Implants

Den­tal Implants are an excel­lent advance­ment in mod­ern den­tistry. In most sit­u­a­tions they are the best replace­ment for miss­ing teeth. With care­ful plan­ning and treat­ment den­tal implants can rebuild your smile with reli­able, com­fort­able, long last­ing tooth replacements.

Replace­ments that bite and chew just like real teeth, look and feel fresh and nat­ur­al. Done well they have a very favourable long term suc­cess rate and can help sup­port your oth­er teeth with­out tak­ing any­thing away from them.

In many cas­es den­tal Implant treat­ment is straight­for­ward and car­ried out under local anaes­thet­ic like oth­er den­tistry is. Patients will often say they were sur­prised at how easy their treat­ment was, and how their new den­tal implant feels like a real tooth after just a short while. Den­tal implant treat­ment usu­al­ly takes months to com­plete.

This long treat­ment time allows for the sup­port­ing bone and gums to grow and remod­el to the new Implants. This also helps afford­abil­i­ty as pay­ments for the work are spread over the treat­ment time.

Some peo­ple aren’t good can­di­dates for Den­tal Implants, a gen­er­al health mat­ter or insuf­fi­cient jaw bone may make oth­er den­tal treat­ments bet­ter choic­es for your mouth.

If you are in the posi­tion of know­ing a tooth or teeth will be lost soon we can help plan your tran­si­tion to implants and some­times even place your implant at the time of the tooth extrac­tion. These implants are called Imme­di­ate implants.
