What Is A False Tooth Implant? The Rundown

IU false tooth

A false tooth implant is simply another name for a dental implant. The transformative treatment is a great way to restore confidence in your smile by fixing broken, worn and missing teeth. Skip to:

Dental implants Vs false teeth procedure

The false tooth implant procedure includes inserting grade 5 titanium implants into your jawbone. A porcelain crown is then placed on top. While your mouth heals, the implant fuses with your jawbone, leaving behind a bright, natural-looking smile. As false teeth is another way to refer to dental implants, the same procedure is used.

What are the different types

There are many different types of false teeth implants. If you are considering undergoing this treatment, consult with your doctor to decide which option is best for you.

  • Single Tooth: Replaces an individual tooth. A titanium implant and crown is fitted.
  • Dental Implant Bridge: A single implant can hold a bridge containing 2 or more adjacent teeth. Multiple tooth implant bridges contain 3 or more teeth. Acrylic and monolithic zirconia options available.
  • All On 4 Dental Implants: The minimum number of implants required for successful upper jaw teeth replacement. Uses 4 implants to secure 10 to 14 teeth to your upper jaw.
  • All On 6 Dental Implants: Uses 6 implants to secure 10 teeth to your upper or lower jaw. Suitable for when more implants are required to make your arch secure.
  • Smile In A Day: A temporary arch of teeth is fitted on the first appointment. Your final arch of teeth is fitted after a few months once your gums have healed. This treatment is also known as full mouth dental implants.

The benefits of fake teeth

One major benefit is the improvement in your quality of life. Enjoy steaks, apples, sweets and all your favourite foods without pain or sensitivity. Here at Yorkshire Dental Suite, our dental implants last up to 20 years with proper care, offering life-long results. The confidence boost a fake tooth provides is very significant. Any chips, gaps, cracking or discolouration in your smile is quickly fixed. The procedure is also painless – our skilled dentists offer a wide range of sedation options to help you feel as relaxed as possible. You may feel some discomfort as the implant heals, but this is normal. If the pain persists however, please consult your dentist.

The potential side effects

Like any medical procedure, having a dental implant fitted comes with risks. Infections and nerve and tissue damage are potential complications. The implant may not fuse with the bone properly either – if this happens, Yorkshire Dental Suite can try the procedure again once the area has healed. In rare cases, there is an increased chance of heart failure. While they are long-lasting, dental implants are not indestructible, and your crowns can become damaged. If you need a replacement, you will need to pay extra as it is not covered by the warranty. The fake tooth implants may discolour over time too and cannot be whitened, so it is critical that you maintain good oral hygiene and attend hygienist appointments to protect its brightness. Conclusion: A false tooth implant is a life-changing treatment that improves your day-to-day life. Whether it’s a single tooth replacement or a full smile revamp, Yorkshire Dental Suite delivers results that last a lifetime.
