    Dental implants for patients who have experienced bone loss

    Sufficient bone density of the jaw is required for dental implants to be successful, without it the jaw will not be able to support the implant. Patients who have experienced bone loss will still be able to receive the treatment, however, an additional procedure may need to be completed to strengthen the jaw bone. This is achieved through adding bone usually at the time the implant is placed.

    If the bone has resorbed, bone can be placed in a separate procedure prior to the implants being placed. With the advances in modern technology, dental implants are suitable to almost all patients.

    Bone Graft

    When the jaw bone is missing bone density and volume, we will rebuild and strengthen the jaw bone around the implants by adding bone.

    We have a choice of bone to use:

    • Bovine – demineralised cow bone, which is the most commonly use
    • Synthetic – man made particulate , suitable for vegans
    • Allograft – the patients own bone , taken from other parts of the mouth.

    Sinus Lift

    Sometimes the upper jaw bone does not have sufficient bone density or volume to support implants. Unlike a bone graft, this process does not rebuild the jaw bone, rather adds bone volume in the Sinus space. This procedure is common and can sometimes take place at the same time of implant placement, but it’s usually carried out separately.

    Different types of dental Implants

    Everyone’s teeth are unique, meaning everyone we treat will have different needs. At Revitalise we offer a full range of dental implant types to suit your own unique dental treatment plan.

    Single Tooth Implant

    When you only have one tooth missing this can be replaced with an individual implant. This is the best treatment option available to not only restore the functionality of the missing tooth, but to support the health of the neighbouring teeth and preserve the jaw bone.

    Implant Supported Bridge

    You may have heard of a dental bridge before as the term is also used with treatment related to dentures. With an implant supported bridge we will fill multiple gaps in your mouth with minimal surgically placed implants. For example, if you have three teeth missing in a row you will not have an implant placed in the middle, only within the neighbouring gaps.

    Full Set

    Sometimes all of your upper or lower teeth will need replacing. This will be achieved with a full set. Even if you have a few teeth remaining the best option may be to remove them. Although most adults have 32 teeth this does not mean you will need to have 32 implants surgically placed. Lower jaws need a minimum of two implants and the upper jaw requires a minimum of four. It’s not uncommon for the upper jaw to require more implants due to the fact that the bone is softer compared to the lower jaw.

    How can a missing tooth impact my health?

    Dental implants in Cornwall come under restorative dentistry, a type of dentistry that is geared towards improving the appearance and function of the teeth. However, there are a number of problems which can arise from tooth loss.

    Speech

    Did you know that your teeth are not just a tool for eating? They also aid with speech and a missing tooth can make it harder to pronounce specific words. This is because teeth help control the airflow in and out of the mouth. When there is not enough friction from a fast airflow, strident sounds are harder to pronounce.

    Eating

    The most well known function of the teeth is their ability to help us digest food through chewing. When we have teeth missing, especially in the back of the mouth, it becomes a more difficult task to break down food effectively. Depending on how many teeth are missing the ability to eat solid foods could be limited.

    Front teeth are sharp and have long single roots to take the lever forces of cutting and tearing food. Back teeth are flat and have two or three roots to spread the forces of crushing and grinding food.

    If you lose back teeth the front teeth have to overwork to chew food effectively and they are not designed to take these forces and overloading can create failure of the front teeth in time.

    That is why it is very important to ensure there are no gaps at the back of your mouth.

    If you lose teeth it certainly affects how you eat and what you eat.

    If you can’t chew effectively, the food enters the digestive system in lumps and your body has to deal with this. Heartburn and indigestion are common and the fact that the food has not been chewed will take longer for it to be broken down.

    Food choice is also affected. With the loss of teeth, you could avoid certain foods and doing so eliminate some food groups.

    Jaw Bone Loss

    Teeth support the bone of the jaw through stimulation of chewing and biting, think of it as an exercise for your jaw. When we lose teeth we also lose the stimulation from eating. As a result, the jaw will begin to waste away or become weaker. Dental implants are the best solution for ensuring your jaw bone remains active and healthy as they replicate the function of natural teeth.

    Teeth Alignment

    Although our teeth are rooted into the jawbone, without a neighbouring tooth the ones remaining on either side of the gap may begin to move. Overtime more of the teeth will become misaligned and become crooked. Besides the cosmetic concern, this can lead to a range of issues including jaw pain, headache and the inability to bite correctly.

    How much do dental implants cost?

    The cost of dental implants is heavily influenced by the clinical situation, you can expect a single front tooth restored to cost £3,500 and back teeth £3,250. However, a complete jaw fixed with implants will cost from £16,600.

    Although dental implants might seem to come with a hefty price tag, the investment outweighs the cost in improving one’s quality of life, function, confidence, and appearance. At Revitalise we will only recommend dental implants if we feel they are the best treatment option.

    What are the benefits of dental implants

    They Look and Feel Natural

    Dental implants are not only designed to replicate the look of your natural teeth but also the function.

    They Maintain Your Face Structure

    As the jaw bone weakens due to tooth loss the structure and shape of your face begins to change. Dental implants will not only maintain the jaw bone but can also strengthen it.

    They are Fixed

    Unlike dentures which are removable false teeth, dental implants remain securely in place without the need of an adhesive or clasps

    They are a Long-term Solution

    Dental implants can last over 20 years with the correct maintenance.

    Offer a Long-term solution with Maintenance

    Dental implants are designed to last long term without the need of on-going maintenance with your dentist. However, just like your adult teeth, they will last as long as you care for them. You will need to look after your dental implants the same way you would your natural teeth.

