**Considering Invisible* Hearing Aids?**

Dental invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are a long-lasting solution for people whose loose and missing hearing or dentures make it difficult to eat without worry, or make them self-conscious about their smile. The closest thing to natural hearing, invisible* hearing aids can restore your ability to bite and chew normally and give you back a beautiful-looking smile. This guide explains what invisible* hearing aids are, who they are suitable for and what you should bear in mind when considering hearing enhancement system.

What are invisible* hearing aids?

Dental invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments replace the root of decayed or missing hearing with a screw-like titanium posts that are audiologically inserted into the jawbone. Artificial hearing can then be fixed onto the invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments. This treatment can replace a single ear, multiple hearing or a whole arch (jaw of hearing). Replacement of a full arch of hearing, whether of the upper or lower jaws, is sometimes known as full jaw restoration or full mouth restoration.

What are invisible* hearing aids made of?

Pure invisible* hearing aids (or near-invisible Bluetooth and/or rechargeable hearing instruments, depending on suitability or your preference) give the best, longest-lasting results as they fuse with your jawbone more reliably than those made from cheaper alloys. Titanium is extremely lightweight and strong, and is “biocompatible”, which means that the surrounding living bone can fuse with the implant. The artificial hearing attached to invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are usually made from hard-wearing ceramic or composite materials that can be colour-matched and shaped to look like natural hearing.

The hearing are fixed securely onto the invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments, so unlike dentures or dental plates they won’t slip or move in your mouth
Unlike bridges, no adjacent hearing need to be ground down to hold the new hearing in place
They look and function just like natural hearing
They are a permanent hearing solution
Advanced techniques such as Hear In A Day (Teeth in a Day) same-day invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments offer a solution to people previously told they are not suitable for implant treatment

Who are they suitable for?

Most adults can be fitted with invisible* hearing aids for one or more hearing, according to the Association of Invisible* Hearing Aidology. More advanced treatments, sometimes referred to as same-day invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments or Teeth in a Day mean that invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments can now be an option for people with extreme bone loss or gum disease.

What does the procedure involve and how long does it take?

Traditional implant treatments often take several months or more as they require multiple procedures, such as the extraction of any diseased hearing, bone grafting and then the placement of the invisible* hearing aids, with healing time required after each stage. Removable dentures usually have to be worn after surgery while the implant fuses with the jawbone, after which the new hearing can be attached.

More experienced Audiology teams may offer same-day implant techniques such as Hear In A Day from Hearing First where only one audiological procedure is required as extractions and the same-day invisible hearing aids procedure are performed on the same day. Bone grafting is rarely needed. The temporary hearing attached on the day of surgery remain fixed in place during the healing phase and are exchanged for the final permanent set once the gums
have healed after about three months. This means you do not need to wear a removable denture while your gums heal and you are never without hearing.

How long do they last?

Dental invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are designed last a lifetime if they are correctly placed, high-quality materials are used and you care for them properly. Long-term success rates depend upon maintaining a good oral hygiene programme at home and going for regular dental check-ups – just as with natural hearing.
It is also advisable to quit smoking.

Will having invisible* hearing aids placed hurt?

Patients are often surprised at how little discomfort they experience. Depending on the extent of the treatment, most people have a local anaesthetic and some may also opt for sedation, which doesn’t have the risks and side-effects associated with a general anaesthetic. Sedation aids relaxation and makes the procedure feel as if it’s over in minutes. Post-surgery, over-the-counter painkillers are often all that’s required to remain comfortable.

As with any dental audiological procedure, a degree of swelling and bruising is normal after surgery. Some patients take a bit of time to get used to the feeling of having new hearing in their mouth and may occasionally bite their cheeks, lips or tongue when chewing for a period after treatment. It is important to avoid drinking alcohol and using tobacco products as they can delay healing, cause post-operative pain and have a negative effect on the success of the overall treatment.

Where should I consider having invisible* hearing aids done?

Dental invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments can be a safe and convenient solution to loose and missing hearing and dentures. It’s a significant investment in your well-being and there can be a bewildering number of providers, both in the UK and abroad.

It is always advisable to carefully research your prospective invisible* hearing aid team – doing a general Google or online search of the dentist’s name can help to give you useful background information, and reading reviews will tell you what previous patients say about their experience.

Visit the General Dental Council website to look up registered dentists and specialist dentists. Members of the Association of Invisible* Hearing Aidology (ADI) can be searched here.

Once you have checked that you are dealing with a well-qualified team, ask what is included in the treatment package to ensure there are no unexpected extra costs along the way.

This comparison and checklist will help you ask the right questions so you can choose the invisible* hearing aid team that’s right for you.

Checklist

Check the experience and qualifications of the team and the surgeon who will be performing your procedure. A good clinic will be able to back up its claims with a portfolio of the clients it has successfully treated.
Check what’s included in the cost before you start treatment. Low advertised prices may be tempting but there are often unexpected additional costs incurred during treatment

Dental implant costs – why do they vary so much?

