CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE TEETH IN A DAY CASESWeld One™ is a revolutionary and highly advanced new method that allows a full mouth of new teeth to rest with complete, proven stability on only four to six implants per jaw. A state-of-the-art CT scanner is used to plot the location of the implants in the jaws, these implants form a sturdy base for titanium framework and a temporary bridge to be secured on top of it. You walk out the same day with a beautiful, natural, functional smile. The more durable Weld One™ temporary restoration can last up to a year before being switched to a final bridge.
People can lose teeth for many different reasons, whether after an accident, through decay, or simply age, but the impact on their life can be traumatic. Previously, a bridge or a denture were the most popular ways to replace missing teeth, however, they are not always an ideal solution and can make eating uncomfortable or people self-conscious of their smile. Nowadays, dental implants have become a much more favoured option because this advanced treatment effectively replaces the root of a tooth, giving a more natural outcome in terms of functionality and aesthetics. Dental implants have been used for over 30 years to replace missing teeth, offering a long-term solution and a host of benefits to patients. Implant treatment can slow down bone loss, preserve healthy tissue and help maintain jaw shape. Bone loss is a problem for people who have dentures as the shape of the jaw slowly changes and the dentures need to be adjusted or re-made to fit the new shape of the jaw. Bone loss can also make a person look older since the area around the mouth can sag.
Implants are made from titanium, a material that is bio-compatible with your body and easily integrates with your bone tissue. After the implants have been placed, there is a healing period of three to six months while the implants integrate with your body tissues, then you return to the practice for the restoration to be completed. At The Staines Centre of Dental Excellence, we understand the impact that a smile can have. We would never send you out without a complete smile. Once dental implants are fully integrated into your jaw they function just as well as your own natural teeth. This means you can eat the foods you enjoy, speak and smile with confidence.
Anmol graduated from Guys, Kings and St Thomas Hospitals 15 years ago with distinction. In 2010 he set up The Staines Centre of Dental Excellence and since then has acquired a team of highly qualified and experienced general dentists and dental specialists. Having undertaken extensive post graduate studies at the Royal College of Surgeons, Anmol has been providing dental implants since 2006 and the “Teeth in a Day” treatment since 2010. He has been on courses across the world to further his knowledge in this field and recently trained in Bologna Italy to bring the Weld One technique to his patients. Anmol is keen to help nervous patients through dental treatment and is fully trained to provide intravenous sedation should it be necessary. He is a member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Society for the Advancement of anaesthesia in Dentistry, Association of Dental Implantology and the British Academy of Aesthetic Dentistry. Together with Phil Morrison, they are able to provide patients with a life changing dentistry in just one day.
Mr Henley first came to us in 2011 and over the past 5 years has had many teeth removed and new teeth added to his dentures.
After a dental examination in April 2016 he discovered that his remaining upper teeth had a poor prognosis and needed to be replaced. After a lengthy discussion with Dr Anmol Chander a treatment plan was put in place for his teeth to be replaced with an implant retained bridge.
Before placing the implants Dr Chander took a 3D CT scan to plot the placement of the implants to ensure they would be as functional as possible.
Phil Morrison our in house technician prepared a wax model of the teeth prior to the big day. An acrylic set of teeth were then made to fit over Mr Henley’s new implants.
The acrylic bridge is very natural looking. This is the temporary set of teeth that Mr Henley will wear for 6 to 12 months until his permanent bridge is fitted.
On the day of the surgery, a titanium frame is made to support the implants and the bridge and is welded in the mouth. This technique has been proven to stabilise the effectively and prevent fracture of the temporary teeth, which typically are much more durable than conventional teeth in a day prosthesis. This highly sophisticated and predictable technique has been adopted by only a handful of dentists in the UK.
The titanium frame was shaped within Mr Henley’s mouth after the implants were placed to ensure that the fit is perfect.
A full team of implant nurses and technicians are on hand throughout the day to ensure everything goes smoothly.
Once the fit of the frame is perfect, the frame is prepared to go inside the bridge.
The fit is once again checked to make sure the end result will be as natural looking as possible.
The gaps around the framework are filled in with a durable substance to ensure the final temporary bridge is as strong as possible.
The final restoration is then ready to be fitted.
The metal parts will not be visible when placed in the mouth.
Once the implants were placed and the new bridge was fitted, Dr Chander took an x-ray to show their placement and how the frame and the acrylic teeth sit in the mouth.
After a week of healing, Mr Henley came back to see Dr Chander and still had the huge smile on his face!
