Implants: Case study – full arch bridge

Many patients are unable to be without their teeth while the implants integrate. We have been providing "same-day teeth" for several years and have experience with three different implant systems using this technique.

This gentleman has had the benefit of bridgework for many years that has now failed and could not be replaced. He wanted a fixed alternative to dentures and even a temporary denture was not an option given his busy lifestyle and committments.

We carefully removed the remaining teeth and placed 7 Straumann implants and a temporary bridge at the same visit.

The final bridgework (by Richard Noar) is excellent and the patient is delighted.
