This quick, same-day implant solution for multiple missing teeth can deliver the smile you’ve been dreaming of. Nicknamed ‘teeth-in-a-day’, a temporary set of false teeth can be placed immediately after your surgery, so you won’t have to put up with another minute of living with gaps in your smile.
Immediate, Same-Day Tooth Replacement
Your dentist will place your implants and a temporary set of false teeth during the same appointment. At no point during the treatment journey will you need to live with the stress of having missing teeth.
Restore Lost Confidence
There’s no doubt that missing teeth can stop you smiling as much as you might want to. All-on-4 can eliminate the feelings of self-consciousness that accompany living with tooth loss, helping you to feel more confident every single day.
No More Dietary Limitations
All-on-4 restores a healthy bite and gives you a set of fixed implant-retained teeth that will not move when you chew.
Consultation
If you are new to the practice, a full dental examination will need to be completed, including a set of X-rays. The condition of your soft tissues (gums and tongue) will also be examined.
Once your dentist has explained the implant process and you are happy to proceed, a CBCT scan is taken. This reveals the condition of your jawbone and the areas with the largest bone density.
‘Teeth in a Day’ and Healing Period
Your implants are placed under local anaesthetic, and a temporary set of teeth are screwed in over the top. Your jaw will take between 3-6 months to heal. A dental impression of your mouth is taken during this appointment.
Replacing Your Temporary Teeth
Once your jaw has healed, the temporary teeth can be replaced with a permanent set of teeth, which are designed and fabricated using accurate digital impressions of your teeth.
This innovative system uses a small number of implants to replace a full set of top or bottom teeth. A temporary set of teeth is provided on the same day as your implant surgery while you wait for your jaw to heal and your permanent teeth to be designed and made by our partner dental laboratory.
During your consultation, your dentist will perform a thorough examination to determine your suitability for treatment. Patients who make good candidates for All-on-4 ‘teeth-in-a-day’ may be living with the following:
As a forward-thinking private dental practice, we are committed to offering fair prices to our patients, particularly for procedures as important as tooth replacement. We also offer finance and a payment plan for patients who would prefer to split the cost of their treatment over a period of months.
Practice Principal Dr Jack Acorn has invested in multiple digitised workflow systems and impression-taking technology designed to make the dental implant process straightforward and stress-free for patients. Dr Jack and Dr Rob possess postgraduate certificates and Master’s Degrees in Restorative Dentistry and are highly skilled in the provision of implant placement,
We use only pioneering, world-renowned implant brands, such as Neodent® and Straumann®.

Your mouth is home to hundreds of types of bacteria, and while that might sound alarming, most of them are completely harmless.
Some even help protect your teeth and gums!
But the trouble starts when the wrong ones stick around for too long, especially without daily cleaning between your teeth or regular hygiene visits.
That’s why brushing alone isn’t enough.
And it’s why your hygienist becomes your best friend when it comes to keeping the balance right.

To take it out or not? It’s a big question!
If you’ve been told a tooth might need removing, it’s normal to feel unsure.
No one wants to lose a tooth if it can be saved, and we feel the same!
But sometimes, taking a tooth out is the kindest thing you can do for the rest of your smile.
It might be too damaged to hold a filling or crown, it might be causing repeated infections, or it could be putting pressure on nearby teeth.
We always look at every option carefully. And if taking it out really is the best step, we’ll guide you through it gently with no rushing and no surprises.

Do you floss before or after brushing? 🪥🧵
It might seem like a small thing, but the order does matter!
Flossing first helps lift plaque and food from between your teeth, which gives your toothpaste a better chance to reach those areas properly.
Think of it as setting the stage before the main clean: simple, easy and surprisingly effective!

How does tooth whitening work… and how does it manage to lift stains without harming your teeth? 🤔🦷
It’s all in the science, and it’s gentler than you might think!
Whitening gel releases oxygen, which works its way into the tiny pores on the surface of your teeth.
That oxygen breaks apart stains, lifts discolouration, and leaves your enamel exactly where it should be, intact.
No scrubbing and no damage. Just a fresh, lighter smile!

(Yes, Vicky is our lovely nurse, and she was more than happy to play along 😂)
Just to be clear, we always follow full PPE protocols during real appointments, including masks, visors and gloves.
But now and then, we all need a little laugh between treatments!

