A full range of implant treatments
We offer all your implant treatment, plus any supporting procedures and digital imaging you might need, in-house. This means you can have all your treatment at the practice; without needing to be referred elsewhere.
Whether you need one dental implant, or a full new smile, we can help. Our team offers the full suite of implant dentistry, including single and multiple implants to replace one or a few teeth, and full-arch restorations, implant-supported dentures and bridges for more extensive rehabilitations.
Meet our implant team
Our implant dentist, Nisar, has been offering implant treatments at our practice since 2015. Nisar has completed further postgraduate training in the field of implants. He holds a postgraduate diploma in Implantology from the UCL Eastman Dental College and two diplomas of Memberships from the Royal College of Surgeons.
A guiding hand to help you
We have a CBCT scanner on-site which allows us to assess if you’re a suitable candidate for implants and to prepare the best treatment plan to give you a new smile.
Our dedicated treatment coordinator will carefully take you through your treatment plan to make sure you’re fully informed about your treatment. You can call us any time if you feel unsure about anything or want some reassurance
If you’re very nervous, we may be able to give you dental sedation to put you at ease during your treatment.
Implant aftercare
Our hygienists will be on-hand throughout your treatment to help you with cleaning and maintenance. We’ll give you comprehensive aftercare advice on how to look after your implants once they’ve been placed.
Implant procedure
Learn about the step-by-step treatment process for having dental implants, from your initial consultation right through to aftercare.
First, you’ll have a free* phone consultation with one of our dedicated treatment coordinators. We’ll talk you through your options, give you an indication of price and can book you in for an initial assessment with your implant dentist if you choose to go ahead.
Clinical assessment
Next, you’ll have a clinical assessment to make sure you’re eligible for treatment. Your dentist will take X-rays and decide exactly where your implants need to be placed. They’ll also talk you through the cost of treatment and let you know if you need a supporting treatment, such as a bone graft.
Placing your implants
This is where your dental implants are fixed into your jawbone. It’s a surgical procedure normally performed under local anaesthetic, so it’s relatively pain-free. If you feel nervous, your dentist may be able to offer sedation to put you at ease. Your bone and gums will need time to heal before attaching your replacement teeth, so we’ll fit you with some temporary teeth until you’re ready.
Fitting your replacement teeth
It’s normal to wait four to eight months for the implant to fully integrate with your jawbone, before your permanent, replacement teeth are fitted. They will be custom-made to fit the size, shape and colour of your existing teeth.
Aftercare
Keeping your implants clean and healthy is no more difficult than it is with your natural teeth. But if you find any areas tricky to reach, or if you come across any problems, we’re here to help. We’ll provide you with all the aftercare advice you need to have a successful implant.
