy your favourite foods, speak clearly, and smile confidently.
✔ Low Maintenance – Implants are easy to care for with regular brushing, flossing, and check-ups.
Who is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are suitable for most adults who are missing one or more teeth and are in good general and oral health. Ideal candidates should have:
- Healthy gums
- Sufficient jawbone density (or be eligible for bone grafting)
- A commitment to maintaining good oral hygiene
- No untreated gum disease or uncontrolled medical conditions
A dental examination in Ruislip with our experienced team will help determine if implants are right for you.
The Dental Implant Process at Oaks Dental Practice
Here’s what you can expect from the implant journey:
- Initial Consultation
We’ll assess your oral health, take digital scans or X-rays, and discuss your treatment goals.
- Implant Placement
The titanium implant is placed into your jawbone under local anaesthesia. Healing typically takes a few months as the implant fuses with the bone (a process called osseointegration).
- Restoration Placement
Once healed, we attach the abutment and your custom-made crown, bridge, or denture. Your new smile is now complete!
- Follow-Up & Maintenance
We’ll guide you on how to care for your implant and schedule regular dentist checks in Ruislip to ensure long-term success.
