Implantology, which involves replacement of damaged or missing
teeth with a prosthetic alternative, is fast becoming accepted worldwide as the
answer to many patients' long term dental care. Treatment is
suitable for most patients, from replacing just one tooth to a full arch
fixed reconstruction. The East Lothian Dental Implant Clinic also offers
a sedation service.
The advantages of implant treatment include improvement
in the patient's facial appearance and the restoration of a natural
smile. Patients will find that speech and eating can improve
greatly, providing comfort and renewing confidence in a variety of
day-to-day settings. Implants can
also be of particular value to those who find wearing dentures very difficult. This form of
treatment may provide an alternative to further crown and bridgework.
