Can you tell me more about dental implants?

Q.
I LOST MY FRONT TEETH ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO CAN I GET IMPLANT.WHAT IS IMPLANT ANYWAY.
A.
Thank you for your enquiry.

You may be able to get implants – this will be dependent on the amount of bone you have and the health of your gums. The best thing you can do is have a full consultation with an implantologist so they can give you all your options and let you know if you are suitable for implants.

An implant is a titanium screw that is placed in your jaw bone. Over approx 3-6 months the implant will integrate into your bone. You then have a crown placed on the implant to give the function and appearance of a natural tooth.
