If you’re in the market for something to improve the look of your missing teeth then it’s hard to avoid dental implants Clapham. In the last fifteen years, they’ve rocketed to the top of the dental charts with more and more people choosing them over the other more commonly known types of dental replacement. But what’s all the fuss about and are they worth the money?
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental Implants Clapham is a tooth replacement system that uses a screw and anchor system to replace lost teeth potentially forever. The system is unique in that it’s permanently fixed to the bone and doesn’t need to be taken out ever! For the most part, the parts that are drilled into the jaw bone are made from titanium as it’s a property that’s also found in the body and as such should be accepted relatively easily.
Why Are They So Great?
There are a couple of stand-out reasons for the implant's amazing results. Firstly they’re the only system that is fitted into the bone and because of this stimulates the bone to start reproducing bone in the area naturally.
Why is this so important?
Most people lose teeth for some reason related to bone loss or deterioration, this can be due to gum disease, decay or even other medical conditions and so finding ways to help the body naturally start to produce bone in the area again is super important.
Dental implants also stand out when we look at the aesthetic, they are made to look and feel like natural teeth and though lots of other types of tooth replacement systems do this, it’s the fact that they feel so natural that makes them stand out. It’s very common for people who have lost their teeth to feel super self-conscious about what their fake teeth look like and I think it’s understandable why this would be a pressing issue for people.
Then there’s the function element in that they function as normal teeth do. There's no daily reminder that you’re wearing false teeth because of cleaning or removing for eating. Your false teeth are there and there today, as long as you take care of them once they’re in you shouldn’t need to think of them as any different from your natural teeth.
The Cost
With all the amazing benefits there is of course one major drawback and that’s the cost. Dental implants cost more than pretty much any other type of dental procedure and are by far the most expensive form of a teeth replacement system and so choosing if they are right for you doesn’t just come down to look and feel, you also need to take into account if you can afford them. For sure they feel like a large investment in the beginning but when you take into account the results and how long they last this initial investment begins to feel a lot less.
