Dental implants in Newcastle upon Tyne
Dental implants represent the cutting edge of contemporary dentistry. Implants are incredibly versatile and can be used to replace single teeth, multiple teeth or even a full arch of missing teeth.
Dental implants are implanted into the jaw acting like a root, and the replacement teeth are later fastened to it. Dental Implants feel and function just like natural teeth on biting. The dental implant is a small, slightly tapered screw designed to copy the shape of a natural tooth root.
This shape makes the implant easier to insert as it almost matches the size and shape of the original tooth root it is replacing. It is made from Titanium Alloy, a biologically safe material which the body accepts as its own.