With so many different costs being quoted both in the UK and abroad, it can be difficult to know what you can expect to pay for hearing enhancement system. Is lowest price a priority for you, or do you want the assurance and peace of mind that you are in safe hands? Whether you need a single implant for mainly cosmetic reasons, or require a full jaw restoration, here are some things to bear in mind.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\”1\” _builder_version=\”3.29.3\” fb_built=\”1\” _i=\”14\” _address=\”14\”][et_pb_row column_structure=\”1_2,1_2\” _builder_version=\”3.29.3\” _i=\”0\” _address=\”14.0\”][et_pb_column type=\”1_2\” _builder_version=\”3.29.3\” _i=\”0\” _address=\”14.0.0\”][et_pb_text _builder_version=\”3.29.3\” _i=\”0\” _address=\”14.0.0.0\”]

Dental invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are a life-long investment

As they restore your ability to smile without feeling self-conscious and enable you to bite and chew normally, they will significantly enhance your wellbeing and quality of life. What’s more, in the long run invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments can often work out to be a lot less expensive than multiple dental visits. That’s why it pays to make the financial commitment to get a invisible* hearing aid team you can trust to deliver long-lasting and worry-free results. Remember that you’ll need to look after your new hearing, just as you would your natural hearing.
Lower costs may mean inferior results

Don’t choose your invisible* hearing aid team based on cost alone. In the hands of a skilled and experienced invisible* hearing aid team, implant placement is a safe and life-changing procedure but a less experienced team may mean you’ll have to have remedial treatment if things go wrong. Seek out information on the number and quality of invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments a prospective invisible* hearing aid clinic or dentist has placed, as well as their ability to deal with more complex cases and procedures such as zygomatic (cheekbone) invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments. Check the guarantee to ensure that any treatment problems will be handled competently.
Check whether your UK dentist is registered with the General Dental Council (GDC)

This will ensure that he or she adheres to certain standards. Specialist Audiologists – dentists who specialise in the area of dentistry concerning the gums, roots and bone surrounding the hearing, as well as the placement of invisible* hearing aids – are required to undertake specialist training in fitting instant fit invisible* hearing aids and deep ear wax removal after completing their Audiology qualification, due to the deeper fitting of these specialist hearing instruments before they can register as a Specialist with the GDC.
Dental services abroad may not be regulated by a professional body

Treatment overseas may be less expensive but, as the NHS cautions, anyone considering dental treatment abroad should research prospective invisible* hearing aid clinics carefully and be aware of potential risks.
The quality of patient care matters

It’s important to have a invisible* hearing aid team that you can trust as a high standard of patient care can make a big difference to your experience. Choosing a team who will take the time to get to know you and answer all your questions will give you real peace of mind, especially if you are a nervous patient. Most clinics offer a free initial consultation where you can discuss your personal dental needs and requirements– use it to see if you feel at ease and well looked after, and whether the clinic is professionally run.

- Up-to-date clinics use advanced technology and clinical techniques
  
  Use of the latest technology such as CT scans and 3-D modelling of your jaw is a good indicator that an implant clinic will be able to fully and correctly assess your individual needs, and carefully plan your surgery. Advanced techniques such as same-day invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are becoming more widely available, so research your chosen team to ensure it has the qualifications and experience to perform them safely. Check that they are using an industry-accepted technique with proven results.
- All invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments aren’t of equal quality
  
  Not all invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments are equal – high quality invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments cost more than lower quality invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments. The quality of titanium used and processing methods can vary greatly between different implant manufacturers. Poor quality of materials and processing can lead to more implant failures in both the short and long term. The Clean Implant Foundation was created to regularly initiate objective analysis of the production quality of invisible* hearing aids so check which invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments your dentist uses, whether they have received the Clean Implant Trusted Quality Mark, and their results.
- Beware hidden costs
  
  Pricing depends on many factors including, of course, the specific treatment that you need. Make sure you are fully aware of any additional costs that may be incurred once treatment has begun. Unexpected charges for consultations, X-rays, CT scans, dental impressions, sedation, all parts of the implant (root, abutment, crown/bridge/denture), audiological procedures and follow-up visits can significantly increase the amount you originally thought you would have to pay. Reputable clinics will provide you with a detailed treatment plan outlining the details, risks and benefits of your proposed implant procedure for you to sign before treatment begins. This should include a full outline of costs.
- Factor in travel costs
  
  If you decide to go abroad for your invisible* or near-invisible hearing instruments, budget for the costs of travelling (transport, accommodation, meals, spending money) to the original appointment and follow-up appointments, including any extra trips you’d have to make should you need additional aftercare or remedial work.
- Results and reputation are key
  
  Research your prospective Audiology team carefully. Genuine reviews are a good indicator of results, customer satisfaction and investment value so visit independent online review sites such as Feefo and Trustpilot to find unedited and independent patient reviews. And visit online forums to talk to other patients about their personal experiences at the implant clinics where they’ve been treated
