Dental Implants West Bridgford | Replace Missing Teeth with Confidence

Dental implants at a glance

Dental implants can be a great solution to missing, broken, or decaying teeth, and they just so happen to be one of our fields of expertise.

A dental implant looks like a small screw – made from titanium – which is securely fused into the precise position of the missing tooth and acts as a ‘root’ to hold a false tooth or crown in place. Once fitted, the implant will provide long-term support for your new replacement tooth (or multiple teeth) which will be colour and shade matched to your natural teeth.

Thanks to advances in implant dentistry and Dr. Missan’s advanced training and experience, our dental implant options are even less invasive and more patient-friendly than before, and will look and feel exactly like your natural teeth.

We can lose teeth for a number of reasons; including an accident or facial impact, infection, or due to poor oral health or tooth decay.

Dental implants are an aesthetically pleasing, permanent alternative to teeth replacement treatments like dentures, which can be uncomfortable and socially awkward. We use dental implants to replace both single and multiple teeth, and in some cases, we can even replace multiple teeth with just one implant; with one high quality implant screw able to support a bridge of up to four teeth in a row.

Single Implants

The All-on-4 technique is a new and innovative approach that secures a full arch of artificial teeth in the jaw without the need for individual screws.

The process involves the use of four strategically placed implants which form a stable and sturdy base for the arch of false teeth to be attached to. The procedure uses state-of-the-art technology such as 3D X-rays and surgical planning software to ensure absolute precision and accuracy, which also means it can be a quick treatment, so you don’t have to spend hours in the dental chair.

All-on-4 Implants

After a tooth has been removed, the healed jaw bone may be too thin to place a dental implant.

In some cases, the bone can be expanded to fit an implant, but if this isn’t possible or if the facial aesthetics would be compromised, bone grafting is a solution. This involves taking bone from another part of the mouth, such as the chin or back of the jaw, and fusing it onto the site where the dental implant is to be placed. The procedure usually takes 2-4 months to heal properly before the implant can then be placed.

All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-6

Full mouth implant supported bridge

This patient had failing upper teeth which required removal and were causing him pain. He wanted teeth that were supported by implants to restore his smile and to allow him to chew and eat without any concern. We provided him with a Full Mouth Bridge of twelve teeth on six implants. The patient was delighted with the result and achieved his desired outcome of being able to chew and eat as normal.

Upper and lower implant supported overdentures

This patient came in with ill-fitting upper and lower dentures, and she was unhappy with their overall appearance, coupled with the fact that she was unable to chew effectively. Her new upper and lower overdentures grip onto her implants, providing excellent aesthetics and vastly improved function. This allowed the patient to have a more natural bite and to chew effectively like she would with natural teeth. She loves her elegant and natural looking smile and is very thrilled with the outcome.

Lower implant retained overdenture

This patient had poorly fitted upper and lower full dentures. He could not eat as the lower denture was very loose. With a new lower implant retained denture, he now has a denture with vastly improved function and a new smile. The aesthetics are excellent, as is his new bite.

Implant retained bridge

This patient had seven missing teeth and wanted to refrain from wearing a denture. We put a temporary bridge in place which allowed us to make sure it was the right look for her and to check her bite. 10 years later, the outcome remains excellent, showing off a natural gum line and a smile that the patient was delighted with.

Single tooth implant

This patient had a single missing tooth that needed replacement. After inserting a temporary tooth for us to assess the look and bite of the replacement, we were able to give her a new smile, showing off the natural look she was hoping for. It’s almost impossible to tell she’s had a dental implant fitted.
