Denture stabilisation with dental implants

Serving patients throughout Solihull, Shirley and Knowle

Many patients with no remaining teeth or teeth that need removal, do not want to wear conventional removable dentures. These traditional dentures can become uncomfortable and loose over time as the jawbone shrinks causing eating and speech problems.

We offer an alternative solution at Blossomfield Dental Care using the latest technology and techniques that can change your life. Using dental implants to securely anchor dentures in place, we can recreate your natural smile with teeth, restoring both your smile and your quality of life.

Dental implants help to maintain your facial structures by preserving the remaining bone in your jaws. This minimises wrinkles around the mouth by restoring lost lip-support and markedly improves your ability to chew. With dental implants, you can eat whatever you want and enjoy your food again!

Our implant dentist, Marek Skalka will carefully place titanium implants into the jaw to replacing some of the original roots. Between 4 to 8 implants are needed to securely fix a denture in place.

The dental implants then need to be left for a short time for the bone and gum to heal around them before they can support the final denture, which can take as little as 4 weeks. Once that happens, the titanium becomes one with the bone around it, making the foundation for your denture extremely strong and stable. Marek will then carefully craft and fit your replacement denture, ensuring it blends perfectly with your natural smile.

Marek Skalka has been placing Dental implants since 1999, improving function and restoring many smiles. Our patients have the peace of mind that they can access progressive technology and benefit from a wealth of experience from our implant dentist, Marek.

The benefits of implants

  • Implants look and feel just like natural teeth.
  • Implants provide stability and comfort without affecting healthy teeth.
  • Implants prevent ageing bone loss, by stimulating your bone structure and stabilising the surrounding teeth.
  • Implants can last for many years if you maintain good oral hygiene.


    Are you suitable for treatment?

    Patients must have healthy gums and enough jawbone to support dental implants. At your initial consultation Marek will use x-rays and scans to establish if pre-treatment is required and will explain this further.

    Some patients may need to see a hygienist for a course of treatment to ensure their gums are strong and healthy before the dental implant process can begin.

    Marek will also check that there is sufficient bone for an implant to be placed successfully at this initial consultation. If there is insufficient bone you may need to need pre-treatment before your dental implants can be placed. This may include oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting, bone expansion or sinus lifts.

    Mr Jakub Kozdryk Orthopaedic Surgeon

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had a dental implant placed by Mr Skalka at Blossomfield Dental Care and cannot fault the experience from start to finish. The whole process was meticulously planned, clearly explained, and carried out to the highest standard. What genuinely surprised me was just how comfortable the procedure was — I experienced no pain whatsoever during the treatment, and within 24 hours afterwards I had not had even the slightest discomfort. To put it in perspective, I routinely feel more discomfort after a hygienist appointment than I did following the implant itself. The level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail shown by Mr Skalka and the wider team was outstanding. I’m already looking forward to the next stage of treatment and have complete confidence in their hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mr Skalka and the team at Blossomfield Dental Care to anyone considering dental implant treatment.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    I saw Vik on 29 April. I was feeling quite anxious as I was about to get a filling but he was very kind and explained everything he was doing, which put me at ease. His assistant was also very kind too. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to this dental practice. First class!

    I would definitely recommend this Dentist. I have a really bad phobia of Dentist, due to a couple of bad experiences with them. But I needn't have worried about this one. The surgery is clean, the staff go above and beyond and Aslan the Dentist was really good and explained everything to me. I will be returning to have further treatment.

    Having received treatment from Dr. Skalka for many years I am confident that I will get excellent treatment, considered options, careful execution of treatment with thought to make it as painless as possible and a feeling that my general health is taken into consideration at all times.I am well informed at every stage and over the years there have been points for consideration which the comprehensive info has been a great help and thus the right decisions have been made.My experiences with the hygienists have been very good and I am always fascinated by the advances in technology which appears at every visit.

    I have been seeing marek for many years and he has always looked after me from a child . I would not see anyone else he takes time to ask about me as a person and takes time to explain everything and makes sure I am comfortable . I hope he never retires.

    It's always a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that put the patient at ease upon enetring the practice. I also highly rate my dentist as very professional and friendly.The fact that music is playing all over the practice also helps (in my opinion) to make people feel relaxed.
