Single Dental Implants

The implant itself is a small post made from medical-grade titanium. This material is biocompatible, meaning your body accepts it naturally. Once healed, a ceramic crown is fitted on top to recreate the visible tooth.

The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during placement. Most patients describe the recovery as surprisingly mild, similar to having a tooth removed.

From planning to the final crown, treatment usually takes several months. This allows time for the implant to integrate fully with the bone. The result is a stable foundation that lasts.

Most adults are suitable, but adequate bone is needed to support the implant. We use digital radiographs to assess this accurately. If bone levels are low, there may still be options available.

No. Your crown is crafted to match the shade, shape and proportions of your natural teeth. Once fitted, it should be indistinguishable.

Implants are cared for in the same way as natural teeth: brushing, flossing and regular dental visits. Good oral hygiene is key to long-term success.

A missing tooth can allow neighbouring teeth to drift, affect your bite, and lead to gradual bone loss in the jaw. Replacing it early helps preserve both function and facial structure.
