Beforehand After your consultation and x-rays some preparatory treatment may be required. If your teeth are still present, they may need to be extracted before the time of implant placement. Alternatively it is often possible to extract the teeth at the same time as implant placement. 2. Placing the implants This is usually a short procedure performed under local anaesthesia. Post-operative discomfort and swelling is rare. In visible areas, temporary teeth will be placed so that you can eat and behave as normal after the procedure. 3. Fitting the new teeth After a couple of months a permanent bridge can be placed on the implants. This is a simple procedure with no discomfort. This can be performed at our office, or by your general dentist if you have been referred by them to us. 4. The beautiful result The new, natural-looking bridge will handle all of the pressure, and look just like your natural teeth. Continue your usual dental hygiene to keep both teeth and gums healthy. You can now eat whatever you like. « Back to Multiple Tooth Replacement Phone 0800 999 009 38 Broadway . Newmarket . Auckland 465a Devon St East . New Plymouth
