The use of dental implants in Northern Ireland to replace missing teeth continues to rise year by year as more people are recognising the advantages and benefits that dental implants can have. Dental Implants do represent a large investment and the price can be off putting, but the good news is that if you are missing a lot or all of your teeth you do not need a dental implant to replace each and every missing tooth!

Dental Implants Northern Ireland – How Many Implants Will I Need?

Today’s state of the art implant systems enable a minimum number of implants to be placed to support a maximum number of teeth. That means as few as four implants can be used to support a full arch (upper or lower jaw) of fixed, non-removable teeth. And this remarkable life changing event can be accomplished in a single day using a technique call All-On-4! More information can be found here.

But I’m only missing a few I hear you say!! Well there is good news for you as well.

Dental Bridges can also be used to replace numerous missing teeth. With single implants being able to replace two teeth and 2 implants able to span many more spaces you will be pleasantly surprised how easily it can be to fill a large gap in your smile.

These processes are not only the most efficient way to replace teeth, but also the most cost effective strategy for implant supported tooth replacements. Individual implants to replace each tooth are impractical and not recommended. Given that there are usually 28 functional teeth, replacing teeth individually can be vastly more expensive and may not offer any better result.
