You can lose your front teeth for a number of reasons. Whether it’s an accident or a medical condition, the large gap left behind has the ability to have a huge impact on your confidence. That’s where dental implants step in - this life-changing procedure transforms your smile in just one appointment.
Why consider replacing your front teeth?
Front teeth (also known as incisors) are the most visible part of someone’s smile. If there is a noticeable gap, it can be a real source of self-consciousness. Additionally, when your front teeth are missing, you may struggle to pronounce certain sounds such as "th". This has the ability to drastically change your speech. Finally, missing incisors make it harder to bite, chew and even whistle.
Are dental implants the best treatment to replace your front teeth?
Yes. Your two front teeth play a significant role in your bite, and you need strong, healthy teeth in order to eat confidently. Dental implants are extremely hard wearing, lasting up to 20 years with proper care. Alternative treatments like bridges and partial dentures, do not offer the same durability (up to 10 and 15 years, respectively).
Am I eligible for front teeth dental implants?
When people think of missing front teeth, the first thing for many that comes to mind is a child. If you wish to have a dental implant, you must be at least 21 years of age. Your jaw is still developing up until this point, so implants are not suitable. However, once you reach this age, you will most likely be eligible for the procedure, irrespective of age. The main reason patients are not eligible for dental implant treatment is that they are unable to get finance. Additionally, if you have low bone density you may need to have extra treatments to make the procedure a success, such as a bone graft. Alternatively, opt for a zygomatic or pterygoid implant. These are great options for patients with bone loss, as they anchor to different areas in the mouth.
