Dental Implants Offer The BEST Solution For A Missing Tooth or Teeth

If you have a missing tooth or teeth we understand life is never quite as comfortable as it could be. Anxiety over how you look, how you smile, how you eat and how you feel around others affects confidence and your overall well-being. At Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants in Reading, Berkshire, we believe that dental implants offer the very best solution for patients suffering from missing teeth.

Here’s 10 reasons why dental implants offer unmatched benefits for our Reading dental patients in the long and short term.

1 Dental Implants look exactly like natural teeth.

We’ve placed thousands of implants over many many years and love how happy patients are when they have their final teeth. Many patients tell us it’s a life changing experience which improves their self-confidence and self-esteem beyond measure.

2 Dental Implants are durable and long lasting.

Success rates for dental implants are almost 100%. At Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants in Reading, Berkshire, we only use the highest quality and most established implant systems, highly regarded by dental implant specialists, worldwide. As long as patients stick to a good dental hygiene regime and keep regular dental check-ups there’s no reason why dental implants shouldn’t last as long as natural teeth.

3 Dental Implants feel like your natural teeth, only better.

Run your tongue over a dental implant and they’ll feel just like your real teeth. You’ll have to brush and floss them as you would normally but, unlike dentures, there’s no adhesives or soaking them in a glass overnight. They’ll also never need a filling or root canal work. In fact, most patients tell us they forget they even have implants after treatment.

4 Dental Implants allow you to eat the food you want.

For many patients this is the single most important benefit to implant treatment. It’s important not to underestimate the simple pleasure of biting into an apple or choosing a steak from a restaurant menu, without any fear of what might happen to your teeth or loose dentures.

5 Dental Implants preserve the health of adjoining teeth.

Your new implant will have no negative effects on the healthy teeth either side. When you eat and chew food using your implant the forces go through your jaw rather than the through soft tissue or your adjacent teeth. This has the effect of preserving and protecting your surrounding teeth and gums. Some other tooth-replacement options may require adjoining teeth to be compromised or lead to them being affected if extra force is placed on them.

6 Dental Implants prevent bone loss.

If a tooth is not replaced you’ll also experience loss of bone. This matters because bone strengthens your jaw and gums reducing the chance of fractures and other oral health problems developing. Bone loss and shrinkage can also affect your facial structure. Your dental implant fuses to the jawbone and ensures the bone is preserved and even stimulates re-growth. If you have experienced bone loss then don’t worry. At Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants in Reading, Berkshire, we offer synthetic bone grafts for patients looking for dental implants.

7 Dental Implants can replace multiple missing teeth.

If you have two or more missing teeth it’s really important to close those gaps as quickly as possible to avoid any further mispositioning of teeth and jawbone and to stop any further dental problems developing. At Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants in Reading, Berkshire, we have dental implant solutions for multiple missing teeth;including implant supported bridges and sameday or teeth-in-a-day dental implants which can replace your entire arch with dental implants and offer more stability than conventional dentures. There are now no areas in your mouth or teeth that can’t be replaced and Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants in Reading, Berkshire, is one of the very few dental practices to offer the new state-of-the-art full mouth reconstruction which delivers more precise, accurate and safe dental implant placement than ever before.

8 Dental Implants offer incredible value for money.

At first glance dental implant treatment is a more expensive option than other dental treatments but when you consider the strength, durability and length of time they last, they actually work out as a lifetime investment few patients regret. Work the investment out on a cost-per-year basis and the treatment can be lower than alternative dental treatments. Puresmile Reading Dental & Implants also offers great patient finance options to help you spread the cost of dental treatment.

9 Dental Implants improve the quality of life.

As discussed earlier, having a missing tooth and teeth can have a multitude of negative effects on the quality of life. Some are obvious; you look older, you can’t eat what you want and you smile less. Other’s are hidden; loss of confidence, self-esteem and increased anxiety. Dental Implants offer natural-looking teeth that are long-lasting, feel totally secure and give you back that care-free smile of youth.
