What are
dental implants?
Dental implants are small titanium posts that are carefully placed into the jawbone to replace the roots of missing teeth. Once the area has healed, they provide a strong, stable foundation for a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture - restoring everyday function such as chewing and speaking comfortably.
At Stoke Bishop Dental Centre in Bristol, we use dental implants as a long-term option for replacing missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants can help maintain jawbone health and support facial structure over time, giving a secure, natural-feeling result alongside your existing teeth.
Why replace a missing tooth?
There are several reasons why you might consider dental implants:
Tooth loss
Tooth loss can result from various factors, including gum disease, tooth decay, accidents, or injuries.
Dental implants provide a fixed, long-term way to replace missing teeth, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile.
Preventing bone loss
Without tooth roots to stimulate it, the jawbone can start to resorb or shrink over time.
Dental implants can help reduce this bone loss, supporting the natural contours of your face and the stability of your new teeth.
What are the
benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants offer a range of benefits, making them a compelling choice for tooth replacement:
- Natural look and feel: Implants look and feel like your natural teeth. They blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, providing a natural and confident smile.
- Stability and durability: The titanium implants fuse with your jawbone, creating a stable, long-lasting foundation for your new teeth. With good care and regular check-ups, dental implants can last for many years.
- Improved functionality: Implants restore full functionality to your mouth, allowing you to eat, speak and laugh with confidence. There’s no worry about dentures slipping or discomfort.
- Preventing further complications: Replacing missing teeth with dental implants helps maintain your overall dental and general health by preventing complications that can arise from tooth loss.
The dental implant procedure
The dental implant process involves several key steps:
The assessment
At your implant consultation at our Stoke Bishop practice, Dr Paul Wilson will assess your suitability for treatment. In-house 3D cone beam CT scans show your jawbone in detail, so we can check whether any additional procedures, such as bone grafting, are needed before implant placement.
The treatment
Implant placement is carefully planned from your scans and carried out under local anaesthetic, with IV sedation available. Depending on your case, some patients can have their new teeth attached on the same day as implant placement, while others need a healing period of a few months first.
The restoration process
Once the implants have fully integrated with your jawbone, the final restoration process takes place.
Your new teeth are designed to look and function like natural teeth, so you can smile, eat and speak with confidence.
Dental implant FAQs
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants can last for many years. Looking after them with regular hygiene visits and implant reviews, such as through our 5-Year Implant Care Plan, helps protect your investment.
Is the dental implant procedure painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort, comparable to a standard tooth extraction. We use local anaesthetic and can provide sedation for nervous patients.
Am I a suitable candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with good general and oral health are eligible. We’ll assess your suitability during your consultation.
