Benefits of Dental Implant Restorations

Whether you have one missing tooth or many, dental implants present a unique opportunity for improvement. They permanently fuse with your existing jawbone structure, creating a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. They can also:

  • Replace one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth
  • Prevent teeth from shifting into a missing space
  • Renew a more confident smile
  • Restore normal chewing, speech, and digestion
  • Preserve a youthful appearance
  • Permanently secure a bridge or denture

Restorations attached to implants are fixed in place. They will not slip or move, which improves speech and promotes your self-esteem. With successful implant treatment, you can confidently live your life with a naturally beautiful smile.


Rebuilding Your Smile with Implant-Supported Dentures

For years, removable dentures were the only solution to correct a full row of missing teeth. While dentures are a convenient and aesthetically appealing option, they don't address all your health and functional concerns. Common problems such as denture slippage and dietary restrictions can make wearing conventional dentures unappealing.

Implant-supported dentures combine the effectiveness of dentures with the stability and convenience of dental implants. At Yorkshire Dental, we offer this premium restoration option to help you achieve a healthy and permanent solution to missing teeth.

What are the Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures secure your custom prosthetic teeth with titanium implant posts. They are designed with special attachments that snap onto the implant, so they do not shift or slip out of place. You don't have to remove them every night, and they are very comfortable. With regular visits to our office for cleanings and maintenance, you'll enjoy a youthful smile for years to come.

What Does Getting Dental Implants Involve?

While the whole implant process can take several months to a year, your results are designed to last a lifetime. Treatment is completed in phases, including:

  1. Consultations and Planning: Treatment begins with a thorough evaluation of your oral health to determine if implants are the best solution for you. Your current dental health, medical history, and lifestyle will determine which restoration you need and whether any surgeries, such as a bone graft, are required.
  2. Implant Placement: Inserting your implant post is done with skill and precision by a dedicated specialist we collaborate with to ensure optimal results.
  3. Osseointegration and Healing: Time is needed for natural tissue and bone to fuse around your implants and heal properly. Healing and osseointegration may take several months, and we will monitor your progress regularly.
  4. Finalizing Treatment: We will attach your custom-made crown, bridge, or denture restoration to your implants. Once they are in place, you'll be able to chew, speak, and smile just as you would with natural, healthy teeth.

Do I Qualify for Dental Implants?

Because dental implants must be placed into the jaw, the bone must be full and healthy. If you've been missing teeth for a prolonged time, you may have gum recession and bone loss. We may refer you to a specialist for a bone or tissue graft to give you the best chance of successful implant treatment.


Let Us Help You Love Your Smile Again

Every tooth in your smile is essential for helping you to chew and digest food as well as allowing you to speak and express yourself freely. Teeth also play a vital role in helping to preserve your natural facial features and jawbone structure. At Yorkshire Dental, we can help you rebuild your smile through high-quality implant restoration treatment.
