Simple explanation
What are dental implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. After healing, it supports a crown, bridge or other restoration designed to look and function like a natural tooth.
Who can benefit
Dental implants may help if you…
-
One missing tooth
A single gap you would like to close with a fixed, natural-looking tooth.
-
Several missing teeth
More than one space affecting your bite, chewing or confidence.
-
Failing teeth
Teeth that are heavily broken down or have a poor long-term outlook.
-
A loose denture
A denture that moves when eating or speaking and feels unstable.
-
Want a fixed option
You would prefer a fixed replacement rather than something removable.
-
Considering a bridge
You are weighing up a bridge and want to understand the alternatives.
Suitability is confirmed after clinical assessment and, where required, CBCT imaging.

Reassurance
What if I don’t have enough bone?
This is a common question and it is usually manageable. Where bone volume is limited, bone grafting or sinus augmentation may sometimes be recommended to create a stable foundation for the implant.
This is assessed carefully during your clinical examination and CBCT planning, and anything additional will be explained to you clearly before treatment begins.
Treatment options
From a single tooth to a full arch
-
Single tooth implant
For replacing one missing tooth without preparing neighbouring healthy teeth.
-
Multiple missing teeth
Implant-supported solutions can replace several missing teeth.
-
Full-arch / All-on-4
For suitable patients with many failing or missing teeth, fixed full-arch solutions may be discussed after comprehensive assessment.

Questions
Dental implant FAQs
Does implant placement hurt?
Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic. Some temporary soreness or swelling can occur afterwards.
How long does implant treatment take?
Timelines vary. Many cases involve several months of healing before the final restoration.
Can anyone have dental implants?
Suitability depends on oral health, general health, bone volume and other clinical factors.
Do I need a CBCT scan?
CBCT imaging may be recommended when required for safe and accurate planning.
Will I need bone grafting?
Not always. It depends on available bone volume.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene, professional maintenance and regular reviews, implants are designed to provide long-term function, though no treatment can be guaranteed for life.
Can smokers have implants?
Smoking can increase the risk of complications and implant failure. Suitability should be discussed clinically.
Can I have an implant after wearing dentures for years?
Many patients can, but bone volume and treatment needs must be assessed individually.
Will the implant look natural?
The final restoration is custom-made to harmonise with the surrounding teeth and smile.
How much does treatment cost?
Implant placement starts from the advertised price, but the final treatment cost depends on individual requirements.
