A dental implant is the closest alternative to a natural tooth. Designed to seamlessly fill a missing tooth gap, it consists of a biocompatible titanium post that integrates with the jawbone, creating a secure foundation for a beautifully crafted restoration.
A Complete Implant Restoration Includes:
✔ The Implant – A precision-engineered titanium post placed into the jawbone.
✔ The Abutment – A small connector that links the implant to the crown.
✔ The Crown – A custom-designed porcelain or ceramic tooth for a natural finish.

Feeling nervous? You’re in good hands! Our highly skilled implant team ensures a comfortable, seamless experience from start to finish.
Your step-by-step guide to implant success:
✔ Planning & Preparation– Using advanced digital technology, we precisely plan your implant placement.
✔ Implant Placement– A small titanium post is inserted into the jawbone using a quick, minimally invasive keyhole procedure under local anaesthesia.
✔ Healing & Integration– Over the next 12 -20 weeks, the implant naturally fuses with the jawbone, creating a solid foundation.
✔ Final Restoration– Once fully healed, your custom-crafted crown is securely attached. If your gap is visible, a temporary tooth can be provided in the meantime.
✔ Your New Smile!– After 4–6 months, you’ll have a fully restored, confident smile that looks and feels completely natural.

ExploreOn average, the surgical placement takes just 20–30 minutes per implant, although additional time may be needed for extractions or complex cases. Add in healing time and time needed for the implant to fully stabilise in the jaw and the entire process normally takes somewhere between 4-9 months.
Not at all! Most treatments are carried out under local anaesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort, but we also offer light sedation for anxious or nervous patients. Either way, most patients are pleasantly surprised by how quick and painless it is. Some mild tenderness post-surgery is normal but this usually subsides within a few days.
Most healthy adults are suitable candidates. However, conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or heart disease may impact eligibility. Consult with your GP before proceeding.
Smoking can interfere with healing and implant success. We strongly recommend quitting several weeks before treatment and for at least 3–5 months post-procedure to ensure the best outcome.