Porcelain veneers are thin, handcrafted shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth to refine shape, smooth edges, close small gaps, or improve discolouration.
They`re custom-designed for you, matched to your smile, your bite, and your goals with precision in shade, fit, and surface texture.
The goal isn’t to change your smile. It’s to enhance what’s already there in a way that feels subtle, balanced and completely natural.

It’s World Chocolate Day, and we’re here for it! 🍫
Yes, you can enjoy your favourite chocolate without putting your teeth at risk, but a little extra care goes a long way.
Here are a few simple tips:
✔️ Rinse with water after eating
✔️ Wait a while before brushing, your enamel needs time to recover
✔️ Try to eat the chocolate all in one go, rather than spreading it out over the day
Dark chocolate tends to be kinder on your teeth. The chewy, sticky ones like to linger longer than they’re welcome. Your teeth notice, even if you don’t.
Keep enjoying the treats. Just don’t forget to stay on top of your dental routine. A professional hygiene visit is a great way to give your mouth a fresh start.

How’s your daily routine looking?
A few small habits can make a big difference to your smile!
Brushing, flossing and popping in for a check-up now and then help keep everything clean, calm and under control.
It’s not about being perfect but about giving your teeth and gums the attention they deserve.

"Aren’t you a bit young for that?”
It’s something we hear quite often, but wrinkle-reduction treatments are not about age, they’re about how you feel.
Many people in their twenties and thirties choose to start early. Not to chase perfection, but to keep things looking soft, natural, and in balance before lines begin to settle in.
If you’re curious or have a few questions before taking that step, we’re always happy to talk things through with you.

If your gums bleed when you brush or looking a little reddish in colour, it’s your mouth gently asking for some care.
No need to panic, it’s simply a sign that things could do with a bit of attention.
A hygiene visit can help settle everything down, clear away what your toothbrush can’t quite reach, and keep your gums feeling clean and healthy.
You don’t need to wait until things feel worse. We’re ready when you are.

Are your veneers starting to feel a little lack lustre?
Veneers do not last forever. Over time, they can lose their brightness or begin to look bulky, especially if they were placed several years ago.
If you are thinking about a refresh, we take great care in removing old veneers gently, preserving the natural tooth underneath. From there, we design new veneers that suit who you are now, softer in shape, updated in shade, and beautifully balanced.
The result is still you, just a fresher, more refined version.
If you have been thinking about upgrading your veneers, we would be happy to talk you through the process.

Feeling nervous before an appointment is so common, and we never take it lightly!
Ritt came to see Dr Acorn recently, feeling anxious about treatment.
We’re really proud to hear how supported they felt throughout the visit.
Taking time to explain each step, keeping things calm, and making sure patients feel looked after from the moment they walk in—that’s what we aim for every single day.
Ritt, thank you so much for your kind words.
We’ll be sure to pass them on to Dr Acorn, your lovely nurse, and our front-of-house team who’ll be smiling when they see this.

It’s National Teeth Whitening Day, and we’re all for a bit of extra sparkle. ✨🦷
Whitening isn’t about looking like someone else.
It’s about feeling a bit fresher when you smile, brightening things up in a way that still feels like you.
If your teeth have picked up a little extra colour over time, you’re not alone.
Tea, coffee and everyday life all leave their mark, and that’s exactly what whitening helps with.
Our whitening treatments are safe, gentle and done properly by people who know your smile.

Here’s to the dads who say they’re fine, but grip the chair just a little tighter during a check-up. 😅🦷
The ones who forget to book their own appointment but always remind everyone else to brush before bed.
The ones who pretend they’re not bothered, but still ask if their smile looks alright before a big photo.
You keep everything going, make us laugh when it’s needed most, and somehow still manage to leave the practice with a free toothbrush and a story.
Happy Father’s Day to all the brilliant dads, grandads and father figures in our Creffield Lodge family.
We’re so glad you’re part of the place!

Brushing your teeth is great... but your tongue’s been feeling a bit left out. 👅🤷♂️
Most of the bacteria in your mouth live on your tongue.
It’s warm, textured, and the perfect hiding place.
Giving it a little clean each day can help with that fuzzy feeling, keep things fresher, and give your whole mouth a better start.
No need to overthink it. A gentle swipe with your toothbrush or a tongue cleaner will do the trick!
