A Secure and Natural-Feeling Tooth Replacement
One of the main benefits of dental implants is that they are designed to feel stable when you eat, speak and smile. Unlike removable options, implants are fixed in place and can help support normal chewing function. They may also help protect the jawbone and reduce movement in neighbouring teeth after tooth loss. Treatment usually begins with a consultation, where your dentist will assess your gums, bone levels and general suitability before creating a personalised plan. After the implant is placed and allowed to heal, a custom-made restoration is fitted, such as an implant crown, bridge or implant-retained denture. Your dentist will explain the full process, timescales and fees before treatment begins, including any additional costs for crowns, bridges or dentures.
