Frequently Asked Questions

During the process of getting dental implants in Swindon, you are unlikely to feel any pain, thanks to the use of local anaesthetic at the surgery site.

Anaesthetics block pain signals from travelling up the nervous system to the brain, stopping you from feeling what we recognise as pain. 

Like all surgical procedures, however, there will be some discomfort after getting dental implants in Swindon. The nerve signals that communicate pain are blocked with anaesthetic but will start to resend once it has worn off. This is perfectly normal and to be expected, so don’t worry.

Our dental professionals will give you personalised advice on how to manage any soreness with over-the-counter pain medications, including paracetamol and ibuprofen. 

Similarly, it is important to remember that after a week post-surgery, you should be feeling much more yourself, including experiencing much less pain. It could even be less than a week after, depending on how quickly you heal. 

To discuss the procedure in more detail or ask any further questions, you can call or fill in our enquiry form, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

This is a common concern for patients considering dental implants in Swindon, and as such, here at Marlborough Dental Studio, we have a few strategies to ensure your dental implants look as natural as possible.

This includes:

  • Whitening your natural teeth prior to fitting your dental implant- to ensure a seamless match.
  • Choosing the correct colour match for the dental implant if the patient does not want to undergo tooth whitening.
  • Altering the shape of the dental implant to make sure it blends in and maintains the symmetry of your smile.

Moreover, by using a dental implant instead of a partial denture, you can be sure that your prosthetic tooth is much more likely to be unnoticed, simply because it is not removable and is implanted directly into the jawbone- making it look just like a natural tooth.
