Single and Multiple Dental Implants Nottingham

Implant treatment is generally painless, as it is carried out under anaesthetic, and sedation can be used for nervous patients. We’re happy to arrange a meeting with patients who have already had implant treatment so that you have a better understanding of what is going to happen and so you can have any questions you might have answered by people who have already been through the process.

Have a watch of our video where Dental Surgeon Beatriz Sanchez, at The Campbell Clinic Nottingham, discusses what you would experience during dental implant treatment.

The time required for individual treatment plans relates to the individual patient and is assessed fully with a full clinical assessment. In some cases, teeth can be extracted, implants can be placed and a restoration can be placed on the same day. This has to be very carefully assessed and the risks and benefits discussed carefully with each individual patient.

This is not suitable for all cases.

Other times, placement of a crown on top of a healed dental implant can happen as short as 6-8 weeks after surgery, but in other cases and individual circumstances this can be up to 3 months.

The best way to assess your suitability for implant treatment is to discuss this with a well-qualified and experienced team. This can be discussed with a treatment coordinator in the first instance, but a full clinical assessment, taking into consideration your oral/dental health and overall medical health, together with your personal circumstances are required to decide whether you’re suitable for treatment.

Suitability for treatment then becomes a discussion between your clinician and yourself to assess the risks and benefits of the treatment overall.

Although dental implants can be a fantastic method for replacing missing teeth, they are not necessarily for everyone. There are many options for replacing missing teeth for individual patients. These are generally bespoke (specifically to the individual) which is why it is so important to be assessed by a well-trained and experienced clinician.

It is rarely necessary in larger cases to place a single dental implant for each individual tooth. The number of implants required can be discussed with your clinician as all treatment should be an open and honest discussion between patient and clinician, discussing the risks and benefits associated.

We are able to offer a 10-year guarantee on some of our implant treatments. Colin Campbell has very carefully analysed the success and survival of the dental implants he has placed over the past 15 years and knows implant survival rate over 10 years is in the region of 96-97%. This gives you the confidence to be able to apply a 10-year guarantee on certain levels of our implant treatments at the practice.

Research shows that dental implants should be cared for very carefully by a well-qualified team following the provision of care. If you wish to retain your implants for a long period of time-specific hygiene treatment, x-rays and oral health instruction should be carried out regularly following treatment; the frequency of this varies depending on individual patient requirements and the complexity of treatment provided.
