About this treatment
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jaw bone. Once it bonds with the bone, a crown is fixed on top. It looks, feels and works like a natural tooth.
Who is it for?
Implants suit most adults who have lost one or more teeth, provided the gums are healthy and there is enough bone. If bone is thin, it can often be built up first.
The process
After X-rays and planning, the implant is placed under local anaesthesia. The bone takes a few months to heal around it, then the final crown is fitted. Smokers and diabetics can usually have implants, but need extra care.
