Dental Implant Clinic in Milton Keynes
Dental Implants in Milton Keynes
At Northlight Dental Implant Clinic, we provide dental implant solutions tailored to each patient’s unique requirements, whether you’re dealing with a single missing tooth or in need of a full arch replacement. Our single dental implants are the ideal solution for those who have lost or are about to lose a single tooth, ensuring a seamless blend with your natural teeth.
If several adjacent teeth are missing, our multiple dental implant solution comes into play. This involves replacing each tooth individually with a dedicated implant or connecting two or more implants together, depending on the patient’s specific circumstance.
Dental Implant FAQs
If you are fit and healthy, don’t smoke and correctly maintain your implant it could last a lifetime. The success rates for dental implants are exceptionally high (over 98% over the first 10 years) but we do recommend that you see us and your hygienist regularly to make sure it is being looked after the right way.
The prosthesis (the ‘tooth bit’ of the implant) may eventually wear and need replacement but this is usually after a number of years and is much cheaper than the initial implant treatment.
The exact treatment that you will require does vary depending on your clinical circumstance. However, the usual timeline is something like the following:
Phase 1: This is where we get to know you and your specific needs. We carefully analyse your specific clinical circumstances and work out the best way to proceed. Usually x-rays, models and photographs and taken to help us provide an accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plan.
Phase 2: This is the ‘surgical phase’ and involves the placement of the implant, the removal of stitches a few days later. The implant is then allowed to heal and the surrounding bone fuses to it, a process that normally takes 3 months. We sometimes ‘bury’ the implant under the gum to protect it during the healing phase. If this is case a second very minor surgical procedure is required to allow us to access the implant.
Phase 3: This part of the treatment is a bit like having a conventional crown made. We take impressions of your mouth that are sent to a laboratory for the construction of your tooth or teeth.
Phase 4: This is where we review your new tooth or teeth and make sure everything is going well.
If you have a tooth that needs to be removed, an implant can be placed straight after the tooth is extracted. And, if you are worried that you will be left with a space, often we are able to fit a temporary crown onto the implant on the same day. This means you will walk out the practice with a new tooth in position.
You will of course be provided with much more information regarding your options at your consultation visit.
Full Arch Dental Implants
In cases where an entire arch of teeth is missing, we offer full arch dental implant solutions. This comprehensive dental implant treatment, sometimes referred to as “All-on-4” replaces an entire arch of teeth, restoring functionality and aesthetics. At Northlight Dental in Milton Keynes, we ensure your new smile looks as natural and feels as comfortable as possible.
Our full arch dental implants are not just about restoring teeth, they’re about bringing back your confidence and quality of life.
