Single Tooth Dental Implants
Dental implants replace tooth roots in the mouth. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth and can aid in the prevention of bone loss in the jaw.
Implant Supported Bridges
An implant supported bridge is a restorative solution for spaces where three or more adjacent teeth are missing. This restoration typically requires two implants to support the porcelain bridge. The bridge provides a functional and aesthetic replacement for a patient’s natural teeth.
IMPLANT SUPPORTED REMOVABLE DENTURE
For patients who are missing many or all of their teeth, implant supported dentures may be an alternative to traditional dentures. This solution requires the placement of two or more implants. In order to replace a full arch denture, a minimum of four implants is generally recommended. Eligibility for this solution is dependent upon a number of factors, with jaw bone density being one of the most significant determining factors.
Traditional dentures rely on an acrylic base that sits directly on the gums, held in place by a paste or adhesive. Using implants as supports for dentures allows for a smaller and more comfortable base and less shifting of the prosthesis during use.
Implants can support both full and partial dentures as well as removable dentures. If a removable denture is selected, the denture will “snap” on to the implant rather than requiring the use of denture paste or adhesives. Removable dentures can be taken out for cleaning at night.
All on 6- ProArch
All-on dental implant procedures are cutting-edge approaches in dental technology. As their names suggest, All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implant systems involve surgically placing either 4 or 6 titanium implants in a strategic pattern inside the bones of the jaw to act as secure anchors for a fully-artificial top and/or bottom dental prosthesis.

Consultation and Digital Planning
The dental implant process begins with a thorough consultation, during which your oral health is assessed, and a treatment plan is developed. This may include 3D imaging, dental impressions, and discussions about the most suitable type of dental implant for your specific needs.
Bone Grafting (if necessary)
In some cases, patients may require a bone graft to ensure sufficient bone volume to support the dental implant. This can be done using various materials, such as bone from another part of the body, donor bone, or synthetic bone substitutes. The bone grafting procedure typically takes several months to heal before the implant surgery can proceed, or in some cases can be done at the same time as when the implant is placed.
Implant Surgery
The implant is then carefully inserted into the jawbone done under local anaesthetic. The healing process, called osseointegration, typically takes between 2 to 4 months, during which time the implant fuses with the bone, creating a strong and stable foundation for the dental restoration. During this phase, you may have a temporary restoration in place.
