- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

All going great
Went for another clean and checkup.
Thought it was X-ray as well, but ended up just an unscrew, clean and rescrew.
Was different to last time, different nurses and ended up taking 90 mins which included over 30 Mins of sitting in chair with no teeth waiting.
Nurse kept sipping out trying to find the ‘screw in nurse’. Later I was told they had an ‘emergency’ but it felt like they were just busy and slow.
Anyways, 2 days later and composite came out of one of the front implant holes.
After I emailed my implant dentists and telling them what had happened and telling them about my 90 min day in chair and that I live a 4hr round trip from their clinic they organised for me to see local Dentist in my home town.
He was ok, inexperienced with all on four, but packed the hole with tape and composite.
All good.
Then today I notice a top hole has been exposed, that is the composite has come out.
So I am thinking of visiting a local Dentist who is experienced with implants to repack it and maybe to become my new go to doctor.
The Dentist I went to for implants, Bond St, did a great job, but they are a 4hr round trip. Not bad for a 12 monthly visit, but not doable for these small issues.
Weird as last composite lasted 12 months, this one just a few days.
Dissapointing.
Anyone else had issues with holes being exposed by the ‘filling’ falling out ?
I’m hoping a local implant Dentist can take over my maintenance and cleaning

15 month update and removal and clean
Went in for my second hygienist appointment and this time my teeth were removed for a clean. I was a bit scared going in, but it was quick and easy as. No pain, no feeling of pressure or anything. The hygienist rubbed some anti bacterial gel on implants and gave teeth a clean. Upper was clean as, lower had some calculus built up, need to floss a bit more there.
Back in 6 months for head X-ray to see if implants are all ok and then 12 months after that for another clean.
Have been given a blue floss, which is thinner than the green one.
Still very happy.

12 months now !
Wow. It's been 12 months. What a ride. I'm very happy so far. A couple of minor issues, main one being the 'temp filling' over one hole falls out. But it's no biggie. It's kinda like having a small chip on one tooth.
In 4 months I go in to have them removed and cleaned.
My cleaning is going great, they feel great and I'm so very lucky to have had this procedure done. It feels good knowing I will have white straight teeth for the rest of my life.
Here's some pics I just took. How's do I look ?
