Dental Implants

We are here for you at every step

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from a safe metal called titanium. They’re placed into your jawbone and used to support a crown (artificial tooth), bridge, or full denture. Think of them as a strong foundation for new teeth that look, feel, and function like your natural ones. They’re a long-term solution that restores confidence, comfort, and the ability to eat well again.

Before appointment:

Consultation & Planning

We assess your overall health, take X-rays, and determine if your jawbone is suitable. This is your chance to ask questions and share concerns.

Who Are Implants For?

Ideal if you:

  • Have one or more missing teeth
  • Are frustrated with loose or uncomfortable dentures
  • Have difficulty chewing certain foods
  • Want a fixed, natural-looking solution
  • Value long-term comfort and convenience

During appointment:

Implant Placement

A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia. It’s a safe, comfortable procedure — most people say it’s easier than expected.

After Appointment:

Healing & Integration (3–6 months)

Your body naturally fuses bone to the implant, creating a strong foundation.

Final Tooth or Denture Placement

Once healed, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached, designed to look and feel natural.

Things to Consider

  • Healing takes a few months before final tooth placement
  • Cost starts from £2,500 per implant
  • Some health conditions may need to be managed first
  • Smoking can reduce healing and success rates — quitting is highly encouraged
