There’s no waiting period; replace missing teeth immediately with dental implants in one hour

All-on-4

All-on-Four is a highly affordable solution for anyone wishing to replace their denture with a fixed arch of teeth. With All-on-Four, just four dental implants are required to secure a complete arch of lower teeth, while five to six dental implants are generally preferred to secure a full arch of upper teeth.

• This treatment requires a highly skilled, experienced, dental implantologist. Before the surgery, the implant placement must be meticulously planned. The key to designing a full arch of teeth is pre-planning using three-dimensional X-ray (CT SCAN), Digital teeth position, and Guided Implant Surgery.
• The main advantage of having All-On-Four is that patients who have lost a lot of bone and would otherwise require extensive surgeries to rebuild their bone don’t have to undergo those procedures. By angling the last implants, you can avoid the sinus in the upper jaw and avoid the nerve in the lower Jaw.

Single Tooth Implant

A single tooth implant is an ideal choice for replacing a missing tooth. Treatment is very straightforward, and an appointment is typically relatively short. Even though only a single tooth is being replaced we always carry out the same extensive diagnostic tests.

• Having adequate bone width and height is critical to ensure proper tooth size.
• A temporary tooth can be placed only at the time of surgery if the implant is secured tight and usually not for molar teeth.
• Single implant is more cost-effective than choosing a bridge.
• Implant surgery can be performed under local anaesthetic and requires a small incision.

Multiple Tooth Implants

Multiple teeth implants can support multiple missing teeth next to each other or a failing bridge extending from three to five teeth. A minimum of two implants will be placed to support 3 or 4 units of teeth, making it an economical long-term solution for replacing multiple missing teeth.

• The process takes between three months if adequate bone height and width of bone are present.
• We provide a temporary prosthesis so you can eat and normally talk during healing.
• A very reliable way to replace missing teeth and a great alternative for loose and uncomfortable partial dentures.
• Must be adequate room for the dental laboratory to fabricate the bridge so it can function correctly.
