Tooth Replacement

Dental Implants

Denture implants

Dental implants, suffering from missing teeth, we don’t need to tell you the significant impact it can have on your self-confidence and quality of life! Thanks to
modern implant dentistry, a perfectly functional, natural-looking beautiful smile is absolutely possible! Another excellent reason to invest in dental implants is that they halt progressive bone loss helping you keep your existing teeth.

how does it work?

Denture implants are made up of two components: a titanium screw and a porcelain crown. The titanium screw is gently implanted into your jawbone and acts the same way a  natural tooth root does to anchor your tooth/crown that sits above your gum-line. Biocompatible titanium dental implants have a long (over fifty years) safety history of being used to replace missing teeth, giving you peace of mind.

How do I know if they are right for me?

While dental implants work in most cases, there may be some situations where dental implants are not appropriate such as in the case of significant bone loss. In your first consultation Dr Awad will assess whether dental implants are a suitable option for you. If for whatever reason a dental implant is unsuitable, Dr Awad will guide you to the best alternative option to get you back to a beautiful healthy smile.

Implant Dentures

Slipping Dentures can really get in the way of enjoying a nice meal or laughing with friends! Implant dentures ‘snap on’ are the solution as they are surgically placed in your jawbone ensuring a snug and secure fitting denture. With your denture comfortably held in place, you can once again chew, speak and smile with complete confidence! With dental implants you still have the flexibility to remove them for clean and then simply ‘snap’ them back in, because implant dentures don’t move around, rubbing and sore spots will be a thing from the past!

Dentures VS Denture Implants

Dentures and denture implants  are both dental prosthetics used to replace missing teeth, but they differ in several ways. 

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices held in place by suction or adhesive, it can be a cost-effective option for replacing multiple missing teeth, relatively easy to clean and maintain. However, sometimes they slip and move around in your mouth, causing discomfort and difficulty eating and speaking. 

In contrast, Denture implants are surgically placed into jawbone which act as an artificial tooth root, thus providing a permanent and more stable solution to missing teeth, as they are anchored securely into the jawbone. While they may be more expensive and require a surgical procedure, denture implants offer improved comfort, function, and aesthetics compared to dentures.

Ultimately, the choice between dentures and denture implants will depend on your individual needs, budget, and preferences, and can be best determined by consulting with a dental professional.
