WHY CHOOSE DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Why choose specialist implants and oral surgery in Birmingham

Natural appearance and function

Dental implants look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. Unlike dentures, they're permanently fixed in your mouth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. For Birmingham patients seeking the most lifelike tooth replacement option, implants provide unmatched aesthetics and functionality.

Preservation of bone structure

When teeth are lost, the jawbone naturally begins to deteriorate over time. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that stimulates and maintains bone growth, helping preserve your facial structure and prevent the premature aging appearance that often accompanies tooth loss in Birmingham patients.

Long-term solution

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last for decades—often a lifetime. Unlike conventional bridges that typically need replacement every 10-15 years, implants represent a long-term investment in your oral health and wellbeing for Birmingham patients seeking lasting solutions.

Protection of adjacent teeth

Unlike traditional bridges that require grinding down neighboring healthy teeth for support, dental implants stand independently without affecting adjacent teeth. This conservative approach preserves more of your natural dental structure—a significant advantage for Birmingham patients concerned about maintaining overall oral health.

Improved quality of life

Dental implants eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience often associated with removable dentures. No adhesives, no removal for cleaning, and no diet restrictions—just reliable, permanent teeth that let Birmingham patients enjoy life without worrying about their smile or what foods they can eat.

Versatile treatment options

Whether you're missing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or all your teeth, implant solutions can be tailored to your specific needs. From individual implant crowns to implant-supported bridges and full-arch restorations, our Birmingham specialists provide customised treatment plans for every situation.

HOW DO DENTAL IMPLANTS WORK?

The science behind your smile restoration

Dental implants are small titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the roots of missing teeth. Through a remarkable biological process called osseointegration, the implant fuses with the surrounding bone, creating a stable foundation for the visible portion of the replacement tooth.

This revolutionary approach to tooth replacement avoids the compromises associated with traditional methods. Because the implant effectively becomes part of your body, it provides the same stability and functionality as a natural tooth root—allowing for completely natural biting and chewing forces while simultaneously stimulating and preserving jawbone.

For Birmingham patients with missing teeth, this technology offers a truly transformative solution that addresses both the visible and hidden consequences of tooth loss.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about implants in Birmingham

Are dental implants painful?

Most Birmingham patients are surprised by how comfortable the implant procedure is. The surgery is performed under local anaesthetic, ensuring you feel no pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort may be experienced during the healing phase, but this is typically well-managed with over-the-counter pain medication.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care, dental implants can last decades or even a lifetime. The titanium post has over a 95% success rate at 10 years. The visible crown may need replacement after 10-15 years. Implants offer a long-term solution for Birmingham patients.

Am I suitable for dental implants?

Most healthy adults are candidates for implants, provided they have enough jawbone and healthy gums. Our Birmingham team will assess your suitability and discuss preparatory treatments like bone grafting if needed. A full medical history is reviewed during consultation.

How do I care for my dental implants?

Care for implants like natural teeth: brush, floss, and attend professional cleanings. Implants can't get cavities, but gum health is vital. We provide aftercare instructions and schedule regular check-ups to ensure success.

How many appointments will I need?

The full process takes 4–6 appointments over 3–6 months. This includes consultation, implant placement, and restoration. If bone grafting is required, more visits may be necessary. We’ll provide a personalised timeline during your first visit.

What if I've been told I don't have enough bone for implants?

We offer advanced bone grafting techniques for patients previously told they weren’t candidates. Dr. Sahota specialises in bone regeneration to build the foundation needed for successful implants. This may extend the timeline but opens up more options.

Can implants replace multiple missing teeth?

Yes. Implants can replace one tooth, several, or all. We use implant-supported bridges for multiple teeth and full-arch solutions for complete tooth loss. Typically, 4–6 implants per arch are used to support full restorations.

How do implants compare to bridges or dentures?

Implants don't affect adjacent teeth like bridges do and are more stable than dentures. They also help preserve jawbone. Though initially more expensive, many Birmingham patients find them to be the best long-term investment for comfort, appearance, and durability.
