  • Single tooth implants: If you have a single missing tooth, we can replace it with an implant that looks, feels, and functions just like your natural tooth.
  • Multiple teeth implants: For patients with multiple missing teeth, we provide customised implant-supported bridges or partial dentures, as a reliable, comfortable replacement.
  • Full mouth restoration: If you need a full set of teeth, our full-arch dental implants give you a complete, natural-looking smile, while restoring your ability to eat and speak comfortably.
  • All-on-4® dental implants: Using this innovative technique we can secure an entire arch of teeth with just four strategically placed implants, reducing the need for extensive surgery.
  • Mini implants: Ideal for patients with limited bone structure, mini implants offer a less invasive option to secure dentures.

Consultation

Are dental implants suitable for everyone?

Dental implants are a viable option for most people, but eligibility depends on factors such as overall health, bone density, and gum health. During your consultation, our dental specialists will evaluate your specific circumstances and determine whether dental implants are the right choice for you.

How long does the dental implant process typically take?

The duration of the dental implant process can vary depending on your individual case. It typically involves several phases, including implant placement, healing, and then prosthetic teeth placement. The entire process may take several months — an investment in time that results in a long-lasting and natural-looking smile.

Is the dental implant procedure painful?

Dental implant procedures are performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring you don’t experience pain during the surgery. You may feel some discomfort in the days following the procedure, both during osseointegration and following implant placement, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to help you through the recovery period.

How do I care for my dental implants once they are in place?

Caring for dental implants is relatively simple: maintain good oral hygiene practices, including brushing and daily interdental cleaning. We advise regular dental check-ups and hygienist maintenance visits to monitor the health of your implants. Your dentist will provide you with specific care instructions tailored to your needs.

Are dental implants covered by insurance?

Dental implant coverage can vary depending on your insurance provider and policy. While some dental insurance plans may cover a portion of the cost, it’s essential to check with your insurance company to understand the extent of your coverage. Our friendly reception team can also assist you in navigating insurance-related questions and maximising your benefits.
