What does the dental implant procedure involve?
To achieve this level of integration, it is important to be examined by a qualified and experienced dental professional.
The procedure will happen in stages, typically:
- Step 1: Begin with a thorough examination to detect any signs of gum disease and assess the quality of the bone
- Step 2: A CBCT 3D scan will be arranged to assess the quality and density of your bone material and to check the shape of the area before any work takes place. We have our own 3D scanner on-site.
- Step 3: Under anaesthesia, the bone is gently prepared for the titanium implant. The gum is re-closed by stitching or grafting, and then it is left to heal. The bone tissue itself will grow and begin to anchor itself upon the specially designed textured surface of the titanium implant. During this healing process, patients are given a temporary bridge or denture.
- Step 4: After healing, the gum can be lifted to attach a healing cap to the implant. Four to six weeks later, when the gum has matured, the final permanent work can be completed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is dental implant procedure painful?
When you are given a local anaesthetic or non-unconscious sedation, you will not feel pain during or shortly after the procedure. As the anaesthetic wears off, you may feel some discomfort, and while the implants are healing, there may be some inflammation and tenderness. Each patient also feels varied levels of pain according to how they are made. You can discuss any fears you have with our resident dentist and also your needs in pain-management. Our implant dentist will discuss with you how to reduce and treat any discomfort or tenderness, so that your mouth feels back to normal.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are used internationally, and are long-lasting with a very high success rate. Research has shown that some people wear their dental implants up to thirty years. For strong teeth and gums, it is recommended to follow oral hygiene guidelines and to see our resident dentist periodically for a check-up. By doing so, we can help you identify any challenges with your oral health early and provide you with the relevant treatment you need.
How do I look after my dental implants?
Dental implants are a permanent replacement for your natural teeth. The crown or bridge is the tooth part and the implant is not visible after it heals beneath the surface of the gum to the bone tissue. Looking after these dental implants is not much different to the way you would look after your natural teeth. Sometimes implants are placed next to natural teeth. Patients may have one, two or a full mouth reconstruction. Making sure you brush twice daily with the correct brushing technique, use a fluoride containing toothpaste and chlorhexidine mouthwash, and floss at least once a week helps to prevent tartar and plaque build-up. Chewing sugar-free gum after meals also contributes to good oral hygiene. Avoiding any damage to the implant site is crucial, so gentle brushing and eating of soft foods initially is recommended. Visiting our dental hygienist for regular check-ups will also help to maintain both your natural and implant teeth.
Are there alternatives to dental implant treatment?
After your initial consultation at one of our dental implant centres in Stoke on Trent, you may decide to delay your treatment for a time, and this can suitably be arranged. You may also wish to consider other options for replacing your missing or damaged teeth, such as partial or full dentures and bridges. Partial dentures or a bridge can be easily anchored to your natural teeth. Full dentures can also be worn long-term by replacing and relining the dentures for healthy wear. All these options can be discussed with our dentist who is looking forward to meeting you, and to helping you learn more about your oral hygiene for a healthier you.
