If you have suffered from the loss of one or more teeth, then you will know how the loss can leave a lasting impact on your mouth, which may have led to you making some changes to the way you eat or communicate with others. If you are someone who has suffered from tooth loss, you may start to find that some foods you used to enjoy have become more difficult to eat as you may have attempted to use your gums and jawbone to carry out the role of the teeth. This can lead you to decide to avoid foods such as steak.

If you have lost teeth at the front of your mouth, you may try to avoid smiling at others or when out in public areas, as you may wish to avoid embarrassing yourself by not exposing the gaps in your smile.
Once you have lost your tooth or teeth, you may have decided to investigate the dental devices that are widely available in the United Kingdom. While bridges and dentures go some way to providing a tooth loss solution, they do not provide you with a solution that is fixed in place.
At Farnham Road Dental Practice, we can offer our patients a tooth loss solution that is permanent and fixed in place via the use of dental implants Guildford, giving you the feeling of having natural teeth.
Providing new teeth that are hard-wearing
With the use of dental implants Guildford, we can give you replacement teeth that are hard-wearing enough to cope with the hazardous sugars and acids found in the foods and drinks that you consume on a daily basis. With the appropriate care, any replacement teeth you receive should last you an entire lifetime; the care needed comes from brushing your teeth twice a day, as recommended by our dental professionals.
When replacing a single lost tooth, we begin by inserting a strong, titanium screw into your jawbone with the head of the screw protruding above the gum; this creates a firm base for your new tooth to be attached. Your new tooth will be created from a ceramic crown that is shaped and coloured to allow it to blend in with any teeth surrounding it and look natural.
Once in place, you will be able to use your new tooth or teeth in a way that feels natural, without any fear of damaging them. You should experience a renewed sense of freedom when it comes to the food you choose to eat, and of course, you should be able to show off your smile once more as any loss at the front of the mouth will no longer be apparent.
Make the change
If you have suffered from tooth loss and want to replace any missing teeth, then you should consider that dental implants Guildford may be a viable option for you.
At Farnham Road Dental Practice, we aim to promote good dental health at all times, and as such, we recommend regular checkups.
