What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically placed into your jawbone, acting as a replacement for the root of a missing tooth. Once the implant has bonded with the bone, a crown, bridge, or denture is placed on top to restore the visible part of the tooth.
Dental Implants Consist of:
- Implant: Titanium post inserted into the jawbone
- Abutment: Connector between the implant and crown
- Restoration: Custom-made crown, bridge, or denture
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement due to their durability, functionality, and natural appearance. They offer several key benefits:
✔ Permanent & Long-Lasting – With proper care, implants can last decades
✔ Natural Look & Feel – They mimic real teeth in function and appearance
✔ Preserve Jawbone Health – Prevent bone loss and maintain facial structure
✔ Improve Speech & Comfort – Unlike dentures, implants are stable and secure
✔ No Impact on Surrounding Teeth – Adjacent teeth stay intact, unlike bridges
Are You a Good Candidate for Implants?
You may be suitable for dental implants if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth
- Have healthy gums and sufficient bone density
- Are a non-smoker or willing to stop smoking during treatment
- Commit to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits
If needed, additional treatments like bone grafting can be performed to prepare the area for implant placement.
The Dental Implant Process at Oaks Dental Practice
- Initial Consultation
We assess your oral health, take X-rays or digital scans, and discuss your goals.
- Implant Placement
The titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia. Healing takes several months as the implant integrates with the bone.
- Abutment & Restoration
Once healed, we attach the abutment and place the custom-made crown, bridge, or denture.
- Ongoing Care
Regular check-ups with our team and excellent oral hygiene ensure the long-term success of your implant.
Caring for Your Dental Implants
Dental implants are low-maintenance but require proper care, just like natural teeth:
- Brush twice daily and floss regularly
- Attend routine dental hygiene visits in Ruislip
- Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste
Our oral hygienist in Ruislip will guide you on the best ways to care for your implants.
