Dental Implant treatment is a well established, safe and long-lasting teeth replacement solution. Replacing missing teeth is important in order to keep your teeth, gums and jawbone healthy. A face without teeth can change its shape and become saggy. Dental Implants help to retain your natural face structure and shape which can greatly boost your confidence and even make you look younger.

A dental implant is a small but very strong post made from biocompatible metals or ceramics. Under local anesthetic, it is inserted into the jaw bone in place of the missing tooth root and acts as a support for the tooth. Dental implant therapy is today’s long-term, state of the art restoration technique that can cover all indications. It has been scientifically tested and used in the last three decades by qualified dentists and surgeons worldwide.
Diagnosis and decision-making
X-ray images and a CBCT scan are taken and after gathering the information, the possible treatment options are assessed. The advantages and disadvantages of the various solutions are openly discussed so that you are well-informed on every aspect of the procedure before making a decision.
Sufficient bone: Sufficient bone must be present in order for implantation to go ahead. We offer a number of solutions to replace missing bone. There are patients who have insufficient bone and require augmentation, for example if a tooth has been missing for a long time and the jaw has already receded.
Insertion of the implant
The dental implant is surgically inserted under local anesthesia. A tooth may be placed on the implant at time of surgery for the healing stage.
Healing phase
The healing phase is 7-10 days. During the next 8-12 weeks the bone around the implant grows and integrates with the implant surface – a process called osseointegration. Good oral hygiene is vital in the healing stage of the treatment. Once healed, this artificial root acts as a base for fixing individual crowns, multi-tooth bridges, or replacing all teeth.
The restoration is put in place
The dental laboratory uses a 3D Digital scan of the implant site to produce the crown, bridge or denture.
The dentist will place the restoration after the dental implant has healed.
Aftercare
Implants are an excellent option and investment in your health. With the right aftercare, they can last for a lifetime. For such a long-term success, taking care of your implant is important. As with natural teeth, implants require the same regular check-ups and conscientious oral hygiene. Once you follow these guidelines, your implants can be maintained for decades.
Dental Implants start from £2500 all inclusive for a single implant to replace a missing tooth. We include a 3 year warranty on all implants. See our full price guide here.
The initial investment for dental implant treatment varies on how many implants are needed and if bone augmentation is required. A cost plan will be developed only when all of these aspects have been addressed, and in some cases, dental implants may be more economical in the longer term that other options.
Dental Implants are a well-proven, state-of-the-art medical dental technique that has been scientifically tested and used for decades by dentists and surgeons worldwide. Depending on the condition of each patient, potential risk factors are:
- poor oral hygiene
- smoking
- osteoporosis
- diabetes
Your dentist will evaluate whether dental implants are the best option for you
Dental implants are generally inserted under local anesthetic to help minimize discomfort during the operation and the majority of patients report minimal discomfort in the healing phase.
It is possible to insert implants as soon as the jaw has stopped growing. Therefore, in young patients, dental implants can only be placed once their jaw bones are fully developed. At the other end of the spectrum, there is no age limit, given of course that the patient does not display any significant medical risk factors. This will be evaluated by the dentist.
In some cases it is possible to place teeth immediately. In other cases we may wait for the bonding process (osseointegration) to take place, which usually takes 8-12 weeks. In this time, the implant reaches the stability needed for it to bear weight like a natural tooth. As always, healing times can vary depending on the individual condition and indication.
Long-term surveys have shown that Straumann® Implants have very high survival rates.* Patients can count on reliable solutions as Straumann makes no compromises on quality. According to a survey carried out with 10,000 patients in Germany**, 97 percent of those questioned were “extremely happy” or “happy” with their implant-supported restorations.

Impeccable oral hygiene is vital before an implant can be placed. After insertion, teeth need to be carefully looked after, irrespective of whether they are real or artificial. Diligent oral hygiene helps to ensure satisfactory results.
Titanium is a biocompatible metal. This means it is non-toxic and well-tolerated by the body. Implants made from titanium bond very well to living bone and have been used for decades in the medical device industry. To this day, there has been no documented case of any allergic reaction to titanium. Because of these attributes, titanium dental implants can last for decades. If you are looking for a metal-free alternative, there are options with ceramic implants. They are made from high-strength ceramic and designed to achieve maximum functional and esthetic demands. In cases of thin or recessed gums, the implant will not shimmer through as it has the color of a natural tooth.
