Implants provide a fixed replacement for lost teeth. An implant is a titanium replica of a tooth root that is implanted into the jaw bone and can then support single or multipletooth restorations.

Castle Ceramics has extensive experience of all major implant systems and we can use a variety of materials, we have several CAD-CAM systems and we are also proud to be a Platinum Approved Straumann Laboratory. We offer the following implant services.

We can now offer the Biomain I-Bridge®2.

The Biomain I-Bridge®2 is a unique precision milled implant bridge intended for fixture level, in CoCr or titanium, which gives you the opportunity to angle the screw holes up to 20° without using expensive angled abutments. It gives a documented fit and allows for ease of use for dentists and dental laboratories.The patient will get an esthetic and sustainable construction without tensions.

Digital Implant Planning

Inclusive digital treatment planning service allows you to view the oral anatomy in a dynamic, three dimensional structure without the need for specialized training or costly investment in software.

Because of the precision of denture implant surgery we are able to work with you to create an exact detailed plan for your implant procedures, we can help you determine the optimal position for your implant and restoration and identify the critical stucture we must avoid. The system provides a constant flow of information during the planning process, allowing us, together, to make minute adjustments. This ensures a quality outcome for patients and a predictable solution for you.

The digital systems we use are -

Simplant ™ Digital Planning

NobelGuide ™

Biomet 3i Navigator ™

Digital Treatment Planning and Guided Surgery

Digital Treatment Planning and Guided Surgery provide total control for implant restorative success. Our Digital Treatment Planning Service is designed to help you integrate this technology and bring your implant practice to a new level. The decision tree below will help you understand the options you have. We will fabricate the Scan Appliance / Radiographic Guide and utilize the appropriate treatment planning software based on your case.

Implant Provisionals

Implant provisionals provide your patients with natural looking temporaries at any stage of treatment. When placed over the final implant abutments or fabricated for healing over fixture heads in the gingival our provisionals allow great predictability with the sculpting of fresh extration sites and shaping the suicus around other implants.

The provisionals allow you to determine centre lines, lip support, occlusal schemes, shades and shapes all agreed before the final restoration. ( for fixure head screw retained provisionals we work with the cost effective temporary plastic abutments ).

Implant Overdentures and Fixed bridges

Our removable implant solutions provide you with quality resorations that utilize the latest technology for a reasonable and consistent price. To best support your every need we have created a full service CAD/CAM dental implant department to restore your cases. All of our pricing will include labour, models, analogues and all lab components. We are working with CAD/CAM companies throughout the world to bring you up to date solutions for your patients individual needs.

 

Implant Overdenture Timescale

In conjuction with Nobel Biocare we can now offer you 'The All-on-4 treatment concept'

This was developed to provide edentulous patients with an efficient and effective restoration using only four implants to support an immediately loaded full-arch prosthesis.

All-on-4 offers clinicians and their patients various clear benefits:

all on 4
  1. Stability even in minimum bone volume

    By tilting the two posterior implants, longer implants can be used in minimum bone volume, increasing bone-to-implant contact and reducing the need for vertical bone augmentation. The tilted posterior implants can be anchored in better quality anterior bone, reducing cantilevers and thus improving support of the prosthesis.
  2. Good clinical results

    Biomechanical measurements show that tilted implants, when part of prosthetic support, do not have a negative effect on the load distribution. The tilting of implants has been used in clinical practice for over a decade and has shown good results.
  3. Planning with NobelGuide

    All-on-4 can be planned and performed using the NobelGuide treatment concept, ensuring accurate diagnostics, planning and implant placement. The NobelGuide Software allows for detailed diagnostics such as identification of available bone, virtual implant placement according to the anatomical situation and prosthetic needs, and ordering of an individualized surgical template. NobelGuide supports minimally invasive flapless techniques as well as surgical access through mini-flaps and full flaps, while the surgical template ensures guided and therefore exact implant placement.
  4. Prosthetic flexibility

    With All-on-4, patients benefit from an immediate implant-supported restoration, as a provisional prosthesis is screwed onto the implants right after surgery. Final solutions for All-on-4 include both fixed prostheses, such as NobelProcera Implant Bridge Titanium with acrylic veneering, or individual NobelProcera crowns cemented to the bridge framework, and removable solutions, such as acrylic overdentures on a NobelProcera Implant Bar Overdenture.
  5. Increased efficiency

    Efficient treatment flow results in shorter treatment times and improved patient satisfaction.
