Dental implants are natural looking replacements for missing teeth. The titanium “root” Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.

Dental implants are an ideal option for people in good general oral health who have lost one or more teeth due to periodontal disease or an injury.

Replacing missing teeth can dramatically improve your smile and the shape of your face!

Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods with confidence and without pain. Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.

Dental implants can be used to support a number of dental prostheses, including crowns, implant-supported bridges or dentures. They can also be used as anchorage for orthodontic tooth movement. Dental Implants stimulate and maintain jaw bone, preventing bone loss and helping to maintain facial features

A minor operation is carried out using special instruments to place the implants into the bone. The gum is then stitched around the implant which is at this stage is level with the surface of the gum.

After a healing period of between six and twelve weeks, a titanium abutment is screwed into each implant. Surgery is not normally required at this stage. An impression is taken for the final replacement teeth and a temporary tooth or bridge may be fitted

The completed teeth are connected to the implants providing a secure, stable and natural looking replacement for what has been lost
