1:Before the procedureThe dentist determines what needs to be done and prepares both himself and the patient for the coming treatment procedure. |
 |
2. Installing the implantsThe first step is installing dental implants to replace the lost tooth roots. The number of implants placed depends on bone condition and the implantologist's judgement. If conventional implants are done, temporary dentures can be opted to be made or your old dentures may be worn that enable you to eat and function while the implants are left to heal and integrate with the jaw bone. |
 |
3. Attaching the bridgeThe final step is the making and securely installing the fixed bridge on top of the implants. |
 |
4. End resultYour new teeth should be hard to tell from natural – both for you and others. People who have had traditional dentures before getting a fixed bridge often describe this as an overwhelming and very positive experience. |
