Where the gap spans 2-3 teeth, a dental implant bridge may be required.

This is where an implant is placed at either end of the gap, allowed to heal and anchor to the bone. Once anchored, the crowns or bridge are made to connect the two implants, thus restoring the gap.

These options are suitable for patients who are unable to tolerate dentures and still have some of their natural teeth present.

Benefits of implant bridges

  • Prevents bone loss.
  • Great stability.
  • Helps the function of the teeth.
  • Long-lasting results.
  • Natural-looking results.
  • Improved social confidence.
  • When you visit Eastbury Dental, you will come in for your initial consultation with Dr Shah and discuss your smile concerns and queries.
  • If the gap has existed for over 3 months, a CT scan will be completed in-house. A plan will then be sent over within 48 hours to confirm your bespoke treatment plan.
  • We will book you in for your surgery date at your convenience, with sedation being an optional extra.
  • Implant placement.
  • You will have a review 2 weeks after surgery to check how things are going and get the stitches removed.
  • You will either have implant exposure or a digital measurement of your bridge with Dr Shah.
  • Fitting of your new bridge!

Post-implant advice

We recommend a soft diet initially (5-7 days) as you will have a new set of teeth fixed, and it will take time for your mouth to settle and find a comfortable position for eating.

Maintenance

Once your implants have been fitted, it is essential to maintain a good oral hygiene routine to ensure they last for as long as possible.

Your dentist at Eastbury Dental will advise you on how best to care for the new implants. This will include brushing and flossing around the implant using interdental brushes or Superfloss (recommended) twice daily.

Periodic cleaning with Curasept is advised. You will have an implant review visit after the first year. You will also come in every 4-6 months for check-ups and hygiene visits, depending on your risk factors. A lot of our patients decide to join our membership plan for ongoing maintenance, Denplan.
