A tooth may need root canal treatment when the nerve inside becomes damaged beyond repair. This is often when pain is persistent and cannot be resolved in a reversible way 🦷

Another common situation is when the nerve has already died and an infection develops around the root tip.

Root canal treatment helps to remove the source of infection, allowing the area to heal and the tooth to be preserved.

With the right care, this can relieve discomfort and support the long-term health of the tooth 💙

A question we’re often asked is how it’s possible to have teeth placed on implants on the same day. The key to this is careful planning.

Before any treatment begins, we carry out detailed data collection to understand your teeth, your bite, and where your new smile needs to be.

This planning stage allows everything to be mapped out in advance, so the procedure itself can be carried out in a smooth and efficient way.

In many cases, this means implants can be placed and a temporary restoration fitted on the same day, helping you leave with a confident, functional smile 🦷

Can you spot which tooth has been replaced with a dental implant? 🦷✨⁠

One of our favourite things to hear is “Which tooth did you work on?” because it means the restoration looks as natural and seamless as possible.⁠

In this smile, the tooth in the top centre is actually a dental implant placed by Dr. Victoria Holden over 10 years ago 💙

A wonderful example of how natural and long-lasting implant treatment can be with careful planning and ongoing care.⁠

The journey for all-on-four treatment begins with an initial consultation, where we take detailed scans to assess the bone and plan your treatment carefully.

This planning stage allows us to understand exactly what’s needed and ensure everything is mapped out in advance 💙

The treatment itself can then be surprisingly efficient. In many cases, implant placement and a temporary bridge can be completed within a couple of hours.

This means you can leave with a secure, functional set of teeth on the same day, following a well-planned and predictable process ✨

We like to make visits a little more fun for children with Richard's “Spot the Animals” game, a simple way to help them feel relaxed and engaged during their appointment 🦷✨

For younger patients, creating a familiar and interactive experience can act as a gentle distraction, helping to take the focus away from treatment and support a more positive, comfortable visit 💙

All-on-four treatment uses dental implants, small titanium posts, which are placed carefully into the jawbone to act as secure foundations.

These implants support a full set of replacement teeth, often in the form of a fixed bridge, offering an alternative to a removable denture 🦷

With the right planning and approach, this allows for a stable, comfortable solution that restores both function and appearance.

The aim is to create a smile that feels natural, secure, and easy to live with day to day 💙

All-on-four implant treatment can be a great alternative for patients who find dentures loose or uncomfortable.

In many cases, dentures may move or feel less secure, which can affect both confidence and day to day comfort.

This treatment offers a fixed solution, using implants to support a full set of teeth that stay securely in place.

With the right care, this can help restore stability, improve function, and allow you to feel more confident in your smile.

If you’d like to explore whether this option could be suitable for you, we’re always happy to talk you through it 🦷💙

Some patients lose teeth due to gum disease, and dental implants can be a reliable way to restore both function and confidence 🦷

As part of the process, any infected tissue is carefully removed before placing the implants, helping to create a healthy foundation for long-term success.

After the implants and final restoration are in place, ongoing care becomes especially important. Implants can be affected by gum disease in a similar way to natural teeth, so regular maintenance and good daily hygiene are key.

With the right care, this helps support the longevity of your implants and keeps your smile healthy over time 💙

An all-on-four implant treatment involves placing four implants into the jawbone to support a full set of upper or lower teeth. These implants act as stable foundations, allowing a restoration to be securely fitted on top and restore both function and appearance.

This treatment is often carried out in a single day, with the procedure typically taking one to two hours. On the same day, a temporary set of teeth is placed, made from strong medical-grade materials, so you can leave with a complete smile.

As the implants heal and integrate over time, this temporary restoration is then carefully replaced with a long-term, final set of teeth.

If you’d like to understand whether this treatment could be suitable for you, we’re always happy to talk you through it 🦷💙
