What it is
An implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Once it has integrated with the bone, a connector called an abutment and a custom crown are fitted on top.
What happens, step by step
01
Assessment with a 3D scan to check bone volume and plan the position.
02
Implant placed under local anaesthetic in a planned, guided procedure.
03
Healing period of around 8 to 12 weeks while the bone integrates.
04
Abutment and crown fitted, with a review of your bite.
Aftercare
Expect some swelling for a few days after placement. Cold packs, soft food and the cleaning routine we give you help healing.
Common questions

Suitability depends on your bone, gums and general health. The 3D scan at the assessment helps us answer this properly.
Does placement hurt?
How do I clean an implant?