    You may find certain areas difficult too clean to begin with. Our dental hygienist will support you with techniques and educate you in how to maintain your oral health to its optimum level. Correctly cleaning your dental implants is crucial to avoiding issues that you would get with your natural teeth…such as gum disease.

    What to expect beyond your consultation

    Once you have had your consultation, and if dental implants are considered to be an option for you, we will book a time with our expert dentists. After taking and reporting on radiographic images of the jaw bone to access the volume and density of bone availability, he will invite you back and present his findings and treatment options open to you.

    Simon will explain different options, timings, costings, risks and benefits. There is no obligation at this point and should you wish to proceed, we will present a detailed schedule which we would ask you to read, ask any questions and all being well as you to sign a consent to the treatment.

    The routine process follows

    • CT Scans
    • The diagnostic planning of tooth and implant positioning
    • Placement of the implant into your jaw
    • Healing and osseointegration
    • Fitting of your new artificial teeth onto the implant
    • X-Rays
    • Regular Hygiene Maintenance

    Frequently Asked Questions

We only use respected dental implant systems that we believe will deliver the best possible product. Our experienced team are continually expanding their skills and knowledge to ensure they remain up to date with advancements in the industry, to discover new and better ways to treat you.

    How much do dental implants cost?

    Costs vary with each case. Finance options are available along with scheduled payment plans.

    Can anyone get dental implants?

    In most cases, anyone can get dental implants. However, there are a number of situations where another treatment option might be more effective. For dental implants to be successful it’s important that the density and volume of the bone is sufficient to support the implants. With new technology and techniques, we can provide implants to many patients who have been told that they don’t have enough bone. Ask us about “CopaSky” implants .

    Underlying medical conditions can also reduce the success rate of dental implants, particularly illnesses which affect healing. Diabetic patients are prone to poor blood circulation which affects the bodies ability to heal wounds quickly. With dental implants the healing process is a longer than normal and success rates can be reduced.

    Other health conditions such as osteoporosis and leukaemia can affect the success rate of the treatment as well as those who smoke tobacco. Individual assessment would be needed to determine if dental implants are an advisable treatment option.

    How long do dental implants last?

    Dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution to tooth loss, meaning they can last 20/30 years or more However, there are a number of factors that can affect their longevity.

    • How well you take care of your dental implants. Brushing and flossing twice a day, sticking to a healthy diet and regular checkups at your dentist will impact how long your new teeth last.
    • Injury or damage. Your dental implants are prone to damage just like your natural teeth, avoiding unnecessary uses such as opening bottles with your mouth will prevent damage or injury.
    • Your dental implantologist. An experienced and skilled dentist can make a huge difference regarding the longevity of your new teeth. Here at Revitalise, our dental implantologists have over 15 years of experience successfully placing 1000s of implants.
    • Your overall health. Future health complications that might arise can unfortunately affect their longevity.

    How long do I have to look after my dental implants?

    You will look after your dental implants the same way you would your natural teeth. Neglecting the cleaning of them can result in bad breath and a build-up of plaque and biofilm, leading to further problems later. You might find certain areas difficult to clean to begin with, but our dental hygienist will support you with techniques to maintain your oral health after your treatment.

    Visiting your dentist regularly is important to ensure your new smile lasts. At Revitalise we can offer a professional cleaning of your dental implants, using “Airflow” which is a warm jet of water and very fine beads to eliminate the build-up of the biofilm which is associated with bad breath and gum disease.

    Will I need to have bone grafting?

    In some cases, yes. When there is insufficient bone volume to support dental implants, bone grafting will ensure the treatment can be achieved successfully. That said we can now use “CopaSky” implants which require less bone volume so if you have ever been told you don’t have enough bone, or you require a bone graft procedure, we now have a solution for you.

    Revitalise Dental Centre we have an onsite state-of-the-art laboratory, meaning all the work can be achieved in-house. This results in a faster turnaround time and ensures that the material used will be of the highest quality.

    If my tooth is removed will I be left with a gap?

    The answer is no. We will never leave you with a gap.

    It is possible to have an implant placed immediately after a tooth has been extracted. However, in some cases, the gum will need time to heal before we can proceed with inserting the implant. We understand that this might be undesirable and might leave you feeling embarrassed. At Revitalise we want you to be completely happy throughout the whole process and we can offer a temporary solution to fill the gap during the healing process.

    Can you replace all of my teeth with implants?

    Yes, we can and our team is experienced in creating dental implants that look and feel natural. There is more good news, even if you are having all your teeth replaced there’s no need to have one implant per tooth. Meaning we do not need to surgically place 32 implants. Your lower jaws need a minimum of two implants and the upper jaw requires a minimum of four.

    Can implants help with dentures?

    Yes, we have a range of treatment options available in which we use implants to support dentures. Some people have difficulty wearing and keeping their dentures securely in place, resulting in a poor user experience. Implants can resolve this problem providing incredible security and comfort.

    Both, removable implant dentures and fixed dentures can also provide support to the facial structure in patients who have lost bone density in the jaw.

    Do dental implants hurt?

    No, you will not feel any pain during the procedure, it will just be slightly uncomfortable. You may experience some swelling and possible bruising after the procedure but this will pass quickly and this does not happen to everyone.

    Will I be awake and will I hear anything?

    Dental implants are a routine procedure carried out under local anaesthesia. Some patients prefer to have conscious sedation. This can help alleviate anxiety before and during treatment.

    How long will it take for me to get my smile?

    To replace a single tooth with a single implant the whole process will take 12 weeks. If further surgical procedures are required to enhance implant support, this can extend treatment period up to 1 year.
