DENTAL IMPLANTS
Implants are a safe and well-established treatment, they hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Much like natural teeth, they will last for as long as you care for them. A dental implant is used to support one or more false teeth. It is made of a titanium screw that can replace the root of a tooth when it fails. They are a popular choice as they are often more tooth-saving than traditional treatments.

We find many patients opt for Dental Implants as they have many aesthetic advantages. They look and feel just like natural teeth and we could highly recommend them as one of the best solutions for a missing tooth.
Another advantage is that they also do not have to be cut with a drill to provide support which means that the quality of the adjacent teeth is not sacrificed.
