Get the smile you want while helping to renew and restore your oral health with implant retained dentures at Diamond Dental Care.

Implant retained dentures offer up an alternative to more traditional dentures, and are designed to replace up to a whole arch of teeth that may be missing or damaged beyond repair. More stable and comfortable than traditional dentures, implant retained dentures also have the advantage of looking more natural in the mouth, enhancing and even improving a smile.

How do implant retained dentures work?

Implant retained dentures work in a similar way to traditional dentures, but while traditional dentures are held in place by an adhesive, implant retained dentures are held in place via implants in the jaw. The prosthetic teeth are then clipped in on top of them.

What is the treatment process like?

We’ll first have to find out if you’re suitable for the treatment or not, as implants require a certain amount of healthy jaw to be present. We’ll do this with an X-ray or CT scan as well as a full consultation where we’ll go over your oral health history with you. Thanks to our OPG machine, you’ll be comfortable from the get-go, as we’re able to X-ray the entire mouth without the use of uncomfortable bitewings or plastic.

Once we’ve established that this is the right treatment for you, your implants will be applied first. This will be done under local anaesthetic so you don’t feel a thing in the area being treated, and are comfortable and pain-free throughout. Once they have been applied, there’ll be a wait of a few months while the implants and jawbone successfully fuse together. We’ll be able to offer you temporary dentures at this point, and you’ll come back in to have your personal dentures applied.

How long does the treatment take?

Receiving implant retained dentures can take a few months and several trips to the practice.

Is it painful?

During the treatment, you’ll receive a local anaesthetic so you don’t feel a thing. There may be some discomfort afterwards, once the anaesthetic has worn off, but you should be able to treat this with over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen or paracetamol.

I highly recommend this excellent dental team. From the friendly, welcoming faces at Reception to the reassuringly professional work of the surgeons. A huge thankyou, in particular, to Neel Sethi for the time and patience he took to outline the options and procedures available, to the eventual satisfactory outcome. Throughout I was always made to feel welcome, relaxed and in very capable hands. I look forward to all future visits with my new friends 😀.

Always very pleasant and helpful reception staff. And the premises are spotless but also comfortable tooMahbub is meticulous in his hygienist processes and always tells me what he finds as he works and how I should best improve my oral health.He is very careful too to make sure I am comfortable during all the processes especially where some of my teeth and gums are a little sensitive.

Friendly and helpful staff, nice clean facilities. Been very happy with the dental work I've had done here. you've no hope if trying via NHS realistically but going private with them has worked out well for me over the last few years since i started going here.

I had a fantastic experience at this practice. Neel was incredibly thorough. He took time to explain my options, as well as what I could expect from the procedures and answered any follow-up questions I had. Both he and the dental nurse were incredibly attentive and kind. I felt like I was in safe hands with them both.

I contacted Diamond Dental because I was in a lot of pain with a tooth that needed extraction. I had spoken to my dentist of 35 years and they offered me an appointment in 3 weeks. The only reason I still had the troublesome tooth was because they had cancelled an emergency appointment a while back. The whole team at DD were professional and helpful from the first phone call. I was seen the same day and the dentist, Yanisha, was a true professional and also had a lovely friendly manner explaining everything and putting me at ease. Excellent service and a good price too. I strongly recommend !

I received a very professional service from start to finish at this clinic. I was seen by Neel Sethi who did a thorough check and explained the filling treatment that I needed. He was very gentle and I did not feel any discomfort or pain during the whole process. He even showed me before and after photos, which I had not experienced at any other clinic. I felt totally at ease and will go back to Neel for any future checks and treatments.

Amazing service. The staff I have met are all super friendly.I could not have asked for a better experience. Tayla at the desk was really welcoming, and during the actual appointment Andrea and Corinne gave me the best treatment. I felt no pain or discomfort at any time and more importantly I was consistently informed about the process and given clear options on how to proceed for future appointments.I would highly recommended this dentist to those in need or anyone just looking for somewhere to do a regular check-up.

I don’t usually write reviews but Neel at Diamond Dental Group was amazing throughout my treatment. He explained everything so clearly and simply and kept me informed throughout.He didn’t pressurise me into any treatment and really felt like I was getting fair and honest advice and treatment options which is why I ended up choosing him.In the end the treatment was a breeze, run super comfortably and professionally by Neel and now I am not anxious or scared for my next appointment as know I’m in good hands!Thanks so much Neel :)

My first point of contact was Alison. She was brilliant and made me feel welcome and she was also there when I first attended. Very much appreciated as I was a real scaredy-cat. I love my new dentist Neel in the most professional way and I put my trust in him. My confidence is growing with this practice after 34 years of being at another.I have no hesitation in my recommendation.
