Despite all the benefits of dental implants, there is one downside: restorations aren’t typically fitted to implants for 3-6 months.
This is to enable osseointegration (bone-to-implant fusion) to take place. So, under normal circumstances, implants would be anchored into the jaw, and then a waiting period would ensue to ensure complete stability before your permanent dental crown was fitted.
However, when we use specially designed implants, our experienced team can safely place teeth on the same day in most cases.
Using a process known as All-on-4 or All-on-6, we can replace an entire arch of missing teeth using just 4-6 implants that support a full arch of replacement teeth. This technique is known as ‘immediate loading’ and is a game-changer for patients because they can leave that very same day with a brand-new smile.

Here’s How The Process Works
After you’ve been given the go-ahead following a clinical evaluation, our dentist will determine where to place the implants to maintain optimum stability. This is done using an exact 3D image of your jaw. The scan also outlines the position of any sinuses and nerves.
When the time comes for surgery, pilot holes are drilled directly through the gum and into the jaw, thus negating the need to open up the gum. Then, 4 or 6 specially adapted implants are placed, depending on whether the top or bottom jaw needs rehabilitation. Once the implants are in position, our dentist will fit your temporary teeth at the same time to complete the smile.
Finally, after several weeks, when the implants are fully stable, the temporary teeth are removed, and your permanent arch is fitted. Now it’s time to wear your new smile with confidence.

FAQs
1. Why Same-Day Implants?
For edentulous patients – those who are missing entire rows of teeth- it isn’t cost-effective for every tooth gap to be replaced using a single dental implant or even multi-tooth implants. With the All-on-4 or All-on-6 process, four to six specially designed implants can safely support an entire arch of restoration teeth.
The process allows patients to enjoy a stable and secure bite from day one, and for many people, particularly those who have been used to wearing dentures, the results can be life-changing.

After a meaningful conversation with Nikki lead to a consultation with Nadeem a thorough examination and review Nadeem confirmed that implants were viable .This was good news for us.The implants are now in daily use without any problems. This is a direct result of the care and professionalism exhibited throughout the treatment by the team, Nadeem ,Sheena, Arati and Sayiti .I suppose the real recommendation is that we are now having further implant work carried out .
Have read many of the reviews for Smile Success and really can’t think of a single thing to add that hasn’t already been saidJust excellent in all respects!I had two full jaw implants which Dr Zafar explained could be tricky as my jaw bones were in such poor condition but he just persisted and although it has been quite a long journey, I couldn’t be more pleased and grateful for all the hard work and especially the final outcome.My teeth are lovely and even better, I can eat properly!!!I am just so pleased and would thoroughly recommend this practice for the great results and all the lovely, kind and professional people who work thereThank you so much
I needed two implants and after much searching and reading of reviews, settled on Smile Success, and I'm so glad I did.The team are great - Dr Zafar who carried out my treatment along with nurses Arati and Sangita were brilliant, talked me through every step, and were very reassuring and patient. Nikki coordinated all my treatment and was very well organised as there were quite a few appointments over several months, and this worked well. The implants are great. Thank you all! I would highly recommend.
A huge thank you to Dr. Zafar for my implants – the results are fantastic. Nurses Arati and Sangita were wonderful and made me feel really relaxed throughout the process. And of course, a special mention to Nikki, who has been totally professional and supportive from start to finish. The whole team made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and comfortable. Highly recommended! I will see you all again later in the year for more planned work. Jason
I've recently had 3 implants with the practice, all were explained by Dr Zafar who makes you feel at ease with a relaxed atmosphere, plus the nurses Arati and Sangita who along with Nikki the Practice Manager sorted out the treatment plan and costs which were explained. All appointments are booked in advance for the next treatment plan and they try to accommodate times that suit yourself. I would highly recommend and wouldn't go anywhere else for any future work.
Dr Zafar is very knowledgeable and experienced and is ably supported by a great team.I found that he had the best outcome for me in mind with the advice he provided even if it meant one less implant (so less money for the practice). I wouldn't want it any other way.I found Dr Zafar to be happy to discuss various options and answer all the questions I had.For the two implants I did end up having, there have been no complications and they've been A-OK since I had them done one and a half years ago.Nikki, the practice manager is very approachable and helps coordinate treatment which makes it easy to find out pertinent information about treatment both before and after.I found nurses Arati and Sangita to be pleasant and adept at getting scans done and assisting Dr Zafar with the actual implant procedures.The practice is equipped with all the latest equipment including the 3D xray scanner which was a key deciding factor for me after getting nothing but hassle at a totally different unrelated practice where scans are done at a different location with poor communication between the implantologist's practice and the place where the scanner was resulting in wasted trips due to incorrect instructions.All in all, a professional service that I have no hesitation in recommending for anyone considering getting implants.
I was very nervous about having an implant but after my consultation with Dr Nadeem felt assured as he explained the whole procedure. Having been to other dentists, I felt confident immediately on seeing Dr Nadeem as he has a calming influence and is kind and understanding.My tooth was extracted, implant placed and I could not believe how pain free this was.Nikki on reception is such a lovely, warm, friendly person and has been most helpful throughout.I have received excellent treatment and cannot recommend Smile Success highly enough. Thank you to the whole team and the confident smile I now have 😊 Heidi Kent
First rate service, beginning to end. The team here are experienced, processional and don't treat you like a number. They take time to explain procedures and there is no pressure, just best advice. Having had an implant from Nadeem I can genuinely say you are in good hands and he will make you feel at ease. Nikki, who is the practice manager, interfaces exceptionally well with patients and is kind, caring and understanding.I travelled quite a distance to attend here. Very glad I did. Heartily recommended.
All i can say is that these people are amazing. They make you feel very comfortable before they get on with their job from start to finish its all friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else. My partner and myself have been going here since 2016.
Outstanding care for nervous patients!As someone who as always had a fear of going to a dentist, Dr Nadeem Zafar and the team (Arati and Nikki) at Smile Success have gone out of their way to make me feel as comfortable as possible.I am currently going through major restoration treatment and I absolutely love the results so far. I really look forward to my next visit now which is something I never thought I would say!Everything from the treatment plan, appointments and billing is clearly structured and transparent. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.
My experience of Smile Success has been fantastic - from a warm welcome from reception, through to the professionalism of the highly experienced Dr Zafar. The whole team are friendly, kind and approachable. I'm a nervous dental patient and the team made me feel comfortable and safe. I honestly felt absolutely no pain or discomfort when the tooth implant was placed. I highly recommend Smile Success! Thank you!
