Implants

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of a metal post. They are surgically positioned into the jawbone beneath your gums.

How do Dental Implants Work?

Implants are fused to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth, such as Dentures and bridges. They create a secure fit which helps dentures and bridges — as well as individual crowns placed over implants — feel more natural than conventional bridges or dentures.

The usually length of process from start to finish can take between 3-9 months depending on the individual patients healing.

You need to have healthy gums and adequate bone to support an implant. You must also commit to keeping these structures healthy.

Our Implant consultation fee is £100.00, this cost is separate from any additional costs.

During your consultation you will receive;

• A full oral mouth Examination
