This is a fixed option to replace one or more of your missing teeth with confidence and improve your function, confidence and quality of life.
In essence a dental implant is a titanium fixture that acts as an anchor for your new tooth or teeth. The titanium fixture heals into your jaw. A single tooth like crown, a bridge or a denture can then be secured on the implant.
Implant restorations are an ideal option for replacing teeth more securely.

Best tooth replacement option- feels like a natural tooth.
Long lasting fixed option.
Best performing when compared to alternative options.
Provide long term stability and security without compromising neighbouring teeth.
Maintain health of neighbouring teeth, reducing risk of decay, gum disease, and loss of jaw bone.

Once your jaw has healed, A crown is then fitted on top, to replace your missing tooth. Your dentist will carefully match the colour of your crown to your natural teeth.

Single implant
Multiple Dental Implants
Dental implants can be used to securely anchor replacement teeth, leaving you with a new smile that looks and feels so natural, you will forget the teeth are not your own.
Each missing tooth does not necessarily require an individual implant to replace it. Often a more stable and cost-effective approach is to place an implant at either end of the 'tooth gap' and bridge across the implants with a dental bridge. The chewing function is then restored with a minimum number of implants.
Traditional bridge treatments require your dentist to prepare down the neighbouring healthy teeth, in order to secure the bridge in place. Dental implant technology alleviates the need to damage these healthy teeth, instead anchoring your bridge to implants, bonded with your jaw.
The implant itself is a titanium fixture placed into the jaw, to replace an original root. It’s a straightforward process which can be completed under local anaesthetic. The implant will need 3 to 6 months to heal and bond with your jaw to provide a solid support for your replacement tooth.
Provisional teeth are usually fitted at the same time as your implant placement, which will stay in place until the final restoration appointment.
Once your jaw has healed, crowns or a dental bridge are then fitted on top, to replace your missing teeth. Your dentist will carefully match the colour of your crown to your natural teeth.

Dentures can be uncomfortable, irritating and embarrassing. Many people struggle to chew comfortably and even say that their self-confidence has been undermined by wearing a denture. With advances in implant dentistry, here at Swinnow Dental we now have many innovative techniques for denture stabilisation which can transform your comfort, self-esteem and self-confidence with implant secured dentures.
Using an implant supported denture to replace multiple teeth has the advantages of:
Chewing function is improved - the denture is much more stable - reduced risk of digestive problems
No more concerns about embarrassing situations when a conventional denture may drop - improved self-confidence
Better support for facial tissues - giving a more 'youthful' appearance
No need for unpleasant denture adhesives or pastes
The implant secured denture can be removed to ease cleaning around the implants

How do I take care of my Implant restoration?
Dental implants require the same level of care as natural teeth. Routine health checks with our team at Swinnow Dental will ensure longevity. We will demonstrate how to take care of the restoration.
How it works
The implants are titanium anchors placed into the jaw, to replace original roots. Depending on the treatment, you may need between four and eight implants to secure each denture in place. It’s a straightforward process which can be completed under local anaesthetic. The implants will need 3 to 6 months to heal and bond with your jaw bone to provide a solid support for your replacement tooth.
Temporary replacement teeth are usually fitted at the same time as your implant placement, which will stay in place until the final restoration appointment.Once your jaw has healed, an abutment will be fixed to the implant to hold your denture in place. Dentures are then fitted on top, to replace your missing teeth. Your Newcastle upon Tyne dentist will carefully match the colour of your crown to your natural teeth.
