Dental Implants in Warlingham

In the 'olden days', before implants, patients suffered! Top of the list; the indignity of loose dentures. Then followed bridges to fill gaps left by lost teeth, these are great on paper, but very destructive to the neighbouring teeth. Finally patients with 'gaps', just left there for the world to see and question from afar.

Then something really great happened. It was discovered that the super strong metal titanium could be used medically to pin or plate together broken bones. The titanium was so well tolerated by the body that bone would develop an incredibly strong union between itself and the titanium.

Then dental implants evolved. Dental implants can be used to stabilise loose dentures giving back enjoyment to eating a greater variety of food. They can be used to bridge gaps that extend over several missing teeth or to replace gaps left by a single lost tooth without damaging neighbouring teeth. Placement of dental implants help to provide an excellent long term solution to many common dental problems in many patients.
