A dental implant is a fixed option for replacing one or more missing teeth. It supports a crown, bridge or denture and is planned around your bone, gums and bite.

Evaluation and planning

Treatment begins with a clinical examination and imaging to assess bone volume and the position of nearby structures. This helps determine whether an implant is suitable and where it should be placed.

Placement and healing

The implant is placed in a minor surgical procedure. A healing period follows so the implant can integrate with the surrounding bone before the final restoration is fitted.

Caring for your implant

Implants need the same daily care as natural teeth: brushing, cleaning between teeth and regular dental reviews.
