Dental Implants

Improve your quality of life with dental implants…

The loss or absence of teeth; be it through dental disease, accident or congenital defect, not only affects your appearance and confidence, it also hinders your speech and the ability to eat and enjoy your food.

For almost 40 years, dental implants have offered a scientifically proven means of replacing one or more missing teeth.

Dental Implants

  • Replace one or more teeth
  • Hold dentures securely in the mouth
  • Are scientifically researched and proven
  • Successful in over 96% of cases
  • Improve your quality of life

What is a dental Implant?

A dental implant is a small screw made of medical-grade titanium which is inseted into the jawbone which then bonds to the implant surface over 6 to 12 weeks. After the healing period the tooth replacement in the form of a crown, a bridge or a denture is secured to the implant.

Why dental implants?

  • Implants looks, feel and function like a natural tooth
  • The procedure does not require adjacent teeth to be ‘cut back’
  • The implant replaced the tooth root which preserves bone
  • They prevent bone collapse and provide better long term aesthetics
