Overview
About Dental Implants
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. After it bonds with the bone, a custom crown is fitted on top so the restored tooth looks and functions like a natural tooth.
Unlike dentures, implants do not move while you speak or eat. Unlike bridges, they do not require trimming healthy neighbouring teeth. For many patients, implants are the most complete long-term replacement option.
Treatment details
Who is usually a good candidate?
Most adults with missing teeth can be assessed for implants, but the right plan depends on bone support, gum health, and medical history.
Healthy gums or treatable gum issues
Active gum disease should be stabilised first, which is where periodontist-led care is valuable.
Adequate bone support
Some bone-loss cases can still move forward after grafting or staged treatment.
Stable overall health
Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, or some medical conditions require careful planning but do not always rule implants out.
Patient journey
What to expect
We keep the process clear so you know what is happening at every stage.
Consultation
We examine your teeth, gums, bite, and X-rays to see whether the site is ready for an implant.
Planning
If gum treatment or bone grafting is needed first, we map that out before implant placement.
Placement
The implant post is placed under local anaesthesia in a controlled, comfortable appointment.
Healing
Over the next few months, the implant bonds with the jawbone through osseointegration.
Final crown
Once healing is confirmed, we attach a custom crown matched to your surrounding teeth.

Aftercare
How to help your implant last longer
Brush gently but thoroughly
Keep the implant crown and gumline clean with a soft-bristled brush twice a day.
Clean between teeth daily
Use floss or interdental aids so plaque does not accumulate around the implant site.
Attend review visits
Regular check-ups help catch bite pressure or gum issues early.
Common questions
FAQs about Dental Implants
How long does implant treatment take?
Many cases take a few months because the implant needs time to bond with the jawbone before the final crown is placed.
Are implants painful?
Placement is done under local anaesthesia. Most patients describe pressure during the procedure and manageable soreness afterward.
Can I get an implant if I have bone loss?
Possibly. We assess the bone first and explain whether grafting or staged care is appropriate.
