Implants

A modern, long-term solution for replacing missing teeth.

What are dental implants?

Implants are one way of replacing missing teeth. It is a titanium screw that can replace the root of a tooth when it fails, and just like a tooth root, it is placed into the jawbone. Implants can also be used to support fixed bridges or dentures. Dental implants serve as long-term solutions for replacing missing teeth, if properly maintained and looked after using our recommended daily oral habits and hygiene practices.

Implant treatment normally has two stages. First, the implant is placed in the jaw. Then, when the jaw has healed, replacement teeth are attached to the implant.

Who is suitable for an implant?

Patients with gappy or crooked teeth are ideal candidates for dental implants as one of the most common and popular treatments for replacing missing teeth. When you visit us for your initial consultation, we will first examine the structure of your mouth and bone density to decide whether or not bone augmentation treatment will be necessary before going ahead with dental implants.
