    BirminghamAll-on-4

    Treatment: All-on-4, upper arch

    A failing upper denture and several remaining loose teeth. Margaret had stopped eating in company and rarely smiled in photographs.

    After an assessment at Harley Street and a CBCT scan, four implants were placed in the upper jaw and a fixed temporary bridge fitted within 48 hours.

    Outcome

    Final zirconia bridge fitted four months later. Bite restored, eating returned to normal, confidence in social settings rebuilt.

    From the first phone call I felt looked after. The surgeon took real time with me — I never felt rushed.
  • David, 71

    GlasgowAll-on-6

    Treatment: All-on-6 upper with full zirconia bridge

    Presenting

    Long-term denture wearer, increasingly uncomfortable and unstable. Wanted a fixed solution for the rest of his life.

    Approach

    Six implants placed in the upper jaw to give maximum stability. Bone quality was excellent so no grafting was needed.

    Outcome

    Strong, comfortable bite. David reports eating foods he had given up on years ago.

    What changed my mind was speaking to the coordinator and seeing the surgeon's qualifications.

    I had been told for years that nothing could be done. It was an enormous relief.
