A dental implant is effectively a titanium screw which is placed in the jaw in place of the missing tooth root. The implant can then be used to support a single crown, bridge or denture. Dental implants are placed under local anaesthetic.

We are happy to place implants and return patients back to their own dental surgeon for completion of the restorative aspects. Alternatively we are happy to offer a full surgical and restorative service. If necessary this can be combined with fixed orthodontic treatment, to improve end results. This is also carried out within the practice.

We have been successfully placing Straumann and restoring Straumann dental implants since 2002. The Straumann system gives consistently good results.

We are constantly auditing our own work and to date we have a 96% success rate with the Straumann system.

Not every one is suitable for implants, however a clean mouth with healthy gums and free from decay is always a good starting point.

Please ask your dentist for a referral to us or contact us for further information.
