Dental Implants

Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. An implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it acts as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, a crown, bridge, or denture is securely attached to the implant, restoring both the function and appearance of the missing tooth or teeth.

Implants help preserve jawbone structure, maintain facial shape, and provide a stable, fixed alternative to removable dentures. The treatment process typically takes several months and involves careful planning, placement, and restoration, this would be carried out by our Implant Dentist Dr Touraj Razavi. With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups and hygiene appointments, dental implants can last many years and feel just like natural teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Most adults in good general and oral health are suitable. You’ll need healthy gums and enough bone to support the implant. Your dentist will carry out a thorough assessment to ensure implants are the right option for you.
The procedure is always done under local anaesthetic and is generally comfortable. Some mild discomfort or swelling afterward is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants can last 10 years or more, often even a lifetime. Proper care is essential to ensure long-term success.

Care for your implant just like a natural tooth: brush twice daily, floss or use interdental brushes, and see your dentist and hygienist regularly. Good oral hygiene helps prevent any issues around the implant site.

Dental implants are highly aesthetic and closely mimic the look, feel, and function of natural teeth. They are designed to blend seamlessly with your existing smile, making them virtually indistinguishable from your real teeth, so no one will know you have one.
