Dental Implants
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are artificial teeth fixed into the jawbone, offering a natural look and stability. They are composed of a titanium screw and a crown, which is designed to match your natural teeth.
What is ‘All-on-4’ treatment?
All-on-4 is a technique that uses four to six implants to support a full-arch prosthesis. It’s a faster, more efficient alternative to traditional dentures.
Does getting dental implants hurt?
No, the procedure is typically pain-free due to local anaesthesia or sedation. You may feel some pressure, but pain is minimal.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last many years, sometimes even a lifetime. Regular dental check-ups are important to maintain their longevity.
Root Canal Treatments
What is a root canal treatment?
A root canal is a dental procedure to save a severely damaged or infected tooth by removing the infected pulp and sealing the tooth to prevent further damage.
Is a root canal painful?
Root canal treatments are generally pain-free, thanks to anaesthesia techniques. You might experience some sensitivity after the procedure, but this should subside quickly.
