People who drink coffee\nor cola in excess may have stained teeth due to the tannins in the liquids\nwhich cause colour compounds to stick to the tooth enamel, and a smoker may\npresent with one or more blackened teeth. However, colour isn\u2019t the only\nidentifiable factor that makes your smile truly your own; the way your tooth\nemerges from the gum, its size and shape are all a part of your unique oral\nmakeup which can change over time, depending on how you chew or if you grind\nyour teeth at night or not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s for these reasons that <strong>dental implants in\nSt. John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> are able to match a false porcelain crown to your\nnatural teeth perfectly; you can&#8217;t have one pure white tooth next to your\nnatural teeth which were never pure white to begin with, it isn\u2019t natural and\nwill be highly noticeable and look very out of place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Matching the crowns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The science of the implant is one thing, how the\nbone fuses to the titanium screw over time is a fascinating tale all on its\nown, but the art of creating a tooth unique to an individual is a whole other\nfield of expertise that dental laboratories have just about perfected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using photography and shade guides at your\nimplant appointments, we are able to provide the laboratories with as much\ninformation as possible to perfectly match your new crown to the rest of your\nteeth. The use of porcelain perfectly mimics the natural transparency of real\nteeth, and dental artistry professionals are able to sculpt not only the custom\nshape, but get the false tooth to look real by making the tip thinner than the\nbase and recreating the different waves and ridges each tooth may have\naccording to your personal profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find that you would like to whiten and\nbrighten your smile, it is best to get your natural teeth bleached before your\ndentist sends a colour profile to the lab, because porcelain cannot be bleached\nand it is advised that any colour changes be done before your new teeth are\nmade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Taking care of your new teeth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of <strong>dental implants in St. John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> is that your new porcelain teeth act just like normal teeth and are cleaned and taken care of in the same way, by brushing and flossing daily. With regular dental check-ups advised as per usual.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So you\u2019ve decided to get dental implants in St. John\u2019s Wood to replace missing or decaying teeth and your next question may be, will they look fake or out of place?
