Dental implants are designed to replace and replicate a natural tooth or teeth as closely as possible. They are titanium biocompatible screw, which acts as a substitute tooth root. In the case of single implants, a custom-made crown is placed over the top providing aesthetic appeal and chewing function for the root (the implant).
When looked after carefully, with proper at-home daily oral care routines, regular dental examinations, and hygiene appointments, dental implants can last a lifetime.

Single implants redistribute the essential biting forces that you use multiple times a day for chewing and biting. They prevent healthy teeth from becoming affected by tooth wear, and perhaps most importantly of all, they are almost equal to a real tooth.
Using planning and diagnostic equipment and software such as our CBCT, the most viable area of the jawbone can be identified to receive the implant. The correct placement of the implant is vital to its long-term well-being, and it’s this equipment that enables us to deliver such high success rates for our patients.
