What are the benefits of having teeth implants?

Specific benefits of the procedure include:

 

  • Dental Implants look and feel like real teeth.
  • Dental Implants restore chewing ability.
  • Dental Implants are very strong and long lasting.
  • Dental Implants can be a solution to ill fitting dentures.

 

 

Are dental implants safe?

Teeth implant’s is a very safe procedure provided it is performed by an experienced dental implantologist. Many studies have shown that teeth implants treatment has a success rate of over 90%. Overall, teeth implants are an ideal option for patients in good general health, who have good oral hygiene but smoking can reduce the success rate.

 

 

How are teeth implants placed?

Teeth implants are placed in the jaw bone, usually under local anaesthetic, and left to heal for 6 weeks or longer depending on the bone quality. Once integrated in the bone the tooth implant can be restored.

 

 

Is the procedure uncomfortable?

At the Harley Street Dental Clinic we are proud to specialise in pain free dentistry. Our goal is to make teeth implants procedures pain free and as comfortable as possible. Our dental implantologists always place patient comfort as top priority and ensure optimum levels of analgesia with sedation or general anaesthetic if necessary.

More teeth implant treatment FAQ’s

How long can teeth implants last?

Dental implants are known to last for a lifetime, if they are properly cared for. Some factors that affect the longevity of teeth implants are:

 

  • The location of the implant. Usually implants placed in the front of the jaw last longer than those placed at the back. 
  • The quality of the treatment received.
  • The quality of the implants inserted. Certified implants last longer than non-certified implants, and do not break easily.
  • Practice of proper oral hygiene by the patient.
  • Patient’s compliance with regular visits to the dentist.

 

What is the total duration of teeth implant treatment?

The duration of dental implant treatment varies from patient to patient, and largely depends on the requirements of the particular case. Below is a tentative time-table for average patients:

 

  • Planning: Usually takes about a month.
  • Insertion: Could take between 1-3 days, depending on the number of teeth implants to be inserted.
  • Healing: This period varies between 3-6 months, depending on the patient’s healing ability and general health.
  • Final reconstruction: Generally takes about 1-3 days, depending on the number of prosthetic teeth to be fixed.

 

In cases where additional treatments like bone grafts are advised, the duration will be longer.

How long does the procedure to insert dental implants take?

The length of the procedure for placing dental implants varies, and is determined by the specific treatment required by the patient. Some factors which determine how long the treatment will take are:

 

  • The position of the missing tooth in the mouth. Back teeth generally take more time than front teeth.
  • The number of teeth implants to be inserted. The higher the number of implants to be placed, the longer the treatment.
  • The skill of the dental implantologist.

 

For an average patient, the procedure usually takes about 1-5 hours, depending on the particular case.

What materials are dental implants made from?

Most teeth implants in use today are manufactured from commercially pure titanium and available in four different grades, depending on the amount of carbon and iron they contain. Other materials used in the manufacture of dental implants are surgical stainless steel, zirconia and Titanium 6AL-4V. While zirconia is a ceramic derived from zirconium, titanium 6AL-4V is a titanium alloy containing small percentages of aluminium and vanadium. Zirconia is not as strong as pure titanium, but its pure white colour makes it a good alternative. The titanium alloy, on the other hand, offers better tensile strength and similar osseointegration properties as pure titanium.

Are dental implants safe?

Teeth implant treatment is generally considered to be a very safe procedure, having a confirmed success rate of more than 95 percent, if performed by a qualified dental implantologist. 

 

Dental implants are mostly made of medical grade titanium, or other biologically inert materials. This means that after they are implanted in the bone, they will integrate without a foreign body response from the human immune system in most cases. In fact, according to various statistics, implants are accepted by the body in more than 98 percent of cases.
