Dental Implants Preston - The Freedom You Deserve

Dental implants are today’s utmost substitute to natural teeth. They can be your doorway to a transformed new self-confidence and peace of mind. An implant is, essentially, a sophisticated titanium screw which is placed into the jaw bone to replace the root of a lost natural tooth. The implant fuses with the jaw bone to form a secure foundation for tooth replacement. The end result ... replacement teeth that look, feel and function just like natural teeth. 

The embarrassment, irritation and self-consciousness often experienced by people who have missing teeth, those who wear dentures or who have suffered through older methods of tooth replacement, are overcome with the confidence of permanently anchored dental implants.

Dental implants are now recognised as routine treatment for a full range of problems from replacing a single tooth, to full oral rehabilitation. Recent advances in medical and dental technology have led to expanded areas of clinical practice never before thought possible only a short time ago. With such advances adding to one of the most researched and successful treatment modalities in dentistry to date, dental implants are today considered the standard of care for many oral conditions, and the best alternative to natural teeth or dentures.

Dental Implants Failure

Many factors are attributed to failure of a dental implant, either directly or indirectly. 

The cause is often related to a failure in the Osseointegration process (The growth action of bone tissue). For instance, if the implant is placed in a poor quality bone, or incorrect position,Osseointegration may not take place. 

Dental implants may break or become infected (like natural teeth).

Regrettably, dental implant failure is a common occurrence. even when proper procedures are followed, things can go wrong. When you're dealing with the human body, it isn't possible to have 100% predictable outcomes. But when treatment standards are compromised, it invites difficulty.

Some failure happens despite the best efforts of the dentist and the patient. But some are result of the natural tendency of both dentists and patients to look for the short-cuts.  Here some of the causes:
