Fill the gap at Aura Dental

People find themselves with gaps in their teeth for all sorts of reasons, the two most common being loss of a tooth due to gum disease or experiencing a knock to the tooth causing it to fall out during an accident.

If you find yourself with a gap in the teeth, it may well be worth considering going for dental implants in St John’s Wood. Here at Aura Dental, we provide the means to get you looking and feeling like you again, whether that’s one tooth, multiple teeth, or you have all your teeth missing.

How does it work

Dental implants in St John’s Wood are an increasingly popular option for those wanting to fill the gap in their smile, as they provide a solution that most closely represents the natural tooth, from the root to the crown.

The first step is to come for a consultation where we can thoroughly examine your mouth and see what type of treatment you need, and if you are suited to treatment.

Generally, if you maintain good oral health, most people are suited to treatment. However, we need to make sure that there is enough bone in the jaw to support the implant as the bone needs to mesh with the new material.

You know the drill

The next step is the treatment itself. This is the bit that people may be most apprehensive about, and understandably so. You may be comforted to know that we use a local anaesthetic to help numb the pain. If you have any concerns about treatment, please let us know so we can tell you all you need to know, and hopefully help put you at ease.

Once inserted, the implant is left to heal and allow the bone and blood vessels to mesh with the implant. This provides a strong base for the new tooth.

Teeth in a day

Getting dental implants in St John’s Wood doesn’t have to be as much of a mission as it sounds. We provide teeth in a day, replacing an arch with a fixed bridge in just one visit.

During treatment, any remaining teeth may be extracted, and 4-6 implants placed to replace them.
