Dental Implants in Lower Hutt

Are you missing a tooth or multiple teeth? Want your smile to look and feel more natural?

Dental implants are a well-established option for replacing missing teeth, your dentist will discuss all available options and what may be most suitable for you. A dental implant is a surgical fixture that is placed into the jawbone and allowed to fuse with the bone over the span of a few months. The implant, in fact, replaces the root of a missing tooth. In turn, this artificial tooth root serves to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.

Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth, several teeth, or all of the teeth.

How A Dental Implant Can Help You

Having a dental implant fused to the jawbone provides a stable, long-term foundation for a replacement tooth that functions independently of surrounding teeth. because it stands on its own without affecting the nearby teeth and has great stability.

It’s an excellent option for filling in a gap and helping restore your tooth’s function, such as chewing and speaking. Dental implants can be used to replace one or multiple missing teeth, subject to a clinical assessment of your suitability.
