Replace Missing Teeth with Dental Implants
An implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to take the place of a missing tooth root. Once the bone has healed around it, a crown is fitted on top. Because the implant stands on its own, the neighbouring teeth are left untouched — which is the main difference from a bridge. Implants are not suitable for everyone: they depend on having enough bone, healthy gums, and on conditions such as smoking and diabetes being managed. We assess this before recommending one.
A dental implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, a custom crown is attached, creating a restoration that's virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
- Long-lasting when kept clean and reviewed regularly, though no restoration is permanent
- Prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure
- No impact on adjacent healthy teeth
- Eat, speak, and smile with confidence
- Natural appearance and comfortable fit
