Implant Dentistry Explained

Implant Dentistry Explained

Are you tired of fumbling about with your old dentures? Wish you could enjoy the foods you once loved? Sick of not being able to smile in confidence and comfort? Why not join the increasing number of people who are saying goodbye to their old, tired, uncomfortable dentures with thanks to dental implants. So, just what are dental implants?

Up until quite recently, the majority of dentistry involved taking things out, such as teeth that may have caused some issues, often leaving people without teeth. However, advancements made in modern dentistry means that dental implants look, act and feel just like a real tooth. You can even brush them as normal just like natural teeth!

It also helps encourage the growth of jawbone, something which can wear away over time if you use a denture or are missing teeth.

Why Choose Seapoint Clinic?

Choosing the right dental clinic to suit your specific needs can be a bit of a daunting task, with so many clinics offering so many treatments, all at wildly varying costs. Here at Seapoint Clinic, we believe in making each step of the decision making process as simple as possible. It's why we have invested in the latest dental technology, meaning we can see patients who may have been refused elsewhere as well as meaning you won't have to take any unnecessary journeys, as we have everything you need under the one roof!

Another big problem that Seapoint solves is the clarity of our fees. Our x-ray fee of €60 includes every x-ray you will require throughout your entire implant process. Some clinics charge in excess of €150 for a CT alone. That can mean a saving of hundreds of euro over the course of your treatment. 

Having our own on-site dental laboratory also makes life much more comfortable for patients. If a tooth on a denture breaks it can be fixed the same day while you wait. If you are having teeth out the clinic can make sure you leave with at least a temporary tooth the same day. That saves discomfort and embarrassment which you can`t put a price on.

Nowadays when I walk into a room, I walk in smiling. I'm not afraid to smile anymore.
