Dental implants – replacing all teeth

Dental implants today are a boon to people, for they help restore both the form and function of the lost or badly damaged natural teeth, especially frontal teeth. The process also serves as a more aesthetic, functional and permanent alternative to a full set of removable dentures often used to replace all teeth.

What to expect?

Full-mouth dental implants first need the dentist to make space for the implants by removing damaged and decayed teeth, and cleaning and preparing the surface. Implants are then inserted into the jaw bone and allowed to bond. They are then capped with a crown and left to heal. Finally, a fixed bridge structure is constructed to hold the implants in place.

Getting dental implants at Veritas Dental Care, however, is a simple, painless process that is usually completed in a single sitting. Capped implants are used to cut down the time taken to complete the process and facilitate healing. Sedation facilities are also available to manage any pain, discomforts or fear!

Advantages

Dental implants can prove beneficial in many ways. They:

• Closely resemble the natural appearance of teeth and mimic the chew and bite functions of the originals.
• Full dental implants help restore and maintain face structure. With the jaw bone safely tucked under the supportive bridge, further damage to the structure is minimized or delayed. In addition, the dental implants themselves bond with the underlying bone, keeping it healthy and in good shape.
• Restore a great smile and boost self-confidence. This is especially true in the case of the young and the young at heart.
• Help elders avoid public embarrassments that are often attributable to removable dentures, which tend to slip out.
• Are reliable and durable, and here to stay for long.
• Do not pose any restrictions on the food pattern.
• Are comfortable and easier to maintain when compared to dentures.

Why choose Veritas Dental Care?

At Veritas Dental Care, full-mouth dental implants are recommended after meticulous assessment of the nature of the problem, medical history and background of the patient. The number of implants (artificial teeth) and the type of bridge tend to vary from one person to another, and are decided after careful consideration. Dental implants and teeth replacements are advised only when the jaw is strong enough to hold the implants, or can be augmented to accommodate and support a full-mouth dental implant.

The procedure is handled by Harvard trained Dr. Sam Sherif, who specializes in full mouth reconstructions. The practice, located right on Harley Street, is easily accessible from all parts of the city. We also handle general dental treatments to address common problems, cosmetic dental procedures, emergency out-of-hours services, and a comprehensive range of dental implants to suit specific needs.
