Case Study: New Teeth with Full-Arch Implants
We can lose our teeth for various reasons from gum disease, tooth decay, oral trauma, and more. Once we lose our adult teeth, we don’t get them back, and prosthetics to replace them can be quite expensive. We want everyone to look after their teeth while they have them, but unfortunate circumstances sometimes leave us with no other options.
COVID-19 Update in Dentistry
Dental practices across England are to reopen for their patients today. While guidance regarding social distancing should still be met, many practices have been in preparation for over a week trying to set up by Monday 8th. As such, we’ve been incredibly busy sourcing and outsourcing a sustainable amount of PPE.
Dental Health During the Lockdown
As of June 2nd, the lockdown has begun to ease slightly here in England. People can spend a lot more time outside with up to six people at a safe 2-metre distance. Also, few children are being allowed to return to primary schools and some workers are being able to return too.
Implant Case Study: My Teeth Are Rotting Away!
Poor oral hygiene over a long period will inevitably begin to erode the teeth. They’ll begin to lose their white glow as the enamel breaks down. You will feel pain, and they might begin to feel loose and even fall out.
Case Study: Being Stuck With No Bridgework
Having no teeth is not only a huge worry for many patients up and down the country, but it’s another worry to be stuck without teeth while implants are healing. If you aren’t already aware, there is a period roughly three months after implants have been fitted that must be set aside simply to allow implants to heal. After this period, your bridgework can be fitted permanently.
Case Study: Getting the Smile You Deserve
Having a smile you can be proud of can change the outlook you have in social situations, and this is partly why so many implantologists do the work they do – to give patients the confidence they need.
Case Study: Will I Have an X-Ray or CT-Scan?
Providing implants to patients is an art-form for many implantologists, and in most circumstances, their professional opinion is the deciding factor in how your treatment is carried out. To be able to perform implant surgery, you must have the relevant accreditation and experience to do so.
Case Study: Could Implant Failure Happen to Me?
The nature of implants requires the bone to fuse with the artificially placed implant for a secure fit in the mouth. This may not always happen for a variety of different reasons, but if an implant case is correctly planned, executed, and monitored, the chances of this happening are greatly reduced.
