Dental Implants

Are you unhappy with gaps caused by missing teeth? Do you wear dentures but find them clumsy or uncomfortable?

If so, then Tralee Dentist Dr. Colm O’Loghlen may be able to help you with dental implants. Dr. O’Loghlen has completed extensive training to enable him to expertly provide all aspects of dental implant treatment.

In many cases the implants can have teeth attached to them right away. Dr. O’Loghlen is proud to be one of the few dentists in Ireland providing “teeth in a day”, also known as the all-on-4 concept. This treatment allows patients to switch from dentures to fixed teeth in only one day! Dr. O’Loghlen has placed hundreds of dental implants in Tralee and in the UK over the last 10 years. He uses internationally recognized implant products and all teeth are made by reputable Irish laboratories, ensuring quality and safety.

Implant placement is very straightforward although some discomfort is to be expected afterwards. Sedation is available for nervous patients. Once the implant is placed, subsequent appointments are very simple and painless. Nothing will ever be as natural as your own teeth but dental implants are the next best thing. Clinical studies over the last 20 years support their use with excellent success rates in patients of ALL ages. Health insurance will pay towards the cost of dental implants in certain cases. Tax relief is available for most implant treatments.
