Other Missing Teeth Treatment Options

In addition to dental implants, we offer alternative options for missing teeth in Worsley, such as bridges and dentures. These treatments are designed to replace the missing teeth, restore your smile, and improve chewing.

Bridges

A bridge is a fixed dental restoration that fills the gap between teeth. It is anchored to the surrounding teeth, providing a strong and stable option for tooth replacement.

Dentures

Dentures are removable appliances that are used to replace missing teeth. Dentures are custom-made to fit your mouth, providing a comfortable and natural-looking solution for missing teeth. There are various different types of dentures such as cobalt chrome, flexible dentures and acrylic dentures. Our dentists will be able to advise you on the appropriate options for you and show you examples of these at your appointment.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Natural Look and Feel

Dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth. They blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, providing a natural and beautiful smile.

Enhanced Comfort and Stability

Dental implants help to eliminate the discomfort and instability often associated with removable dentures, providing a secure and comfortable solution.

Improved Chewing and Speaking

Dental implants help to restore biting and chewing capabilities, allowing you to enjoy your favourite foods and speak clearly and confidently.

Preservation of Jawbone Health

Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining the integrity of your facial structure. Our dental hygienist in Worsley will help design and provide a programme of hygiene visits to maintain your implants and surrounding jawbone.

No Impact on Adjacent Teeth

Unlike traditional bridges, dental implants do not require the alteration or support of adjacent healthy teeth, preserving their natural structure.

Long-lasting Solution

Dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance, making them a durable and cost-effective tooth replacement option.

Our Implant Treatment Process

At Dental Facial Artisan, we follow a meticulous and personalised approach to ensure successful dental implant treatments in Worsley. Our process involves:

Comprehensive Consultation:

During your initial consultation, our implant specialist will conduct a thorough examination of your oral health, discuss your treatment goals, and address any concerns or questions you may have.

Treatment Planning

We will all work together with your implantologist to develop a customised treatment and maintenance plan tailored to your needs and preferences. This plan will outline the number of implants required, the type of restoration, and the timeline for your treatment.

Implant Placement

Our skilled implantologist will place the implants using advanced techniques and precision-guided technology for optimal results.

Healing Period

After implant placement, a healing period is necessary to allow the implants to fuse with the surrounding bone through osseointegration. This typically takes a few months, and a suitable temporary option will be provided to you during this stage.

Restoration Placement

Once the implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, our dentists will attach custom-made dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or implant-supported dentures, to complete your smile transformation.

Maintenance

During the planning stages of your treatment the importance of maintenance visits will be discussed. In order to ensure your implant treatment is maintained in the best possible condition for as long as possible, we will provide you with a comprehensive plan of homecare and schedule maintenance visits with our hygienist.

Lasting Dental Implants

Dental implants are the considered the gold standard in modern dentistry when replacing missing teeth. Dental implants are titanium posts that are placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a stable foundation for dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or implant-supported dentures. Our skilled implantologist will carefully assess your oral health and jawbone structure to determine the most suitable implant placement and restoration options for you. We have an experienced team at Dental Facial Artisan who will assess your needs and provide the best treatment plan to meet your requirements.

Dental implants are considered a specialised type of treatment, and so we will ensure that our team at Dental Facial Artisan always includes a specialist implantologist either at our practice or at a specialist referral center.
