Dental implants are advanced dental restorations that replace missing teeth by mimicking the natural structure of a tooth. Each implant consists of three main components:
Dental implants are designed to function just like natural teeth, offering a permanent and stable solution that improves both oral health and appearance. Whether you need to replace one tooth or all of your teeth, dental implants provide a versatile solution.
A permanent replacement for missing teeth
Extremely strong and stable – no chance of becoming loose or falling out
Made to last – over 90% of implants last 15 years or more
Just like your natural teeth
Preserves the natural jaw bone and prevents the bone degradation which occurs when a tooth is lost
Eat, speak and smile with confidence again
Available at Purley Dental Care with finance plans to spread the cost of payment
If you’re missing just one tooth, a single tooth dental implant is an ideal solution. This treatment involves placing a single titanium implant post in the jawbone, which acts as a root for a custom-made crown. The result is a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like your natural tooth.
Benefits of Single Tooth Dental Implants:
Single tooth dental implants are a great option for replacing a lost tooth without endangering the health of the teeth that surround it.
If you’re missing several teeth, multiple teeth dental implants offer a secure and natural-looking solution. This treatment involves placing two or more implant posts in the jawbone, which support either a bridge or multiple individual crowns, depending on the number of teeth being replaced.
Benefits of Multiple Teeth Dental Implants:
Multiple teeth dental implants provide a stable and durable solution for those who need to replace several missing teeth, offering both functional and aesthetic benefits.
For those who have lost all or most of their teeth in one or both arches, full mouth dental implants provide a comprehensive solution. This treatment involves placing multiple implants in the jawbone to support a full arch prosthesis, restoring an entire set of teeth.
Benefits of Full Mouth Dental Implants:
Full mouth dental implants offer a life-changing solution for those who need to restore an entire arch of teeth, providing stability, comfort, and a natural-looking smile.
Consultation - your journey begins with a consultation with our implant dentist who will assess your oral health, review your medical history, and discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure.
Treatment Plan - based on the evaluation, a customised treatment plan is created. This plan outlines the number of implants needed and any necessary preparatory procedures, such as bone grafts or extractions.
Implant Placement - the next step involves the surgical placement of the dental implant. A small titanium post is inserted into the jawbone, where it acts as a substitute for the natural tooth root. This process is typically performed under local anesthesia, and patients usually experience minimal discomfort.
Osseointegration - over the next few months, the implant fuses with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. This integration ensures the implant's stability and strength and is the main reason why implants are as strong if not more so, than your natural teeth.
Abutment Placement - once osseointegration is complete, an abutment is attached to the implant. This connector piece serves as the foundation for the final restoration, the dental crown.
Restoration - finally, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the abutment, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth, both in appearance and function.

The timeline varies depending on the type of implant treatment you need, but it generally takes several months from consultation to the final placement of the restoration, including time for healing and osseointegration.
The implant placement procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort after the procedure is normal, but it can usually be managed with pain relievers.
Caring for dental implants is just like taking care of your natural teeth. Frequent dental examinations, brushing, and flossing are necessary to maintain your implants and overall oral health.
If you lack sufficient jawbone density, bone grafting procedures may be recommended to build up the bone, making it possible to place implants. This will be discussed during your consultation.
Yes, the crowns, bridges, or prostheses placed on your implants are custom-made to match the appearance of your natural teeth, ensuring that your smile looks completely natural.
