What are dental implants?

Dental implants are a long-term treatment for missing teeth. They offer a discreet and more convenient alternative to traditional dentures.

The implants are made from titanium and are screwed directly into your jawbone. After they are fitted, the bone will start to connect to the tooth, so the artificial tooth remains firmly in place. 

After the area has healed, your dentist will fit a porcelain crown over the top of the implant. They will take special care to ensure they blend in naturally with your existing teeth. 

After a face-to-face or virtual consultation with an experienced implant dentist in Preston, you will receive a personalised treatment plan. This will be based on your individual smile goals. You will be able to see what your teeth will look like afterwards to give you an idea of the kind of results you can expect.

We are proud to offer competitive pricing along with high-quality care throughout the tooth implant journey. Come and talk to us today!

What is the implant procedure and how does it work?

The implant procedure works by using titanium screws, which are placed directly into your jawbone. After they are fitted, the bone will start to connect to the tooth, so they remain firmly in place. 

Once the area has healed, a porcelain crown will be placed over the top of the implant. Your dentist will take special care to make sure that the implant blends in naturally with your existing teeth. 

Before your procedure, you will have a check-up with a dedicated implant dentist to make sure you are suitable for treatment. They will assess the health of your teeth, take X-rays and review your medical history.

The implants are often fitted in two sessions. First, your dentist will fit the implant into the jawbone. Then in around six months, once the area has healed, you will come back to the practice to fit your replacement crowns.

We provide a comprehensive dentistry service that includes implant dentistry at your local Preston practice. We’re based at the Eastway Retail Hub, Fulwood, Preston, PR2 3FB. 

If you are feeling anxious about your treatment, we offer gentle sedation to help calm your nerves during the dental implant procedure. This will make sure you are relaxed and won’t feel any discomfort.

How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants can last as long as your natural teeth as long as they are cared for properly. 

Implants are a long-term investment, so you want them to last for as long as possible. It is important to always follow the aftercare advice of your dentist to make sure you get the most out of your treatment.

Your dentist will also recommend that you come back to see us for regular check-ups. As part of your maintenance programme, you might want to consider a twice-yearly scale and polish with one of our dedicated dental hygienists to keep them squeaky clean. 

The implants are fixed into your jawbone so you don’t need to remove them as you do with other treatment options like dentures. This offers a more convenient and discreet solution to missing teeth. 

It is important to remember that they work just like natural teeth, so need to be looked after just as well.

How long does the dental implant procedure take?

The implant procedure itself takes up to 6 hours depending on how many teeth you need to replace. If you only need a single titanium screw, then it can be as quick as 1-2 hours. 

However, your implant journey from consultation to completing treatment and fitting your crowns can be anywhere from 6 months to 1 year. 

This is because you will need to allow around 3 months or more for the treatment area to heal after your initial procedure. Over time, your jawbone will connect with the titanium screw so the crowns can remain firmly in place. 

The healing process varies from patient and patient and we’ll be there every step of the way.

We understand that you may feel self-conscious about having a gap where the missing tooth is. Here at Dentistry by Cure Clinics, we will make sure that you are not left with a space in your smile during the healing process.

While you wait, you will be fitted with a temporary tooth. You will need to keep the area as clean and healthy as possible by regularly brushing and flossing. It is important to avoid any infections that could delay your progress.

Can I get dental implants on the NHS?

You can’t usually get dental implants on the NHS as dentures are often a cheaper alternative. They can restore the appearance of a healthy smile but aren’t suitable for everyone.

Implants may occasionally be funded if there is a particular reason you can’t wear dentures. People that have had significant tooth loss from mouth cancer might have access to implants at an NHS dental practice. Trauma from an accident might also mean that dentures might not be an option for you.

Dental implants are generally only available from a private dentist, which can be expensive. This is why we offer payment plans to suit you and your budget. This includes financing options so you can spread the costs over a number of months.
