Here are some frequently asked questions about implants:
1. My dentist said i have no bone, can i still have implants?
Yes, often bone can be reconstructed to give a platform for implants
2. I don't want metal, can i still have implants?
Yes, We can use ceramic implants to replace your teeth
3. Can i get implants on the NHS?
Implants are currently only available in rare circumstances on the NHS, like tooth loss due to cancer or cleft palate or trauma
4. Is it ok if i dont replace my tooth?
The mouth is a well balanced system, with teeth in balance with their opposite and adjacent teeth. If you lose one, the other teeth will drift into the space long term, and this may cause problems.
5. Can you have a tooth and an implant in a day?
Yes, in the right circumstances, and in most front teeth cases, we aim to place the implant the same time we remove the tooth, in many cases we can put an artificial tooth on the site at the same time.
