Dental implant procedure
Having an implant placed normally involves single or multiple surgical procedures. You’ll usually have your implant placed under local anaesthetic in your local practice. Once your implant has healed, you can have your new permanent tooth or teeth fitted on top.
Patient stories
Implants can give you back the confidence that missing or unhealthy teeth sometimes take away. Have a look at before and after photos, stories and testimonials from some of our patients to see how they’ve restored their smiles with implants.
