Dental Implants
Restore Your Missing Smile with Manor Dental Practice
If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer a long-lasting, natural-looking solution to restore your confidence and comfort. At Manor Dental Practice, we provide high-quality dental implants in Weston designed to look, feel, and function just like real teeth. Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to decay, injury, or wear, implants can help you eat, speak, and smile with ease again.
Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. It’s placed into the jawbone, where it naturally fuses over time – creating a strong foundation for a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture. Once the implant integrates with your bone, a custom-made crown is fitted on top, blending seamlessly with your existing teeth.
Implants are often chosen because they are secure, durable, and preserve your facial structure by preventing bone loss. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants stay firmly in place, allowing you to enjoy your favourite foods without worry.
Benefits and Suitability
Dental implants in Weston can be an excellent choice if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth.
- Struggle with loose dentures or gaps in your smile.
- Want a fixed, long-term alternative to removable dentures or bridges.
- Have healthy gums and enough jawbone to support an implant.
Implants are designed to look and feel natural, improving both appearance and function. Patients often find that implants make eating and speaking easier and restore confidence in their smile. At Manor Dental Practice, your comfort and safety come first – we carefully assess your oral health and discuss all suitable options before starting treatment.
The Dental Implant Process
- Consultation and Assessment – We begin with a thorough examination and digital scans to evaluate bone density and discuss your suitability.
- Implant Placement – The titanium implant is gently placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic. Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure.
- Healing Period – Over the next few months, the implant fuses naturally with the bone (a process known as osseointegration).
- Restoration – Once healed, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to complete your new smile.
Our experienced team at Manor Dental Practice ensures you’re informed and supported at every stage of the process.
Aftercare and Next Steps
After treatment, good oral hygiene is essential to keep your implants healthy. Regular brushing, flossing, and routine check-ups will help your implant last many years – often decades. You may experience mild tenderness for a few days, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
