Are you fed up with having to take time off work to go and see your dentist, or do you simply find it impossible to get an appointment that fits in with your hectic schedule? At Clapham South Dental Centre, we have four days of appointments from 8am to 8pm, Monday to Thursday. On Fridays we are open 8am to 6pm, and then we are open 9am to 6pm on Saturday as well. If that isn’t enough time for you to get booked in, we also offer Sunday appointments from 9am to 4pm. We believe that getting access to great dental care to maintain high standards of oral health is really important, which is why we are open 7 days a week for our patients. We also offer a wide range of treatments, so that you shouldn’t need to go anywhere else to get treatment such as dental implants Clapham. Dental implants Clapham provide a treatment that is not offered by all dental practices, however, at Clapham South Dental Centre we can deliver this treatment to replace your missing teeth in the most natural way possible. Having dental implants Clapham allows replacement teeth of crowns, bridges or dentures to be fixed securely into your mouth all day, every day. 
What are dental implants?
Dental implants consist of metal screws that are attached to the jawbone. They are firmly fixed in place, because the gums heal around them and hold them into position. Our dentists can then use an abutment to attach the replacement teeth and they will then be permanently in your mouth. We can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a whole set to give a completely natural looking smile. What’s more, your smile should also function naturally too, because the teeth shouldn’t be able to move. This means that you will be able to eat normally, without having to avoid hard or chewy foods, such as an apple a day! You will also be able to take care of them easily by just brushing, flossing, and coming to see us for routine dental check-ups. If you maintain your oral implants like this, you could have them for a lifetime.
Dental implants are good for you!
If you’re wondering why it’s important to replace missing teeth, then it’s probably worth knowing that leaving gaps in your smile can lead to further dental issues, because bacteria can get to the remaining natural teeth and gums more easily. You can also develop issues with chewing your food and having jaw pain, as well as speech difficulties. By replacing missing teeth, you should minimise these negative effects. You could also find that you look younger, too! This is because when you have missing teeth, the face can become drawn in and look aged. Once you fill in the gaps, however, it gives the face the structure it needs for the skin to look smoother and more youthful. What’s not to love about that? You won’t need major surgery, only requiring local anaesthetic and a couple of appointments to have the screws fitted and then to return to have the permanent teeth attached to them (we will give you temporary replacement teeth, while the gums are healing).
So, if you would like to meet our caring, friendly and professional team to get yourself a fabulous smile, come and see us at Clapham South Dental Centre – we’re here all week!
