Dental implants are the best way to replace missing teeth. There are many dental implants to choose from and many dentists that provide and beyond. However, how do you choose a dental implant dentist? There are 3 simple questions that should be asked:

1. Level of training and experience

2. Evidence of case studies and testimonials

3. Evidence behind the proposed implant

Once this has been established, then trust within your dental implant dentist is a crucial factor. Price should never be the deciding factor in such an important decision. In our case, our answers to the above questions are:

1. Dr Nissit Patel has a wealth of experience and has trained at the most advanced institutes and universities. He has achieved the title of Master of Clinical Dentistry in Prosthodontics with distinction, awarded by King's College, London.

2. Dr Nissit Patel has a large portfolio of cases to demonstrate excellence in dental implants. His patients are also happy to provide testimonials.

3. Dr Nissit Patel uses Astra implants, which is one of the most researched dental implants and evidenced based.

This year we were nominated for the Best Dentist in London award. Unfortunately, we did not win but it was a great achievement to reach the final and achieve the recognition of the hard work put in by all of the staff members. We strive for excellence is all apsects of dental care and will aim to improve our services in the upcoming year. We do not believe in mediocrity. Please view our case studies and case of the month series to view the quality of dentistry that we provide. To book your initial appointment, please call or email us.

We do not believe in average or mediocrity. We always strive for excellence. An example of this is below, where the patient presented with two heavily decayed teeth. Once the decay was removed, Dr Nissit Patel prescribed a porcelain onlay and a composite white filling. 

The difference is clear with completely tooth like restorations.
 

We are very proud to announce that Progressive Dentistry has been shortlisted for the Best Dental Practice in London by the Dentistry Awards 2012. The Dentistry Awards are the most prestigious and recognised awards in the dental profession and to be shortlisted is a great honour. We are dedicated to delivering dental excellence with a truly personal service and this nomination underlines our ethos. However, we will continue to improve and learn to offer the very best dental care in London and the UK. In 2010 our Principal Dentist, Dr Nissit Patel, won the title of Best Young Dentist in London.

A recent study by the European Commission has recommended phasing out the use of dental amalgam owing to mercury's negative impact on the environment. The study also stated that some dentists are ''reluctant to change their current practice and invest in new equipment to handle mercury free fillings''. 

At Progressive Dentistry, we do NOT use any mercury containing metal fillings. Dr Nissit Patel says '' I would not want a metal filling placed in my mouth or in my children so I will certainly not consider placing them for my patients. With modern dentistry and the development of adhesive dentistry, white tooth coloured restorations can be placed predictably and safely with fantastic aesthetic results.'' The options vary from direct composite fillings, to indirect porcelain fillings and crowns. We constantly invest in the latest technology and materials, to offer our patients the very best in dentistry today. 

If you would like to change your metal fillings, please contact us today. You may be surprised at what we can offer.

Dr Nissit Patel recently attended a lingual brace masterclass conference. The speakers were from around the world and recognised experts in the field.

We strongly believe in continuing our education and refining our skills to provide the most progressive dental treatment available. To find out more, please contact us on 0207 7311162.
