If you want to find a dental practice that offers the latest techniques and can address all of your dental needs, then Broadway Dental Centre is the place for you. With a wide range of treatments to address both general dentistry and more specialist care, we can help. Our dentist in Tooting is able to treat the whole family. We aim to give all of our patients a warm welcome and make you feel comfortable and relaxed when you are here with us. An example of one of our more advanced treatments is dental implantation for patients with missing teeth.
Dental implants
If you have one or more missing teeth, our dentist in Tooting may recommend dental implants to treat this. Dental implants involve having screws attached to your jawbone and they fuse with the body’s tissues to become fixed into position. To these screws, we can then attach your replacement teeth of crowns, bridges or dentures, depending on whether or not you need a single tooth replacing, several teeth, or a whole set. The reason we love dental implants is because once the replacement teeth are attached to the screws, they shouldn’t move at all, no matter what you eat, drink or say!
Other reasons to choose dental implants
Aside from the fact that dental implants should act like natural teeth in that they don’t budge, you may also love them because they are easy to maintain. To take care of your implants, all you will need to do is brush and floss as normal, and come to see us for your routine check-ups. On top of this, you won’t have to worry about taking them out at night as they will stay in your mouth at all times, just like your natural teeth. Furthermore, your implants should be impossible to tell apart from your natural teeth as the replacement teeth are made to match each other and any natural teeth that you still have. This means that you will have an aesthetically beautiful smile and can feel confident in letting it loose on the world without anyone knowing it isn’t completely natural!
Initial consultation
When considering a treatment, you need to have an initial consultation with our dentist Tooting to assess your suitability for it. During this appointment, we will examine your mouth and discuss your concerns about your smile. We will take X-rays if we need to and then we will be able to present you with the treatment options for your specific needs. If you require your teeth replaced, we will need to assess if there is enough bone density in your jawbone for dental implants to be fitted, for example. However, if there isn’t, don’t despair! We may be able to offer a bone graft first and we will be able to discuss these options with you. So, if you need a dental practice that has got it all going on, whether you need tooth replacement or something else, come and visit us at our surgery, where to provide great smiles all round is our mission.
