“Cap or Crown? What’s the difference?”

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

“I’ve got some caps, and now my dentist has told me I need a crown on another tooth. What is the difference?”

A cap or crown - they’re the same thing and simply refer to complete coverage of the tooth. Caps/crowns are generally necessary when teeth have gotten weak from previous large fillings to protect them from fracturing or teeth that have fractured and now they need support. Crowns are also placed on top of implants or on teeth that have had root canal treatment.

How do I keep my new implants clean?

Monday, August 24th, 2009

“I’ve just finished all my treatment and am so pleased with the results, I want to make sure I look after my new smile more than I did my old, but how do I clean round the implant teeth?”

Throughout treatment we arrange hygienest visits and once you have finished we still insist you attend regularly to maintain your hygiene and the health of your mouth. The hygienest will go through intructions with you on how best to clean, particularly round implants/bridgework where methods might be slightly new to you.

There are many things additonal to your usual brushing. We may suggest a particualar toothpaste and/or mouthrinse. Cleaning interporximally (inbetween the teeth) may need floss, superfloss and/or tepe brushes. Your hygienist will be able to advise what you need and show you exactly how.

“I am really delighted in my new implants. When I first came into your practice I did not believe there was alot you could do for me, but at the time you explained in detail what the journey entailed. I am so glad now I took the opportunity and went ahead with it. I am also amazed at your skills as a cosmetic surgeon, also from waht my family say you cannot tell the implants from the real thing.

Thank you so much Liam from a truly delighted patient.”

Last week Liam left behind the rain of the UK and jetted off to the sunshine in San Francisco, California. Ever wanting to learn more, he completed a week course in Advanced Implantology. Sadly, he didnt get to see much of the sun, but did get to spend long hours learning the most advanced techniques alongside clinicians from all over the world.

The course, led by the world renound Dennis Tarnow D.D.S from New York, focused on both the surgical advancements and aesthetic restoration of implants. With many patients looking towards dental implants as a treatment option, the course has also given Liam invaluable knowledge of overcoming structural problems that may have previously rendered some patients unsuitable for implant treatment.

Implants, Veneer, Crowns & Gum Treatment

Friday, June 12th, 2009

Steve, 30 from Ainsdale in Southport

To remove the pink acrylic that was replacing some missing gum, gum treatment was performed to match the gum level of the left front tooth to the right. A bridge was being used to replace a missing front tooth, this was replaced with an implant and some veneers and crowns were then placed.

“I’ve got some missing teeth, can you do anything for me?”

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

“Over the years I’ve got had to lose some teeth. Now I’ve got missing teeth, i want to improve how things look and be able to eat foods I currently avoid. Is there anything you can do for me?”

Yes! With implants, bridges and even dentures there’s always something we can do. Replacing missing teeth is something we do everyday for many patients. We need to have a thorough consultation with you so we can determine exactly what the right solution is for you personally. One size doesn’t fit all! But all our solutions combine making things look good with functionally getting things right.
