What it is about
An implant is an artificial tooth root anchored in the jawbone. A crown, bridge or denture can then be attached to it.
How treatment works
It starts with a consultation and examination. If an implant suits your situation, we plan the treatment and prepare a cost estimate.
The implant is placed under local anaesthetic and then heals in. Only then is the visible replacement tooth fitted.
What to consider
Like any procedure, this one carries risks, which we explain to you beforehand. Smoking and untreated gum disease can affect healing. An implant also needs good care and regular check-ups.
