What it is.
A titanium post that replaces a missing tooth root, topped with a crown. Scan, implant and crown are included in the price.
Who it’s for.
- Patients missing one or more teeth
- People who want an alternative to a bridge or dentures
- Adults with healthy gums and enough bone, which we check with a scan
What to expect.
- A scan and a clear plan before anything begins
- The implant placed under local anaesthetic
- Several months of healing, with check-ins
- The final crown fitted and your bite adjusted
How long it takes.
Three to four visits over several months; the first is about 90 minutes.
Aftercare.
- Soft food for the first few days
- Rinse gently and keep the area very clean
- Avoid smoking, which slows healing
- Come to every check-in, even if it feels fine
