Dental implant smile journey

Serving patients throughout Aylesbury and Buckinghamshire

The key to successful dental implant treatment is in the planning stages. At your initial consultation our implant dentist, our dentist, will assess your oral health, discuss your case and consider all of the implant treatment options available to you before issuing a treatment plan.

Dental implant treatment will typically take between 3 to 6 months to complete and include the following steps at Temple Square Dental:

  1. Consultation – our dentist will start by listening to your requirements and address your questions as well as recommending which options will best suit you. During this appointment our dentist will also conduct an assessment of your mouth, gums and bone structure using xrays and scans. This will assess the bone support for a dental implant as sometimes it is necessary to carry out a bone graft or sinus lift to ensure we have the appropriate foundation into which we can securely place the implants.
  2. Pre-treatment – Patients must have healthy gums and enough jawbone to support dental implants. At your initial consultation our dentist will use x-rays and scans to establish if pre-treatment is required and will explain this further.

    Some patients may need to see a hygienist for a course of treatment to ensure their gums are strong and healthy before the dental implant process can begin.

    our dentist will also check that there is sufficient bone for an implant to be placed successfully at this initial consultation. If there is insufficient bone you may need to need pre-treatment before your dental implants can be placed. This may include oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting, bone expansion or sinus lifts. You may have to wait several months for this to heal prior to starting your dental implant journey.
  3. Implant placement – Once you are dentally fit and have healthy bone structure, you are ready for your implant placement. The process and length of appointment will vary depending on your individual requirements and complexity. our dentist will advise in advance what to expect throughout this appointment. You will be given a local anaesthetic to ensure that you are comfortable throughout the process.

    With All on 4 treatments (known as ‘same day smile’), the final replacement teeth are fitted the same day with out the need to wait for healing and integration.
  4. Healing and integration - The titanium post (dental implant) needs to be left for a short time for the bone and gum to heal around it before it can be used to support a new tooth. Once that happens, the titanium becomes one with the bone around it… a key stage is known as biological integration.

    This stage can take between 3 and 6 months. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, it provides a strong and stable platform for the new crown, bridge or denture.
  5. Restoring - Once your implant integrates with the bone, we are then able to restore the implant with replacement teeth. This stage is carried out over 2 appointments. At the first appointment we will take scans/impressions of the position of the implants in relation to your other teeth and structures, so that the crown/bridge/denture can be carefully crafted to best blend with your natural smile.

    At the second appointment our dentist will then securely fix your crown, bridge or denture to the dental implant. Most teeth attached to implants are fixed permanently and can only be removed by your dentist. However, if you have removable dentures attached to the implants, then you’ll be able to take them out for cleaning. In all cases, your dentist will ensure that your replacement teeth fit properly, match your other teeth and feel comfortable. Once in place, they will look, feel and function as a natural tooth.
  6. Aftercare - Implants are an excellent option and investment in your health. With the right aftercare, they can last for a lifetime.

    For such a long-term success, taking care of your implant is important. As with natural teeth, implants require the same regular check-ups and conscientious oral hygiene. Once you follow these guidelines, your implants can be maintained for decades.

Absolutely positive and best experience I ever had with a dental surgery. During February/March I travelled the UK and - Murphy‘s law - suffered dental problems 1) during my travels, 2) even worse on a Friday and 3) while needing to leave Aylesbury on Saturday for my next destination. Thanks to the supernice and friendly reception staff I got an immediate appointment on a Saturday! Not only was I happy to get help, even better was my experience with dentist Dr. Prab Sandhu: fast help and examination, very experienced and trustworthy, takes time to explain (no stress on the patient), straightforward, clear and friendly communication, calm atmosphere. Overall summary: + I felt welcome as new patient without an appointment + uncomplicated digital administration processes around registration, invoicing, payment, xrays, diagnostic report + little waiting time + trustworthy, experienced and friendly dentist + friendly staff + pleasant medical practice rooms There is one minus I indeed consider very negative: - They do not operate a medical practice in my home country Germany ;-) Thanks and best regards from Germany

The dentist James is highly skilled, did a great job fixing my teeth. Very personable, keeping me involved of what he was doing. Kept asking if I was OK alongside his assistants as they changed on different visits. Even before that, the receptionist was friendly and put me at ease. Highly recommend.
