This lady came to us after losing her upper front bridge which was there for nearly 25 years. Her remaining teeth were not restorable due to poor gum health.
A CBCT scan was taken, which showed adequate bone support for dental implants. We extracted all the remaining teeth and her smile was restored with implant-supported all-on-X bridges. She was very happy with the improvement in her smile and chewing ability.
All-on-X implant bridges are a great option to restore the function and appearance for someone suffering with multiple loose teeth or with no teeth at all.
Extractions followed by immediate placements of dental implants can reduce the shrinkage of the jaw bone and the fact that one can go home the same day with some decent looking provisional teeth makes this option attractive.
Exceptional home oral hygiene measures are essential for long term success. Our hygienists here at Blyton Dental can help you with the regular maintenance of implant bridges
