Why do patients choose dental implants?
One of the main reasons patients choose dental implants is because they provide a long-lasting solution that closely replicates a natural tooth. Unlike removable alternatives, dental implants are securely fixed in place, helping patients eat, speak and smile with confidence.
Dental implants also help preserve the jawbone after tooth loss and reduce the risk of neighbouring teeth drifting into the empty space. This can help maintain both the appearance and function of your smile for years to come.
Many patients visiting our private dental clinic in Sandgate, near Folkestone, tell us that once treatment is complete, they often forget which tooth is the implant because it feels so natural in everyday life.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are considered one of the most effective ways to replace missing teeth. Designed to look, feel and function like a natural tooth, they can help restore confidence whilst supporting your long-term oral health.
The treatment involves placing a small titanium implant into the jawbone, where it acts as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant has healed and integrated with the surrounding bone, a bespoke crown is attached to create a replacement tooth that blends naturally with the rest of your smile.
Dental implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth, multiple missing teeth or, in some cases, a full arch of teeth. At our private dental clinic in Sandgate, near Folkestone, every treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient.
Are dental implants right for me?
Every patient is different, which is why treatment always begins with a consultation. During your appointment, we'll assess your oral health, discuss your medical history and understand what you'd like to achieve from treatment.
Many adults who have lost one or more teeth are suitable candidates for dental implants. Whether you've recently lost a tooth or have been living with a gap for several years, we can help you understand the options available.
At Neka Wellbeing in Sandgate, Folkestone, we take the time to explain every stage of treatment and create a personalised plan based on your needs. If dental implants aren't the most suitable solution, we'll discuss alternative treatments and help you make an informed decision.
The dental implant process
The first step is a detailed consultation where we assess your smile and discuss your options. If dental implants are suitable, we'll create a personalised treatment plan designed around your needs.
The implant is then carefully placed into the jawbone using modern techniques and local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort. Over the following months, the implant naturally bonds with the surrounding bone, creating a strong and stable foundation for the final restoration.
Once healing is complete, a custom-made crown is fitted to restore both the appearance and function of your tooth. The result is a natural-looking smile that allows you to eat, speak and smile with confidence again.
Why should missing teeth be replaced?
Many people assume that a missing tooth is simply a cosmetic concern, but that's rarely the case. When a tooth is lost, neighbouring teeth can gradually drift into the empty space, affecting your bite and creating areas that are harder to clean.
Over time, the jawbone beneath the missing tooth can begin to shrink due to a lack of stimulation. This loss of bone can affect facial appearance and may make future dental implant treatment more complex.
Replacing a missing tooth sooner rather than later can help preserve your oral health, maintain your natural smile and prevent additional problems from developing.
At our private dental clinic in Sandgate, near Folkestone, we often see patients who wish they had addressed a missing tooth earlier. Dental implants can help restore both the appearance and function of your smile while supporting long-term oral health.
