Getting Your Confidence Back With Full Jaw Implants
If all of your teeth are missing, then you understand how difficult it can be to manage with a full denture. You may need to choose soft foods to chew and be careful when you are laughing that the denture does not move or fall out. A Full Jaw Implant Bridge is a permanent solution and completely replaces your denture forever. An implant bridge is fitted over implant fixtures, and it is kept in permanently, and you will brush and floss around it in a similar way as when you had natural teeth.
The Planning Process
Free Consultation

Your free consultation is with our highly experienced Implant Surgeon, Dr. Adam Glassford. At this appointment, you will be able to discuss fully your concerns. He will assess your mouth, bone, and gums and advise you about replacing your missing tooth with an implant. All of your questions will be answered.
3D CT Scan

A 3D CT scan will be taken to assess your bone levels and allow precise planniing of your treatment. It is Gold Standard practice to provide a CT scan for implants, so that the position of your nerves and blood vessels can be precisely assessed for safe surgery.
Planning the Aesthetics

During treatment planning, your whole smile will be looked at in relation to your lips, bone, and facial structure. The planned colour and shape of your new teeth will be discussed.
The Implant Placement Process
Implant Surgery

Several dental implants can be fitted in 1-2 hours under local anaesthetic, normally under sedation. A temporary denture is usually fitted immediately so you can continue life as normal. You may need painkillers after surgery. The implants will integrate naturally with your existing bone making it strong and secure.
Preparing the Implant Bridge

The gum is then normally allowed to heal for up to 12 weeks. After this time, detailed records are taken, the colour chosen and the bite checked. This information is sent to our world-class team of ceramists and used to construct the Full Jaw Bridge.
Fitting the Implant Bridge

The colour and layered translucency of the porcelain is created by hand and is unique for every patient. At your following appointment, the new bridge is fitted securely onto the titanium implants.
