Dental Implants Glasgow
Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
A dental implant is effectively a hollow screw which has an external thread. That engages
with the bone.
We would prepare a small cavity in the bone and we would insert the implant. It attaches
to the bone over a period, usually, of a couple of months.
We are able to put crowns on implants. We can put bridge work on implants and we can
also put dentures on implants, attach plastic to implants which means effectively patients
will have something that is fixed, they can chew very well with and it's a very useful
way of restoring the dentition to its original form, in other words giving you your smile
back and giving you good function again.
A dental implant is an ideal way of putting teeth back where there are gaps. It's not
the same as having your own tooth. However it's the next best thing.
