Dental implant bridges
Implant Bridges for multiple teeth replacement.
All on 4 Clinic: Perth Dental Implants
Dental implant bridges & implants
Dental implant bridges are a form of teeth replacement, used to replace multiple missing or diseased teeth on a lesser number of dental implants. For example, for three missing teeth, one implant at each end could support a 3-unit dental bridge, rather than having three individual implants. The benefits of a dental implant bridge compared to multiple individual implants for a space or a jaw is:
- More cost effective
- Reliance on a lesser volume of bone (so able to be applied to a wider range of cases than multiple implants where further bone is needed)
- Less need for bone grafting in some cases
- Potential for healthier bone and gum around the implants
- Potential for improved tooth and gum aesthetics.
Complete Implants - All On 4 Clinic Perth can help you with dental implants if you have missing teeth, terminal dentition or severe gum disease.
When it comes to full teeth replacement rather than just a few teeth, our “full arch” dental implant bridges using our advanced All-on-4 technique, can provide new teeth in as little as 1-4 days following just one surgery. The All-on-4 technique usually involves only 4 implants to support a whole arch/jaw of teeth (often 12 teeth only four implants). For some patients, other methods of full mouth implant bridgework may be more suitable, and we do perform other full mouth implant methods, with both immediate implants (on the same day as tooth removal) and delayed implants (in missing tooth sites) methods. This is based on detailed 3-D assessment and planning suitable to your case.
Dental implant bridges vs dentures
If you have experienced loose partial or full dentures, you’ll know that a removable solution for teeth replacement is not always ideal. You may feel that the discomfort of poor-fitting dentures, or having multiple missing teeth, can impact the quality of your bite, your speech and your smile. This is where a solution based on permanent new implant teeth can make a big difference.
Am I suitable for a dental implant bridge?
To find out if you are suitable for a teeth replacement treatment with dental implant bridgework, we recommend you make an appointment at our Subiaco clinic. We will assess and diagnose the condition of your bite, smile, gums and jaw bone, and visualise potential treatment options including dental implants.
Depending on your requirements and preferences, and based on a clear diagnosis, we can then work out a treatment plan and plan for your new, hygienic and healthy new smile.
