Dental Implants
Dental Implants are the most advanced and effective solution for people
with missing teeth
Why would I require dental implants?
Our Implant Treatment Fee starts from £2100 per Implant. See our fees guide for further details.
Gaps in your teeth not only detract from an otherwise beautiful smile but can also create problems for other teeth as they become free to drift in to the space once occupied by the missing tooth. This means that gaps can start to appear adjacent to the removed tooth and teeth in the opposing jaw may start to drift in to the newly found space in the opposite jaw. This is something that we should be prevented as once movement takes place it can be more complicated to correct. The loss of a tooth may also cause a change in facial profile as the bone starts to shrink. In addition, whenever a tooth is lost more load is placed on the adjacent teeth when we chew. This is more likely to lead to excessive wear and fractures if any of those teeth are weak & this is another reason why it may be desirable to fill in the gap left by a missing tooth. When several teeth are missing, other solutions such as a dental bridge may not be feasible & we then have to consider more sophisticated options such as dental implants.
Dental Implants are a predictable and time tested answer to tooth loss. They look and feel completely natural and are suitable for one or several or all missing teeth.
Dental Implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone, acting as an firm anchor. Over time the jawbone will attach itself to the Implant, enabling replacement teeth to be permanently fastened into the place. Crowns, a Bridge, or Denture may then be attached to the Implant with the help of a holding screw or cement.

Implant Supported Bridge
|
The ideal patient for dental implants has good general and oral health, and must have adequate bone available to support the Implant. Implants offer many benefits to patients, including:
Aesthetics and confidence
Implants look and feel just like natural teeth. They may also improve your confidence and self-image.
Function:
Your Dental Implants will act just like real teeth. You will be able to eat and chew again without pain or irritation.
Support:
Dental Implants maintain your bone structure and support your facial tissues. They can reduce or eliminate bone atrophy, which causes "shrinkage" or facial cosmetic changes.
Tooth-saving advantages:
The quality of the adjacent teeth is not sacrificed because they do not have to be prepared to accept a bridge that is the more traditional alternative.
Success Rate:
The success rate of Dental Implants is very high and they are considered an excellent option for tooth replacement. They look and feel natural and can be know last for 20+ years if looked after well. Call us today on 0151 707 1811
