Imogen's Dental Implant Journey

Dental Implant Patient Background

Imogen, our lovely patient was referred to London Dental Specialist by a fellow specialist colleague in Dubai.

She fell over at the age of 13 and since then she never stopped experiencing reoccurring problems caused by dental trauma.

Dental trauma can result in tooth loss despite best efforts at retaining and maintaining compromised teeth. Upper front teeth are more likely to suffer from trauma, and their loss can result in significant cosmetic and confidence problems in patients.

Most often people who suffer trauma to their front teeth as teenagers tend to need dental implants later in life. The key to success is to delay the need for implants till they are in their twenties or thirties.

Imogen's First Impressions

As soon as she met Dr Ope, Imogen felt extremely confident and wanted to embark in this journey towards her desired smile without hesitation.

Results

Imogen has regained the confidence in smiling again. She used to be very self -conscious about her problem and used to cover her mouth each time she was smiling.

I'm so happy with my teeth. They're just like brand new as if nothing ever happened to them. I probably smile more now and I don't have to try to cover them up anymore .
