Groundbreaking Dental Implant Procedure – First In Ireland

Our Lead Implantologist Dr. Wilson Grigolli is the first oral surgeon in Ireland to perform a brand new treatment using NobelPearl™ new ceramic implants. Due to the significant aesthetic demands on this case, NobelPearl ceramic implants were an ideal solution. The all ceramic system was artistically designed, extremely precise and easy to handle in surgery. Dr. Wilson said “Having been an oral surgeon for almost three decades, I am sure this technology will soon be widely used. The titanium implants have their place for sure, but in highly demanding cosmetic cases, or even for a metal-free, holistic approach, I think the ceramic implants will quickly grow in popularity. As any other surgical technique, experience is essential and planning fundamental”.

What is a Ceramic Implant?

A ceramic dental implant looks exactly like a natural healthy tooth. It is more than an implant – it’s a new tooth. When we talk about healthy teeth, it is not only function that matters. They are also an essential part of your physical appearance – therefore you expect an optimal aesthetic and natural outcome for your dental restorations.

Why should I choose this Dental Implant System?

At Dental House, we use the NobelPearl Ceramic Implant system, a 100% metal-free, two-piece ceramic implant solution with a cement-free internal connection, providing a unique new alternative to titanium. Designed to support a natural soft-tissue appearance, NobelPearl implants can help patients gain the natural esthetic excellence they desire.

What are the advantages of Ceramic Dental Implants?

  • Has a tooth-like colour for highly aesthetic restorations.
  • Offers a metal-free alternative with excellent biocompatibility.

Teeth Whitening will Elevate your Smile

Our New Year, New Smile with Half Price Teeth Whitening Offer is only €150 when You Book and Pre-Pay your Dental Health Review for €50.

What is involved with Teeth Whitening?

Stained or discoloured teeth are a naturally occurring problem that affects a huge amount of people. It is usually brought on by lifestyle choices, ie: drinking tea/coffee/red wine or smoking.

Our cosmetic team of experts can help you with the teeth whitening process that will renew your smile. After your dental health exam and cleaning we will provide you with a whitening kit that has custom-made moulds specifically made for your teeth that you can take home. This is far superior to over the counter kits which can result in harm if used incorrectly plus you don’t see the same whitening results compared to the professional grade kit supplied by our cosmetic team. Only registered dental professionals are legally allowed to administer the correct amount of active whitening chemicals which will give you that beautiful bright smile you’ve always wanted.

Why do I need a Dental Health Review?

It is very important to see your Dentist at least once a year for a complete dental review.  A thorough review can prevent major dental issues from occurring and it ensures your mouth and smile stay healthy all year round.  A complete dental health review provides a solid foundation to any dental treatment plan if you are planning on any restorations or cosmetic dentistry.  Keeping on top of your dental health also promotes a sense of general wellbeing.

What is involved in a Dental Health Review?

If you are a new patient the dentist will ask you about your medical background and you will be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire.  If you are already a patient the dentist will check if there has been any changes since your last visit ensuring that your records are kept up to date.

Oral Examination

During your dental health review the dentist will look both inside and outside your mouth, checking your teeth, gums, tongue, cheeks, roof and floor of mouth.  Your jaw joint and bite will be assessed to check for teeth grinding and muscle clenching.  Any dentures, crowns and existing dental restorations will be checked too.

Xrays

Occasionally the dentist will request an x-ray of your teeth as part of the dental review.  This will allow the dentist to assess the structure of your teeth, sockets, bones and any existing dental restorations in greater detail.  Please make sure to inform your dentist if you are pregnant before any x-rays are taken.

Scale and Polish

Typically after a dental health review your dentist will recommend that you have your teeth scaled and polished.  This will remove any plaque and tartar build up thus improving the health of your gums and of course give you a beautiful smile!

How Long Does a Dental Review Take?

Your Dental House dental health review can take 30-45 minutes depending on whether x-rays are required.   If you are a new patient please allow an extra 10 minutes to check in and fill out your medical questionnaire.

Call Us Today or Book Online and schedule your full Dental Health Review and Cleaning.

If you book and pre-pay your Dental Health Review you can avail of our half price teeth whitening offer.   Offer expires 28th February 2022.

Don’t Forget…If you pay PRSI you may be entitled to a FREE dental health review and a €15 scale and polish, get in contact and our team will check if you qualify.

Dr Wilson Grigolli – Dental Implants Expert at Dental House

Dr Wilson Grigolli DMD PhD is a renowned European implantologist, having placed in the region of 27,000 dental implants to date. He is a specialist in Oral Surgery, Periodontology and Implant procedures.

Dr Wilson Grigolli

Wilson is vastly experienced in the most challenging and unusual surgical cases and is one of the few clinicians in Ireland with the expertise to use the Zygoma Dental Implant procedure. Zygoma dental implants are used in the upper jaw when there is insufficient bone for ordinary implants. They provide support for implant bridgework where there has been a substantial amount of bone loss from the upper jaw, and ordinary implants cannot be used on their own to support a bridge. This is a very specialist procedure and Dental House is one of a few practices in Ireland with the expertise to use such procedures to provide dental implants in Dublin & Maynooth.

Wilson has worked with Dr. Per-Ingvar Branemark the creator of the modern dental implant. He lectures internationally, and is recognised throughout Europe as an expert in dental implant surgery and full mouth rehabilitation.

You may recognise him from the Sky Arts’ documentary “A Wreck Reborn”, which tells the story of Shane MacGowan of The Pogues’ smile makeover.
