Patient Stories – Implants

Elizabeth Moore

Elizabeth has been a long-standing patient with us at the practice. Sadly, one of her previously root-treated teeth broke and needed removing. Elizabeth had an assessment with Dr Andrew Taylor who suggested replacing the tooth with a dental implant.

“This is my second implant. The treatment was second to none. I didn’t feel any pain from start to finish. I am really pleased with my new tooth.”

Lee Trethewey

Lee had multiple missing back teeth, which had meant he had started using his front teeth to chew food. As a result of this, his front teeth had become very worn. Initially, he was considering having treatment completed abroad but decided to go with Wadebridge Dental Care following a friend’s recommendation. He now is so thankful that he chose Wadebridge Dental Care, where all aspects of the treatment were able to be completed under one roof – and just down the road!

“Very professional & friendly service! My nerves & anxiety were quickly put at ease with Andrew’s knowledge & ability. Extremely pleased with the end results, I’m finally able to smile with confidence thanks to Wadebridge Dental!”

Jaqueline Buse – Implant treatment with Dr Andrew Taylor and Implant Crown with Dr Jason Smithson

Jaqueline had bitten into an apple and caused her upper central crown to become loose. She initially attended for an emergency visit, where Dr Rao recemented the tooth but advised it would likely need removal and replacement. Jaqueline then attended for an Implant Consultation with Dr Andrew Taylor and agreed the tooth be removed and replaced with an Implant. Dr Taylor completed the implant treatment and Jaqueline was then referred to World-Renowned Cosmetic Dentist, Dr Jason Smithson, to have the implant crown made and fitted to ensure the best aesthetic result.

Paul Barber

Paul attended initially for an implant consultation with Dr Andrew Taylor. He was missing his upper two front teeth and was interested in options for replacement. Dr Taylor recommended an implant bridge to replace both missing teeth.

Mark Lewis

After receiving a diagnosis that his two premolar teeth were unsavable, Mark began to explore the options for filling the space. He did not want to leave the gap as the teeth were visible and he wanted to maintain function. Since Mark had already previously had an implant on the other side, he knew this was the route he would like to take again. Since finishing the treatment Mark felt like he didn’t even notice they were there and they just looked and felt like ‘normal teeth’. We love hearing how happy our patients are with their results, and we’re so pleased Mark would recommend the treatment to others!

Matthew Wadsworth

Matthews teeth had relapsed following previous orthodontic work as a child, and was also generally unhappy with the aesthetic aspect of his teeth. He initially saw Dr Philippa McNee for a new patient examination, who referred Matthew on to Dr Andrew Taylor for Invisalign, Composite bonding and Implants. Matthew stated that the treatment was “An incredible and life changing experience”

Kenneth Hambly

Kenneth previously had a denture but struggled with it moving during eating. Kenneth saw Dr Andrew Taylor for a Complimentary Implant Consultation to seek a fixed alternative. Implant bridges were suggested to him as a treatment option, allowing the replacement of several missing upper teeth, whilst also giving him a fantastic aesthetic result. Kenneth states he received “First Class Treatment” from the team at Wadebridge Dental Care.

Rosalyn Wood

Rosalyn booked in for an implant consultation with Dr Andrew Taylor as she was unhappy with the space in her smile at the front and disliked wearing her denture. 


“The whole procedure was pain free and every care was taken to make me feel relaxed.”

Now Rosalyn has a fixed alternative to wearing a denture and has a fantastic natural smile!

Olivia Blake

After losing a tooth, Olivia was unhappy with wearing a partial denture and wanted a permanent fixed alternative.

Dr Taylor placed an implant, creating a fantastic full smile. You would never know a tooth was ever missing!

“Excellent process and care throughout. Felt well informed throughout the procedure and put at ease throughout. Both Andrew and every nurse I’ve encountered have been amazing. Highly recommend this dental practice”
