Whether you are missing one tooth or several teeth, dental implants are the solution to get you back smiling and eating as normal again. Quite often we hear of patients not being able to enjoy a hearty steak or afraid to smile at social occasions. No one should have to live with missing teeth, it's why more and more people are opting for dental implants and saying good riddance to uncomfortable, ill-fitting dentures. 

Modern technology and advanced techniques mean that it's never been easier to get the smile you've always wanted and restore your confidence. We can even show you how your smile will look before treatment begins, thanks to our in-clinic Digital Smile Design Studio. Here, we take several high quality photographs which your dentist then uses to create what your smile will look like. You can then see firsthand the results and alter your new smile to how you would like it from the shape and whiteness of your teeth. It also means that treatment doesn't begin until you are 100% satisfied with how your smile will look.

Types of Dental Implant

If you're missing a single tooth, several teeth or an entire set we have a number of options available for you. You'd be surprised by the amount of people who don't realise the long-lasting damage they are doing by not replacing missing teeth. Without a tooth root, your jawbone can actually begin to shrink over time and lead to what is known as facial collapse, drastically ageing a person far beyond their years. With a dental implant, we can actually encourage the growth of jawbone as they act, look and feel just like a natural tooth. Many people assume that when it comes to replacing a denture or entire set of teeth, they require a single dental implant for each tooth. This isn't the case and you can opt for Click-tite dentures instead, which click into and remain firmly in place unlike a standard denture. If you're missing three teeth side by side for example, you can opt for a dental implant bridge, meaning you'll only require 2 implants as opposed to 3, reducing the overall cost of your treatment.
