Not at all–our patients report a painless procedure. There may be some swelling and bruising a few days after the treatment but it is easily controlled with paracetamol.
Here at Dental Solutions, we are proud to offer All On 4 implants at our Lymm, Cheshire practice.
This means that you can walk out with new teeth on the same day.
All On 4 dental implants use four dental implants which support a fixed bridge. So, rather than having to take out a denture, you have a solid base with teeth that you don’t need to remove and clean.
All On 4 implants are very natural in terms of their look and feel. They are completely secure, meaning that you no longer need to avoid your favourite foods or worry about removing your dentures before eating or drinking.
All On 4 dental implants help to maintain your jaw bone structure. This means that you can avoid the sunken appearance you might experience whilst wearing traditional dentures. Implant-retained dentures, such as All On 4 dental implants, help to restore your confidence and allow you to smile again!
All On 4 Dental Implants are placed into the gum, under local anaesthetic. Then, a titanium peg is used to create a ‘virtual root’, to which anything from a single tooth to a complete set of new replacement teeth can be attached. With All On 4 dental implants, four anchor implants are placed into the jaw and these are then used to attach a permanently fixed bridge. All On Four treatment means that you no longer need to remove your teeth to clean them. It also means that you no longer need to deal with the discomfort and irritation that can come with poorly fitted dentures.
All On Four dental implants mean that new teeth can be fitted on the same day, with the treatment often referred to as Same Day Teeth. Our on-site technician allows us to customise your All On 4 dental implants and create the bridge without the need to send it away to a laboratory. This not only saves time but means that you don’t need to leave our practice with gaps in your teeth!
You are now able to walk into our Lymm surgery and walk out with new teeth on the same day with our dental implants in Cheshire!

Dental Implants in CheshireUsing the Same Day Teeth technique, four implants are used to support a fixed bridge which is much easier to eat and smile with than traditional dentures.
Implants are very natural in terms of their look and feel- they are totally secure, leaving you to eat and taste the foods you want. In addition, your jaw bones do not deteriorate in the same way as for many denture users, thus avoiding the ‘sunken look’ that some denture wearers experience.
The implants are placed in the gum, under local anaesthetic. The titanium peg is then used as a ‘virtual root’ to which anything from a single tooth to a complete set of replacement teeth can be attached.

Your temporary bridge will be fitted on the same day so there is no need to ever feel that you will be without teeth. However your total treatment, which includes healing to allow for the permanent bridge to be fitted, take between 6-8 months. Gavin Laidlaw our Principal dentist will work with you to create your new smile using the best shade, shape and size of teeth to look completely natural. We will ask you to bring along some old photos of you smiling to help us to create this.
Just a chat – there are no procedures at your first free consultation. We just sit and talk to you and get a better understanding of your situation. You have a choice – you can either meet with Gavin Laidlaw our Principal Dentist, or you can meet with our Implant Facilitator Nicola Corless who will be looking after you throughout the treatment process.
You will need to be with us for about 6 hours in total, which usually includes 2 hours for preparation, 2 hours of treatment and 2 hours relaxing in the separate recovery area in our dedicated implant suite.
Yes, of course. We have a range of payment options to suit you, including interest-free credit over 10 months and interest-bearing rates over 3-5 years. Our treatment facilitator Nicky can discuss all these different options with you.
It very much depends on the type of work you do and how physical it is. Typically we would recommend at least 2 days, but up to a week is advisable, but not always needed.
For an initial period of 8-12 weeks whilst healing is in progress we recommend eating soft foods such as pasta, fish, chicken, cottage pie, sandwiches. During this period we would ask you to avoid eating nuts, crusty bread and pizzas. Once treatment is complete you can eat completely normally again.
