Dental implants
Replacing a missing tooth with an implant in the jawbone and a crown on top, for suitable cases.
An implant is a small post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, with a crown fixed on top. Not every case is suitable: it depends on gum health, the amount of bone, general health and factors such as smoking.
It starts with a careful assessment that may include imaging, and a discussion of alternatives such as bridges or removable dentures.
What to expect
- An assessment and written treatment plan before starting.
- Treatment happens in stages, with healing time before the crown is fitted.
- Daily care and regular follow-up are essential afterwards.
