Dental Implants and crowns

Case Study

This patient initially arrived for an emergency appointment at Dental Smiles Takeley with a loose dental crown, but it was also discovered that they had very worn teeth and a number of missing back teeth.

The dental implants and crowns that they had fitted gave a final result that allowed this patient to smile again without needing a denture.

What are dental Implants?

Dental Implants are small medical grade titanium replacements for missing teeth. They have porcelain dental crowns attached to restore the appearance and function of the teeth

WHAT OTHER OPTIONS WERE THERE IN THIS CASE

Another option would be to have a denture to replace the missing back teeth but this would be much less stable than the fixed in dental implants

HOW LONG DID THE TREATMENT TAKE?

This case took 9 months to complete from start to finish including the dental crowns and dental implants.

HOW ARE IMPLANTS PLANNED

Implants are planned using 3d x-rays (CBCT scans) this allows precise planning of the implant position to ensure the best outcome. Dental Smiles Takeley have a CBCT scanner to take these special x-rays.

WERE THERE TEMPORARY TEETH?

There were some temporary crowns at the front of the mouth and also a temporary denture for the back teeth while the implants healed into place before the crowns could be attached.

How do you look after implants?

Implants need brushing and flossing just like real teeth to keep the gums around the implants healthy. The dental hygienist also can clean around implants using special instruments. It is important to have regular dental check ups to make sure the mouth and implants are healthy.

WHAT WERE THE PAYMENT OPTIONS?

To just pay as you go at each appointment or with a payment plan to spread the cost over 48 months.
