What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into your jawbone. It acts as a new root. Over a few months, your bone grows around it and holds it in place, just like a natural root. Once healed, a custom crown is placed on top. The result is a tooth that looks, feels, and works like the one you lost. Titanium is biocompatible, your body accepts it safely. It has been used in medicine for over fifty years.

Single Tooth Implant

For one or a few missing teeth. Each implant stands on its own, no need to file down or bridge across your healthy teeth. Your neighbouring teeth stay completely untouched. This is the best option for a single gap, or for two to three teeth that are not next to each other. The implant supports itself, so no healthy tooth structure is lost in the process.

All-on-4 Implants

Four implants placed at precise angles to support a full set of fixed teeth on one jaw. This approach works even for patients with some bone loss, and often allows a temporary set of teeth to be placed on the same day as your surgery.

Full Mouth Dental Implants

Six to eight implants per jaw for the strongest, most stable full-arch result. This is ideal for patients who want maximum support and have enough bone for the additional implants. The result is a complete set of fixed teeth, not a removable denture, but a permanent restoration.

How Your Implant Treatment Works

Our dental implant protocol follows a rigorous, multi-stage medical workflow designed to ensure precise placement, immediate aesthetics, and lifetime stability.

How Your Implant Treatment Works

The journey to a precision-engineered smile typically requires 2 sessions over 5 to 7 days.

Examination

Assessment & 3D Planning

We begin with a detailed check-up, including a 3D scan of your jaw. This shows your bone density, nerve positions, and the best angle for your implant. Nothing is left to guesswork. The surgery is planned digitally before it happens.

Imaging

3D Digital Mapping

Using advanced scans, we build a high-resolution 3D model of your jaw. This digital map shows us the most accurate positions for each implant. Keeping a safe distance from nerves and maximising contact with healthy bone for a strong, lasting hold.

Implant Placement

The titanium post is placed into your jawbone under local anaesthesia. The procedure typically takes thirty to sixty minutes per implant. Most patients say it was far less uncomfortable than they expected.

Surgical Implant Placement

Temporary implants

Same-Day Temporary Teeth

For many full-arch cases, we fit a temporary set of teeth on the same day as your surgery. This means you leave the clinic with a complete smile in place while your implants heal beneath the surface. You are never without teeth. Not for a single day during the process.

Customization

Digital Crown Design

While your jaw heals and the implant fuses with bone, our ceramists craft your permanent crown. It is designed digitally to match the shape, shade, and size of your other teeth. Precision-made from premium E.max or zirconia and finished by hand.

Final Adjustments

Healing Check

After placement, we check your bite one final time and ensure everything has settled. You receive a full aftercare guide for the months ahead, with clear steps for care at home and a direct line to our team for any questions.

Placement

Lifetime Care

Your implant is covered by our Lifetime Smile Guardian programme. WhatsApp access to your care team, partner dentists in the UK and Europe, and yearly scans to check bone health around the implant. Even when everything feels fine, we stay in touch. That is our commitment.
