James of Canterbury’s All-On-X Implants Makeover

A healthy smile is more than just aesthetics—it’s the gateway to enjoying life’s simple pleasures. From savouring your favourite meals to speaking confidently and connecting with others, your teeth play a huge role in your everyday well-being. So, when dental issues like infections or missing teeth arise, they can throw your whole routine off balance.

James came to us at With U Dental, referred by a colleague, after experiencing serious complications from an earlier implant procedure. His implant had fractured, leading to a painful infection. Years of dental repairs and a misaligned bite had worn him down. He was ready for a long-lasting, transformative solution.

What Were The Issues With His Teeth?

  • Missing functional lower teeth for chewing
  • Fractured implant on the lower left side causing infection
  • Incorrect bite leading to constant breakages of dental work

What We Did for His Smile Makeover:

  • Immediate removal of the infected implant
  • Placed 6 implants on both the upper and lower jaw, all under general anaesthesia
  • Provided custom nightguards to protect his teeth during sleep

The Results:

From the moment we removed the infected teeth and placed the new implants, James felt an immediate shift. Within just two days, we fitted him with temporary bridges, and he was back to eating comfortably—no more pain, no more hesitation. His new smile looked natural, and he could enjoy his meals without a second thought.

Three months later, we upgraded those temporary bridges to something more durable: a titanium-reinforced bar with a zirconia bridge. The result? A strong, long-lasting solution, perfect for his powerful bite. To keep everything in great shape, we also provided custom nightguards for added protection while he sleeps.

James now comes in every six months for regular check-ups and cleanings to ensure everything stays in perfect condition. Each time, both he and his family express their happiness and gratitude. Not only did we restore his smile, but we also returned him his ability to enjoy life’s everyday moments—whether it’s eating his favourite foods or socialising with friends.
