The high expectations of today’s well educated and informed patients, demands an integrated approach to implantology. Traditionally, implants have been placed by oral surgeons with little knowledge and understanding of the demands of restorative dentistry. If this is the case, then the final position of the implant can limit the aesthetics of the final result. In other words, the implant dictates the position of the tooth.

At the Liverpool Implant Centre we are able to do things differently because, as well as being a highly trained and accomplished implantologist, Stephen has a sound restorative background. This means he is able to consider and anticipate potential restorative problems at the treatment planning stage and place the implant in a position to maximise aesthetics and function. In other words, the tooth dictates the position of the implant.

We can take care of the entire process from beginning to end, from the initial assessment right through to final restoration of the new tooth. One surgeon is responsible for the whole treatment. Or we would be delighted to involve you at the treatment planning stage and restoration stage.

There are to date over 600 implant systems on the market throughout the world. Few companies or systems are backed by scientific research and development. They simply create clones of other systems and are often considered of poorer quality. Our standards at Liverpool Implant Centre dictate that we use only the best, most tried and trusted systems backed by the most comprehensive research. That is why we use implants approved by the International Team for Implantology (ITI) such as the Straumann and Astra systems.

Patients will attend for an initial consultation where all aspects of their concerns will be addressed. A full written treatment plan will be formulated and once it is appropriate to commence treatment, the patient should be assured that the highest standard of treatment and aftercare will be provided.

We are keen to see the integration of treatment extend to you, the patient’s trusted GDP. So you are welcome to become involved in restoring your implant cases or to observe your patients under treatment. We can offer advice, and mentoring to facilitate your initial involvement in this rapidly expanding area of dentistry. Alternatively, we can return the patient with a completed restoration. All referring GDP’s will be provided with full treatment plans and updated with patient progress. Immediate aftercare will also be provided at the Liverpool Implant Centre.

We all know that it is now considered a dentist’s legal duty to offer implants as one of the alternatives for treatment of a missing tooth and that the easiest time to plan an implant with regard to bone maintenance is at the point of extraction. We can provide you with patient information literature, which can help you to discuss treatment options with your patients.
