Types of dental implants we offer
An implant is a great choice for a single missing tooth, whether it’s visible or not, and the results can be life-changing. A single implant provides the foundation for a crown, which will be created at Lyme Bay Dental & Implant Clinic to match your teeth exactly.
Types of dental implants we offer
If you’re missing more than one tooth, there are a number of options available to you at Lyme Bay Dental & Implant Clinic. In some cases a single implant can support two replacement teeth, or two implants can support a fixed bridge if you have several missing teeth. A bridge is a long-lasting, natural-looking solution which will help preserve the health of the rest of your teeth and jaw.
Types of dental implants we offer
Same day teeth is a process at Lyme Bay Dental & Implant Clinic where patients can have implants placed and fully functioning teeth attached in the space of one day. With the latest technological advances, it is possible to remove a tooth and place an implant immediately into the extraction socket.
Types of dental implants we offer
Dentures can be uncomfortable, irritating and embarrassing. With advances in implant dentistry, Lyme Bay Dental & Implant Clinic now offer innovative techniques for denture stabilisation, ensuring they are comfortable and will not slip.
