Regardless of your age, missing teeth can be\nmore than a simple aesthetic issue; many people with gaps in their smile avoid\nsocial situations more often, alongside feeling embarrassed about smiling or\nlaughing. While in the past, the gold standard of restorative procedures was\neither dentures or fitted bridges, today, there are more options available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want a more permanent, secure\nalternative to bridges or dentures, come along to Bromley Dental Practice<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our\nteam is proud to offer a myriad of restorative procedures to our patients who\nhave lost teeth, with our most popular solution being dental implants in\nBromley. Fitted securely to your jaw, these prosthetic teeth do not move, do\nnot cause rubbing and feel just like natural teeth! Perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, what are the different types of dental\nimplants in Bromley<\/a> and how does our team choose the right one for\nyou? Read on to find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Single implants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The perfect solution if you’re missing a\nsingle tooth, typical dental implants in Bromley<\/strong> comprise of one implant\nbeing fitted into your jaw, with one prosthetic tooth attached when the implant\nis secured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the overall condition of your jaw\nand gums, our team may be able to attach the prosthetic tooth once they have\nfitted the implant, but typically, there is a waiting period of around 6\nmonths, to allow your jaw to grow around the implant, holding it firmly in\nplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prosthesis will be colour, size, and shape\nmatched to the other teeth in your mouth and will look completely natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multiple implants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have lost multiple teeth in a row due\nto injury or illness, then multiple implants are the answer for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using computer technology to predict the best\nplace for the implants, our team will be able to fill even large gaps in your\nsmile using a single or two implants. Fitted to your jaw with a prosthetic\nbridge or denture, this option looks natural and will once again, be colour,\nsize, and shape matched to the rest of your natural teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your jaw has grown to accommodate your\nimplants, your multiple prosthetic teeth will feel like natural teeth, allowing\nyou to bite into your favourite foods without issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fixed dentures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you lost all of your teeth due to illness\nor age? Are you currently wearing a set of dentures but are fed up with them\nrubbing against your gums? If so, fixed or overdentures are the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our team will usually place 4 implants into your upper and lower jaw, to ensure that your dentures stay in place securely. Once fitted to your jaw, we will attach the dentures, or prosthetics to your implants and voila! A new set of teeth that can bite, chew and allow you to laugh, without fear of them falling out or moving! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
