Smile in a day is a turning point in your life.

Dental implants also fill out your face, helping to minimise the appearance of fine lines and puckering that can make you appear older.

Implant procedure

1. You will first be sedated, helping you to feel relaxed and pain free during the treatment
2. Any necessary teeth are removed
3. The gums are prepared
4. Pilot holes are drilled into each jaw
5. Grade 5 titanium implants are secured to the bone, followed by abutments
6. Your gums are sewn up
7. A temporary bridge or dental crown is secured, giving you a Smile in a day

Recovery

1. You are sent home, allowing your gums to heal and to ensure the implants have fully knitted with the jawbone. This typically takes 3 - 4 months
2. During this time, the team are creating your permanent bridge or dental crown

Final fitting

1. Return to Yorkshire Dental Suite Leeds to have your permanent teeth fitted

While you may be able to find similar treatments abroad at a lower price, there are significant risks and complications to be aware of. In the BBC documentary 'Turkey Teeth: Bargain Smiles or Big Mistake', over 1,000 overseas dentists were contacted to see if their implants were of good value. Approximately 40% of the replies recommended unnecessary or mis-sold treatments, causing major concerns if you’re thinking of undergoing this procedure.

The experts at Yorkshire Dental Suite Leeds have had first-hand experience in correcting overseas Smile in a Day treatments. They have found that:

• Treatments are completed in a week or two, which is not enough time for your gums to heal
• Clinics often use low grade titanium implants that quickly corrode and fail

Poor implant placement and cheap materials may result in a smile that needs to be replaced in as little as five years, instead of the 'lifetime' promised by overseas dentists. This means that, within the 20 years you would expect implants to last, you will have spent roughly the same amount as if you had your treatment completed in the UK - without all the hassle!

Most UK dentists will not treat patients who have had Turkey Teeth or dental work abroad, as it would make them liable for any issues. In some cases, Yorkshire Dental Suite can help. Contact us today to find out more.
