What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone to support replacement teeth or bridges, mimicking the function of natural teeth.
Dental implants:
- Replace missing teeth with a fixed solution.
- Support crowns, bridges, or implant dentures.
- Function in a similar way to natural teeth.
- Designed for long-term durability.

If you’re missing a tooth, dental implants are one of the most effective ways to replace it. They act like natural tooth roots, securely holding a crown in place so we can restore the appearance and function of your original teeth.
Looks and performs like natural teeth
Implants are permanently attached and secure. They are cared for just like natural teeth and enable you to eat whatever you like.
Protects your long-term dental health
Implants help preserve bone in the area of the missing teeth and protect your facial structure. They prevent tooth movement and drifting, which can disrupt your bite.
Eliminates the discomfort and inconvenience of dentures
Implants are cleaned just like natural teeth and don’t cause gum irritation and inflammation commonly associated with dentures.
Preserves healthy neighbouring teeth
Implants don’t require drilling or removing healthy neighbouring teeth, unlike other tooth-replacement options.
Strong and long-lasting
Implants are a very durable, long-lasting solution for missing teeth, with an industry success rate of over 97%.

Am I suitable for dental implants?
Most adults with good oral health are suitable for dental implants. You will need healthy gums and enough jawbone to support the implant. If bone loss has occurred, treatments such as bone grafting may make implant placement possible.
An exam with our dentists will confirm whether implants are the right option for you.
Are dental implants the best way to replace missing teeth?
Dental implants are widely considered one of the most effective ways to replace missing teeth. They are fixed in the jawbone, which allows them to look, feel, and function much like natural teeth.
Compared with dentures or bridges, implants can provide greater stability, comfort, and long-term durability.
How long does dental implant treatment take?
Dental implant treatment usually takes several months.
After the implant is placed, the jawbone needs time to heal and fuse with the implant. This healing process allows the implant to bond naturally with the bone, a process that typically takes 3-6 months.
Once healing is complete, the final crown or replacement tooth is attached.
How long is the recovery after dental implant surgery?
Most people return to normal daily activities, including work, within 1 to 2 days after dental implant surgery.
You may experience mild swelling or discomfort for a few days, which usually settles within about a week.
The implant then continues to heal and bond with the surrounding bone over 3 to 6 months before the final crown is attached. Our dentists will provide clear aftercare guidance to support healing.
Will dental implant results look natural?
Yes. Dental implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth.
Your replacement crown is custom-made to match the colour, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth, helping it blend seamlessly with your smile.
Do dental implants hurt?
Dental implant placement is performed under local anaesthetic, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the procedure.
Some mild soreness or swelling may occur afterwards, but this usually settles within a few days and can be managed with standard pain relief.
We can also provide IV sedation for patients who feel anxious about treatment.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution and can last 20 years or longer with proper care.
The implant itself is very durable, while the crown may need to be replaced after 10-15 years due to normal wear.
What is the success rate for dental implants?
Dental implants have a success rate of over 97%, making them one of the most predictable treatments in modern dentistry.
Certain factors may affect suitability, including:
- Active gum disease.
- Heavy smoking.
- Teeth grinding.
- Poorly controlled diabetes.
During your exam, our dentists will assess these factors and advise whether implants are appropriate for you.
Can I eat and drink normally with dental implants?
Yes. Once healing is complete, dental implants function like natural teeth, allowing you to eat normally.
During the early healing stage, you may need to follow a soft-food diet, but most patients return to their usual diet once the implant has integrated.
Are there any side effects of dental implants?
Dental implants are generally very safe.
Temporary side effects may include:
- Mild swelling or bruising.
- Temporary discomfort.
- Minor bleeding.
Serious complications are rare, and your dentist will explain all risks before treatment.
How much do dental implants cost?
Implant surgical placement, including a crown, starts from £2,575.
If additional procedures are required, such as bone grafting, additional costs start from £745.
During your exam, we will:
- Assess your oral health.
- Confirm whether additional procedures are required.
- Provide a full treatment plan with clear pricing.
What can be done if I don’t have sufficient bone tissue to support implants?
If there isn’t enough bone to support an implant, a bone graft may be recommended.
This procedure rebuilds the bone in the area where the implant will be placed, helping ensure long-term stability.
Our dentists will assess whether this is necessary during your consultation.
Do you accept NHS patients?
Yes. We accept both referred NHS patients and private patients for dental implant treatment.
