Placing the implants requires a small operation. This can be carried out under local anaesthetic alone (dental injection) or with sedation. You will not feel any pain at the time, but you may feel some discomfort during the week following the surgery. This is usually due to having stitches in place, and the normal healing process. Usually the implants need to bond (integrate) with the bone after they have been placed. This takes from 3 – 6 months. If you are having one, two or three teeth replaced, you will have a temporary restoration in the meantime.

If you have complete dentures, you can wear them throughout the healing period once they have been adjusted after the surgery. It takes about 9 months from the initial assessment to the time when the artificial teeth or dentures are finally attached to the implants but a lot depends on how complicated your treatment is. Our specialists will be able to give you a timetable.
Please make sure you understand exactly what treatment is proposed, the total cost of the treatment and what the alternatives are. If you are unhappy with any of the answers then do ask for a second opinion. You will be spending a lot of time, effort and money so you must be sure that you know what you are getting at the end of treatment.

The advantage of a bridge is that it is fixed. The disadvantages include an average life expectancy of high quality conventional bridgework of 7 – 15 years. For conventional bridgework the adjacent teeth usually have to be drilled and cut down, this is not so for adhesive bridgework, but this type can de-bond and fall out. Gum and bone levels usually continue to shrink, and the bridge margins can become unsightly due to recession after a few years.
The only known disadvantage of an implant so far is the higher initial investment, and the possibility of a longer treatment timeframe.

In approximately two weeks time a short review appointment is made so the patient and the dentist can discuss the results achieved. Some patients may suffer a variable amount of sensitivity during and immediately after treatment which is to be expected but if needed a dentist will take a closer look to confirm that everything is normal and there is nothing to worry about. A special tooth paste is provided for the most sensitive moments. The sensitivity goes away when the bleaching is stopped. As the home gel is less concentrated and is more gentle to the teeth and gums home bleaching is recommended as the preferred option in most cases. In some cases combined teeth whitening can be recommended.

The colour of the teeth usually never returns to the original shade but a top up is recommended after 6,12 or18 months to keep the teeth looking good. Re-bleaching for couple of days may be necessary if a lot of coffee, tea, red wine, curry, etc is consumed.
