When it comes to replacing missing teeth, it can be difficult to decide what treatment is best for you. Although some patients might choose dentures because they fear the possibility of pain with dental implants, it is only a temporary discomfort that is required in order to achieve long-lasting comfort. Whatever you choose, it’s important to choose a treatment that ensures you smile with confidence. That means replacing your missing teeth, instead of facing a future filled with gummy smiles.

At Glenholme Dental, it’s certainly worth considering dental implants in Basingstoke as a long-term and permanent solution to tooth loss. If losing your teeth has meant losing your smile, then filling in the gaps will help you find it and bring it straight back.

The dental implant for you

An implants simulates the work of a natural tooth root, fixing a small titanium screw into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. Over time, and depending on you as an individual, the screw integrates with the bone and becomes ready for a new, natural-looking tooth to be placed onto it.

Are you missing multiple teeth? The procedure works just the same way, only another small screw can be placed on the jawbone to form a base for a bridge to be fixed into place to replace several teeth.

No room for the bad stuff

Following treatment, you’ll be able to grin without the worry of a gappy smile. Not only that, but good oral hygiene will be restored. Filling in the gaps means that there’s less room for plaque to build up for the likes of gum disease and tooth decay.

Make yourself comfortable

For patients who get particularly nervous, we can discuss methods to help you relax, such as sedation.

Get the smile you deserve at Glenholme Dental with our Teeth-In-A-Day procedure. With Teeth-in-a-Day dental implants in Basingstoke, we give patients the luxury of leaving with fixed teeth on the very same day of implant placement.

We are supported by the most advanced, state-of-the-art technology available. If you’re missing one or more teeth, even if you wear dentures, you can live more fully with teeth that look, feel and function like your own, and last a lifetime, in as little as a few hours.

Traditional dentures have existed for hundreds of years – President George Washington probably had the most famous pair of dentures, which were made from cow and walrus teeth. While denture technology has certainly developed since those early days, the fact remains that many denture wearers frequently complain of discomfort, pain, slippage, inability to eat desired foods and an overall drop in self-confidence.

Am I a candidate?

Even if other dentists have told you that you are not a candidate for implants, please come and see us here at Glenholme Dental. There are now advanced techniques available to us that can replace lost bone and could allow you to be a candidate for dental implants in Basingstoke.

Teeth-In-A-Day

Immediate, same-day teeth are a revolutionary concept that we can offer many of our patients. We provide you with fully functioning teeth on dental implants in one single procedure. Using advanced technology and a skillful touch, we can give you a reason to smile with more confidence in one visit.

The creation of your prosthesis for your dental implants in Basingstoke is completed prior to the surgery. The computer-guided implant surgery is often done without any resulting tissue loss in the process. This benefits our patients because it creates less post-operative discomfort, less swelling and less bruising. Often, our patients can resume their normal activities the very next day.

 The procedure

The process will start with a CT scan of your jawbone. This CT scan allows for the generation of a 3D model of the jawbone, which can then be used along with a virtual reality software to plan the implant placement without you needing to be there. This means more accurate implant placement and less chair time for you.

Knocked out teeth are not something any of us want to have to consider. They can be synonymous with gap-toothed smiles for many years, but now there’s no need to let losing teeth affect the rest of your life.

Not only can gaps in your smile be unsightly, but they are also detrimental to your overall oral health. Gaps can significantly change the way you bite, and can cause the jawbone to deteriorate.

So, if you have missing teeth, you should consider some type of treatment to have them replaced. Dental implants in Basingstoke at Glenholme Dental are a permanent solution to the problem, eliminating the need for dentures or other appliances – which can often need repairing over time. Although our dental implants in Basingstoke can last over 20 years, it’s always good to look at the decision from all angles, considering the pros and cons associated with the procedure.

The pros of having dental implants

Dental implants are different to other kinds of dental restorations, in that they are not just attached to the surface of the teeth, but are surgically grafted into the jawbone. They are incredibly hard-wearing because they are made from titanium, which is also resistant to rust and won’t cause infection.

The titanium post is the root of your new tooth. It helps the crown withstand the daily pressures of biting and chewing, enabling it to function as a normal tooth would.

Dental implants in Basingstoke also don’t require any wires, clips, or anchors to hold them in place. This makes them appear much more natural and allows them to blend in with the rest of the teeth.

Our dentists here at Glenholme Dental look upon dental implants as a huge leap forward in dental science, simply because they are almost as permanent as the real thing.

Our quality dental implants in Basingstoke can last many years if they are properly cared for. Other devices designed to deal with the issue of replacing missing teeth just can’t compete with dental implants as far as performance goes.

Not only will your new teeth from Glenholme Dental look and feel natural, they will also stimulate bone growth in the jaw, because they are firmly bonded with it.
