If a front tooth gets\nknocked out the obvious main concern is that your smile is affected and you may\nlose a lot of confidence because of it, and if a back molar falls out, you may\nhave issues with chewing; but what is more concerning than either of these\nthings is the knock-on effect it will have on the other teeth. When space opens\nup between teeth it gives the other teeth an opportunity to move and shift and\neven to become infected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What the root of a secure tooth does when it is\nanchored in the jaw is support the bone structure, if the root is pulled out,\nyou will begin to lose bone mass in that area over time and it will become more\ndifficult to get an implant to secure itself in place. The loss of bone mass\nwill begin to change the shape of your face, making your cheeks appear sunken\nand aged, due to a loss of fullness, but all this can be avoided with <strong>dental implants in Bromley<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The single implant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For some people more than one tooth needs\nreplacing, sometimes it\u2019s a whole row, but in the case of an injury resulting\nin a single missing tooth, your surgery won\u2019t take as long as a major smile\nreplacement, and the healing time will be much quicker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the dentist has made sure the area is clear\nof debris and is properly prepared for the implant, they will then place the\ntitanium implant into the bone and sew the gum shut once more. Then a temporary\ntooth is attached to the area, so that you won\u2019t need to worry about your\naesthetics while you wait a few months for the bone to fuse with the implant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At your final appointment, your dentist will\ncheck that the fusion process has worked correctly and if the implant is stable\nthen a more permanent tooth is fixed to the abutment which is attached to the\nimplant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By restoring your mouth to its most natural\nstate, you can boost your confidence with a winning smile that allows you to\neat, talk and laugh as you normally used to prior to the accident, also there\nis no change in lifestyle with <strong>dental implants in Bromley<\/strong>. You can clean your\nteeth as usual, in fact, you may very probably forget that you even have an\nimplant and prosthetic, due to how well they fit and function inside your\nmouth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unfortunately, accidents happen; whether you fell down the stairs, got into an altercation or were involved in some other kind of mishap that resulted in a severe knock to the face, it has still caused a tooth to come loose and fall out.
