Replacing missing teeth with Dental implants Navan

Missing teeth can cause a huge array of complications. Depending on the position of your missing teeth, you may find yourself in a lot of discomfort or even embarrassment. If you are missing one of your front teeth, then this can affect the appearance of your smile, draw unwanted attention to your mouth and affect the way other people see you. By replacing this tooth sooner rather than later, you can restore the appearance of your smile and regain your self-confidence and self-esteem. If it is a tooth at the back that has been lost, then although this may not affect the appearance of your smile, it can affect the function of your mouth.

A missing tooth can affect the way you bite or chew and, more importantly, your remaining teeth. Moreover, a missing tooth can lead to misalignment in your remaining teeth as they try to shift and fill the gap left by the missing tooth, and it can affect the teeth above or below, which also try to fill the gap that is there. A missing tooth also results in bone decay, and obviously, it may be uncomfortable to have a gap in your smile when you have been used to having a tooth there all your life. Here at Navan Dental, we suggest that you replace your missing teeth with dental implants Navan.

Dental implants

Dental implants Navan provide a permanent solution for your missing teeth that can last for the rest of your life. Dental implants Navan are small titanium screws that can be inserted into the bone socket of the missing tooth so that the tooth can be replaced with a crown, which will restore the appearance of your smile and restore the function of your mouth at the same time. If you are missing more than one tooth, then depending on the position of the missing teeth, you may need more than one dental implant. You can replace adjacent missing teeth with a set of partial dentures or replace all of your teeth with approximately four implants per arch and a full set of dentures.

We will carry out a complete dental assessment, including x-rays of your mouth to make sure that dental implants Navan are suitable for you. You need healthy gums and bone to hold the implant in place, and when necessary, we may need to carry out a bone or gum graft to ensure the success of the surgery.
