﴾A DENTURE WEARER’S GUIDE

TO DENTAL IMPLANTS﴿

Matching Mother Nature We’ve often been told that there’s simply no way to fill a gap in your teeth so that it feels like your real teeth. That’s simply no longer the case. Dental implants are tomorrow’s solution to the age old problem of missing one or more teeth. While a dentist can bridge the gap in the short term, dental implants are the safe way to enjoy life, secure in the knowledge that your smile will light up the room again. You’ll be happy to laugh and have the confidence to eat what you like, when you like.

What Exactly Are Dental Implants? Dental implants are small titanium screws that anchor new replacement teeth into the jawbone giving you the ability to live life to the full, happy in the knowledge that your dental implants are safe and secure. There’s more to dental implants than titanium and replacements. We’ll take you through the full range of treatment procedures so that you’ll be able to decide the perfect option for you and your treatment. A titanium dental implant mirrors the root of a tooth. Securely anchoring the implant to the jawbone, the implant looks and feels like a natural tooth.


Beautiful Teeth A Desire as Old as Time

History documents efforts to replace teeth as long ago as 4,000 years in China, but it was only in the 1950’s that things began to take shape. Discoveries in biomedical research meant that scientists realized that certain types of metal became part of the patient – perfect for securing dental implants in the jawbone. There are now over 50 years of well documented clinical research and experience that demonstrate the reliability of the modern titanium implant. It’s not just about the science though. It’s about the millions of people all over the world who have got their smiles back from one small discovery.


Implant Supported Fixed Full Bridge: ‘Teeth-In-A-Day’

The Teeth-in-a-day technique, is the most effective way to replace your missing

teeth.

We can provide our patients with beautiful, functional non-removable teeth all in one appointment. By offering multiple procedures in one appointment, our patients benefit from avoiding the stress and discomfort of enduring multiple invasive procedures stretched over many appointments. This means you will never be without teeth during the treatment, and you will have more time to enjoy your personal life. Moreover, this technique usually allows us to avoid bone grafting. Bone grafting can add additional treatment time, discomfort and expense.

The Teeth-in-a-day technique is an excellent alternative to wearing conventional dentures. It alleviates so much of what people dislike about wearing dentures. Some of the benefits include:

• Enjoy social settings again without fear of embarrassing moments caused by loose bulky dentures

• No more denture adhesive • No more sore spots


• Regain almost all of your natural chewing and biting ability – enjoy eating what you want to eat instead of the foods your dentures will only allow you to eat.

• Look and feel younger – dental implants preserve jaw bone and facial anatomy

Modern solutions supported by dental implants are the best option for securing loose or ill-fitting dentures.

Implant-retained removable overdentures

The biggest decision you and your dentist must make is determining which type of solution is best for you.

Despite the fact that patients considering implant treatment tend to contemplate a fixed restoration first, implant-retained removable overdentures can also significantly improve eating function and, at the same time, fulfill most expectations and demands.

What are Implant-retained removable overdentures?

Removable overdentures allow you to remove your teeth for cleaning and can be easily “snapped” securely back-into-place on top of the dental implants. Depending on your specific situation, as few as two-to-four dental implants can make a big difference in securing your denture.

Dental Implants – Titanium Roots Titanium dental implants are fixed to the jawbone. They are the root for your new tooth. Your dental implants will be tailored to you to ensure it is the best fit for your jawbone.

Abutment Attaches To Dental Implant Abutments are the element that secures your new tooth to your new tooth root. Usually made from titanium or ceramic, they work with your new tooth root to anchor your new tooth to your jawbone.

Your dental implant and abutment are firmly anchored and form the foundation for your new tooth or teeth to be attached. You may opt for a Crown (single tooth), Bridge (several or many teeth), or a Fixed Prosthesis (all teeth).

The Single Tooth Solution If you are missing only one tooth, this can be simply replaced by a single crown attached to a dental implant.

Good News!

What sets dental implants apart from traditional dentistry is the fact that they won’t affect the healthy teeth that normal crowns and bridge use. The dental implants work independently of your other teeth and work with the jawbone to become a fully integrated part of your mouth, without bone loss or receding gums.


For You, For the Rest of Your Life!

Why Implants?

Dental implants are the reliable, safe, and permanent option for tooth replacement

Dental implants mean that you won’t have to rely on uncomfortable and

unreliable dentures and the never ending quest to find an adhesive that feels as good as natural teeth.

Dental implants bring all the benefits of strong, natural teeth – eat, smile and talk

naturally.

Dental implants become part of you, with the jawbone attaching to the titanium implants with the same security and result of a natural tooth and preserving the look and structure of your whole face.


Taking Care of Your Implants

You’ll be able to look after your dental implants just as you look after your natural teeth. Simple!

Like everyone’s dental impression, every one’s teeth are different. Dental implants are the solution that works with your natural teeth to create a dazzling smile – whether you need to replace one or many. Dental implants will match your exact requirements. Dental implant treatment is often straightforward, performed in the dental surgery. Normally needing only a local anesthetic, you will be able to leave your dentist’s surgery with your new implants straight away. As your treatment will be tailor made, so will your consultation time. Our dentist will talk you through the process first.


Frequently Asked Questions Q. Can anyone have dental implants? A. It’s important that the jawbone is fully developed before dental implants can be inserted. Patients unusually must be older than 18 years of age.

Q. How much do dental implants cost? A. As each set of dental implants are tailor made, the length and cost of your treatment depends on your personal dental circumstances and what needs to be achieved. Contact us for a complimentary consultation and we will be able to assess your case and discuss costs with you.

Q. Are there differences between Dental Implant brands? A. The quality of dental implants can vary from very low quality to top of the range. Many different factors impact the quality of dental implants – from the method and/or location of manufacture, from design to finish. It’s worth spending time researching as with most things the quality may have implications further down the line.

Q. How long will my new tooth/teeth last? A. With proper care your implants should last the rest of your life.

Q. Will I be in pain after the procedure? A. As with many procedures, there will be sensitivity and swelling. This should pass in a matter of days. We can certainly offer advice on effective pain relief should you need it.

Q. Do I get my new teeth and implants on the same day? A. Normally, some healing time is factored in to allow your implants to bond with your jawbone. You will receive a temporary tooth until the healing period is over and you can have your new teeth fitted.


Q. Can I chew, crunch and eat anything with my dental implants?

A. Yes – you should be able to return to living normally and that includes eating.

Q. Can an implant be placed right after removing a natural tooth? A. Our dentist will decide by considering the condition of the extraction site and your jawbone.
