They can benefit from the SameDay Implant service In addition to implant treatment, Dental implants offer a natural solution to replace teeth lost due to trauma, decay, disease or old age. Replacing missing teeth improves the oral health as well as the functionality of the teeth, enhances smile and self-esteem. A dental implant is a small titanium screw root, which is fitted into the socket of the missing teeth that looks and functions like the real ones and can be used to replace a single tooth or several teeth. While conventional dental implant process can take months from three up to nine and more, SameDay Dental Implants offers a procedure that can be completed in three appointments for eligible patients. With the stateof-the-art equipments, latest technologies and highly skilled dental specialists, the clinic offers a quick and better alternative to the conventional procedure. The missing teeth can be replaced immediately by placing the implants directly into the available bone. With the use of angled, and/or max implant technology, is less likely to require bone grafting. For multiple implants cases, on the very first treatment appointment, the dental specialist will perform dental extractions of the damaged teeth and finish off the procedure by placing the implants. The second appointment is scheduled within the next 6 hours (depending on complexity of each case), where the doc tor will place the temporary fixed acrylic teeth. The third and final appointment will be seven days later, when the final set of fixed permanent porcelain teeth is deliver. For single implant cases, the final permanent all-ceramic (porcelain) tooth, is delivered to the patient the SameDay, six hours after the implant placement. It s never too late to have dental implants It s never too late to have dental implants, says 91-year-old Dubai resident P Shah after having 20 extractions, 12 implants and 28 fixed teeth all in the same day at SameDay Dental Implants Clinic in Dubai Healthcare City. For decades Shah had to put up with an uncomfortable and unstable removable partial denture, which hurt his gums every time he tried to bite something hard. For years I postponed having dental implants as I was told by many dental clinics that due to inadequate jaw bone I would need a painful bone grafting procedure prior to implant placement. I then visited SameDay Dental Implants Clinic where I was told that with their advanced dental implant technology I was a good candidate for placement of angled and wide implants into available native bone thereby avoiding bone grafting. Attend Consultation Every dental implant procedure begins with a consultation. At this consultation, our doctors create a customized treatment plan just for you, and you will learn exactly how much dental implants will cost you, without having to worry about any surprise fees. Dental Implant Procedure When you walk out of your procedure, your dental implants will be in place and you ll go home with a temporary set of teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Receive Your Permanent Teeth This is the final step! When your mouth has finished healing and your new dental implants have stabilized, we will replace your temporary teeth with your new permanent teeth. What are Dental Implants? Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that provide a permanent base for fixed, replacement teeth. Compared to dentures, bridges and crowns, dental implants are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth, failing teeth or chronic dental problems. Because they fit, feel and function like natural teeth, dental implants are quickly becoming the new standard in tooth replacement. Dental implants typically have three parts: 1) The implant: A screw that serves as a root for your new teeth. This is what permanently attaches to your jaw. 2) The abutment: A permanent, but removable by your doctor, connector that supports and holds a tooth or set of teeth. 3) The crown (or prosthetic tooth): This is the part of the tooth that you can see. It s usually made of zirconium or porcelain for durability and good looks. You can use dental implants to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth or a full upper and/or lower set of teeth. If you need to restore a full arch, you may be a perfect candidate for the all-on-four treatment. Our surgeons will place four implants and then attach a full arch of teeth, giving the procedure its name (all teeth, only four implants). One team. One cost. One location. That s the real beauty of dental implants Multiple Implants Occasionally a patient is missing more than one tooth, but still has healthy gums and surrounding teeth, and a multiple implant is the best solution. Tw o fixtures are implanted and the crown is attached, leaving other natural teeth intact. The multiple implant is not for everyone, and even if a patient is only missing a few teeth, it may be still be preferable to perform an all-on-four procedure. Single Tooth Implants If you have lost a single tooth due to an accident or from periodontal disease, that one tooth can be easily replaced using a dental implant. Your new tooth w ill look and function just like your other natural teeth. You also should take into account the longevity of implants. When properly cared for, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them one of the best investments for long-term tooth replacement. *Source: http://myoms.org/procedures/dental-implant-surgery Tooth replacement technologies Flipper Dentures (partial or full) Bridge Implants Longevity 1-3 years 5-7 years 7-10 years Lifetime Preservation of healthy Yes Yes No Yes

Is the procedure painful? Depending on the procedure, you can elect to have local anesthesia or IV sedation. Many of our patients opt for the sedation so they don t feel anything during the procedure. Afterwards, most of our patients report that they experienced far less pain than anticipated. My teeth are in really bad shape. Am I still a candidate for dental implants? In our experience, most people can safely receive dental implants. Even age is not necessarily a factor when determining dental implant placement. Whether you re missing one tooth or many, dental implants may be the best choice for you I don t want people to know I have implants. Will my smile look like I have real teeth?

With a dazzling new smile, people build confidence in themselves, giving them the ability to do anything they want and never have any negative vibes about themselves. With cosmetic dentistry, dentists administer life changing treatments that can truly enhance the shape and colour of a patients teeth.implants- These are replacements for missing teeth and can replace missing teeth in one day with the immediate loading of dental implants. By using angled implants, placed directly into available bone, the procedure does not require bone grafting, which is normally associated with the placement of implants and can be painful. The same day implant technique means you can walk away with same day teeth and a smile you are proud of within 6 hours. Dental Crowns- Crowns are dental restorations covering all or most of natural teeth that have been damaged. They are made of composite or porcelain and are cemented on top of the damaged teeth. Bonding- This refers to covering the tooth surface with a composite material to repair and change the colour or shape of a tooth. It is also sometimes called composite veneers. Teeth Whitening and Bleaching- This is a process that restores teeth to their natural colour. Bleaching will not whiten porcelain crowns or composite tooth-coloured bondings. Veneers- These are thin, custom-made shells of porcelain bonded to the outward-facing sides of natural teeth to improve their appearance. Ceramic porcelain Veneers gives people that natural-looking smile. This treatment is often recommend to enhance, restore tooth structure and function, and correct some orthodontic problems. No two veneer procedures are the same, they are different and depend on the individuals teeth and appearance.
