Missing Teeth & Implants

Dental crowns in Cobham, Surrey.

Dental crowns in Cobham, Surrey.

A crown is a type of dental restoration used to fix teeth that have been broken, weakened by decay or contain a very large filling.

Patient journey involves:

  1. An impression is taken of the tooth that needs restoring.

  2. A crown is made in the dental laboratory to fit the tooth precisely and match the neighbouring teeth.

  3. The tooth is then prepared, and the crown is fitted securely on top.

A crown could be a good solution for you if you have some discoloured fillings and would like to improve their appearance. Crowns can be used to replace these to give you a more appealing smile. Additionally, if you have had root canal treatment, you will need a crown to protect or cap the restored tooth, allowing you to eat and bite down on it as if it was a natural tooth. Crowns are also used to anchor a bridge or denture firmly in the mouth.

Patients benefits:

  1. Strengthens remaining tooth structure.

  2. Natural-looking restoration.

  3. Functions like a real tooth, so you can bite and chew as usual

Dental Bridges in Cobham.

If you require a more extensive restoration than a crown or have more than one tooth that needs to be repaired, a good solution is a bridge.

Patient journey involves:

  1. Bridges are usually made of a precious metal base, which gives them a solid structure and makes them hard-wearing. If you need a bridge in your smile line, porcelain is usually added to the base to make it look more like natural teeth.

  2. A bridge helps to strengthen the prepared teeth and makes chewing and eating easier because they are fixed and can’t come out.

  3. Some bridges can also be fixed to your jaw with dental implants if you have several missing teeth next to each other.

  4. Once you have a bridge fitted, you will have to take extra care during your daily hygiene regime to ensure it stays plaque free and does not cause bad breath.

Patients benefits:

  1. A sturdy way to restore several teeth in a row.

  2. Beautiful, natural-looking restoration.

  3. Restores the ability to chew and eat as before.

Dental Implants in Cobham

Dental Implants in Cobham.

Have you lost all or some of your natural teeth? Bridges, dentures and flexible dentures are not the only solution, thanks to advances in modern dentistry. Have you heard of dental implants? Implant dentistry offers a clinically proven and safe solution to getting a great smile back and being able to bite and chew with confidence.

Patient journey involves:

  1. Dental implants are small metal screws placed in the jaw in place of a missing tooth.

  2. Once established, crowns, bridges and dentures can be fixed onto the implants, creating a natural-looking and stable restoration.

Patients benefits:

  1. It stimulates the remaining bone to grow and mesh around the metal and tiny blood vessels, preventing bone loss.

  2. Retained bone structure prevents the face from acquiring a ‘sunken’ look.

  3. Implants help restore function so you can eat, chew and bite as usual.

  4. Implants are a natural-looking way to replace missing teeth.
