Implants mimic the appearance of natural teeth. If youʼre missing one or more teeth the team at Dentists of Preston are happy to discuss your options and identify whether youʼre a suitable candidate.

Dental implants have developed into a structured and well-researched procedure and considered the gold standard of care for many oral conditions. Dental implants are medical grade titanium devices placed into the jawbone to mimic the position of the tooth root. They are fixed into place, as determined and planned by our skilled dentists and are often given a period of time to heal and naturally integrate with the bone.

Implants can be used as a single tooth replacement or planned as multiple implants to replace a partial or full compliment of artificial teeth. Once implants are integrated into your jawbone, they provide a solid anchor for your artificial teeth with replacement teeth at look, feel and function like natural teeth. They overcome common obstacles to conventional treatment such as sore spots, poor ridges, gag reflexes or missing teeth.

To receive implants, you need to have healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant.

Are implants safe?
Natural teeth can be lost due to many reasons, but there is no reason to live without teeth. Dental implants provide a completely safe way of replacing a number of missing teeth, or all your teeth if necessary. As with any surgical procedure there are some risks, however with our expertise and knowledge we can reduce unnecessary risk.

How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants can last a lifetime, but depends on how well they are maintained and taken care of. A patientʼs lifestyle and dental hygiene can affect the longevity of a tooth implant, so itʼs important to discuss these factors with us.

How should I care for my dental implants?
Meticulous oral hygiene and regular dental visits are critical to the long-term success of dental implants. Within the first year after getting dental implants, itʼs recommended that you regularly see your dentist to ensure no problems develop. If a tooth implant starts to feel loose or itʼs affecting your bite, you should arrange to see us.

By avoiding the need for bone grafting, the procedure delivers some immediate benefits:
