Dental implants*

However careful we are, it’s not uncommon to lose a tooth due to injury or dental disease. And unfortunately, missing teeth can affect your ability to speak, smile, eat and chew food. That’s why at Dulwich Dental we offer dental implants as a fixed way to replace missing teeth.

Unlike options such as removable dentures, implants offer a fixed solution. A small pin is anchored into the jawbone, which then acts as a “base” onto which we can attach crowns, bridges or permanent dentures.

We can recommend solutions for missing teeth that are right for you, your health, and your lifestyle. Speak with us to find out if you’re a candidate for dental implants.

Crowns and bridges

Crowns and bridges are common solutions for restoring lost or damaged teeth. These dental restorations are mostly made of zirconia or porcelain, which are fused to metal for strength. We tailor them to match the natural colour of your teeth.

There are two different types of crowns. One option is to make a cap which is fitted over a damaged tooth to enhance its existing structure – this is a common solution if you’ve broken a tooth or have recently undergone root canal therapy. Another option is a full restoration, which is affixed to a dental implant* – this has the effect of restoring a whole new tooth in function and appearance.

A bridge refers to a dental technique which is used to replace multiple missing teeth. Bridges are made from two crowns that are joined to one or more artificial teeth in the middle to create a “bridge” between numerous missing teeth. Also made from porcelain or zirconia, bridges can be a long-lasting solution for any missing teeth.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.

Loream It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
