Dental implants with our dentist
If you have lost a tooth, then you need to find out about the different tooth replacement options that are available for you. Missing teeth can be replaced in multiple ways depending on your unique dental requirements and personal preferences. Here at Laffan Dental, we prefer to replace missing teeth with dental implants. Our dentist will carry out a thorough dental examination, assess the health of your remaining teeth, assess your gum health and bone health and then decide on the right method of tooth replacement for you.
If dental implants are suitable, then this is always our preferred option. With dental implants, you will be able to have a complete set of teeth for the rest of your life. Implants are a permanent solution for tooth loss; they are small titanium screws that can be inserted into the bone socket of your missing tooth and integrated into the bone to become a permanent fixture in your mouth. Once in place, the implant can only be removed by fracturing the bone.
With dental implants, you can replace your missing tooth with a crown or a set of dentures; this will depend on how many teeth you want to replace. Dental implant surgery has an excellent success rate of approximately 97%. We will make sure that you are eligible for the surgery, and if you are, you will be booked in as soon as possible.
Dental implantation takes approximately six months; therefore, the sooner we begin, the earlier you can enjoy the benefits. Speak to us at Laffan Dental today about tooth replacement, dental implants and other options that are available for you. By replacing your missing teeth, you can restore the appearance of your smile, improve the function of your mouth and restore your self-confidence and self-esteem. You will also prevent further tooth loss and further complications.
