Single Implant
If you’re missing a tooth, or you know you’ll need to have one taken out, a single implant may be the perfect solution to your dental needs.
This treatment option performs like a new tooth inserted into a gap, functioning like just your natural teeth.
The titanium-based implant material is bio-compatible, enabling it to be submerged into the jaw. Bone will then grow to surround it, bonding to it through a process called ‘osseointegration’.
In this first step of treatment, the artificial titanium root is left for 3-4 months once it’s inserted into the jaw, allowing the bone to fuse with the new root. After the healing period has reached completion, a life-like tooth crown that’s been carefully sculpted is fitted to the implanted titanium root.
This achieves a seamless, permanent solution to a missing tooth. Offering a beautiful and subtle look, it’s also strong, providing longevity and peace of mind.
