Our teeth work in harmony to perform the functions we need to live healthy lives day-to-day.

When even a single tooth is lost, it can significantly disrupt the way your mouth performs and have a detrimental effect on your self-esteem and self-image as well as your chewing function. Don’t worry though. Our single dental implants can restore your mouth to full function and when properly looked after, they can last a lifetime.

What are single dental implants?

Single dental implants replace individual missing tooth roots, and a ‘tooth-like’ element like a crown, dentures or a bridge fits over the top to provide chewing, speaking and aesthetic function. The amazing thing about dental implants is they’re surgically placed, so your jawbone comes to recognise them as a new and real part of the body. This triggers regeneration and growth, which means your face won’t suffer changes as a result of jawbone shrinkage. With jawbone shrinkage comes changes like hollowed cheeks and a protruding chin, which can be incredibly distressing as it can dramatically age the face.

What can I expect during the implant process?

  • Examination of your mouth and jawbone. X-rays are taken to analyse your jawbone density, as this will be a factor in assessing your suitability for implants.
  • Surgical placement of the implant under local anaesthetic (we can offer dental sedation if patients wish). This will take several months to heal.
  • Once healed, your false tooth can be permanently placed over the top.

What makes single dental implants great?

  • All over the world, dental implants are known for being the gold standard mode of tooth replacement.
  • They can last your whole life with the correct care.
  • They’re fixed in place.
  • They’ll feel just like a real tooth.
  • Patients find their confidence soars after replacing missing teeth with implants.
  • Efficient chewing function, just like you had previously when you had your own tooth.
