PATIENT STORY · ALL-ON-4 SAME-DAY TEETH
Keith's new smile
Keith, a retired university lecturer from the Sunderland and Washington area, had lost so many back teeth that he was living on soup, noodles and rice, and eating out with friends had become a worry. He didn't want removable dentures, so he chose a fixed full-arch solution with our implant team.
|
“
I could have spent my money on a Caribbean cruise, but I'd rather be able to sink my teeth into an apple now and again.
“I didn't feel under pressure… Life-changing, I would say. It's really given me confidence to socialise again.”
Keith · All-on-4 full-arch implants with Dr Bilal Ahmad. Individual results vary.

THE 60-SECOND DENTAL TIP Looking after your implantsImplants can't decay, but the gums and bone around them still need care. A few simple habits help them last. |
1 Brush twice a day Use a soft brush and pay extra attention where the teeth meet the gum. |
|
2 Clean underneath daily Interdental brushes or a water flosser reach under bridges and full-arch teeth. We'll show you which suits you. |
|
3 Keep your reviews Regular check-ups and hygiene visits let us spot early gum problems around implants. |
|
4 Tell us early Bleeding, swelling, looseness or soreness? Call us rather than waiting for your next visit. Smoking also raises the risk of problems. |
