Restore your smile with dental implants

Dental implants in London are a great option when you have gaps from missing teeth. Fixed in place, you’ll be able to do everything you could with your natural teeth – talk, eat and smile – so you’ll no longer worry about hiding your mouth, changing your diet or limiting your lifestyle.

The benefits of dental implants

There are huge benefits to having dental implants in Clapham, London. Durable and long-lasting, they look, feel and act like natural teeth – and they won’t change the look of your face. They can help improve the look of your smile and will likely give you a confidence boost, too.

A guide to dental implants

All tooth implants in Clapham are made of 3 parts – a titanium screw, a connecting part and a crown. However, treatment options depend on how many teeth you’re replacing and how quickly you want to see results.

Fast tooth implants – quick and effective, these temporary teeth are matched to your natural ones for a seamless smile, with all parts fitted in one session
Single dental implants – as above, but these require a recovery period before fitting the crown (outer part) and are more permanent
Implant dentures – a great alternative to traditional dentures, these are permanently fixed, so won’t move around in your mouth. They’re recommended for when you have multiple teeth missing in one area of your mouth

A guide to your treatment

Here at Crescent Lodge Dental Practice in Clapham Common, London, we offer a safe procedure with a high success rate. Here’s what you can expect when you come to us.

Step 1 – free consultation

After a quick suitability assessment, which involves an examination of your mouth and questions about your medical history, you’ll find out how the dental implants work and their benefits, and have the chance to ask any questions.

Step 2 – dental implant treatment planning

Using X-rays, impressions of your teeth and the results of your suitability assessment, we’ll recommend an implant treatment plan to suit you, going over the right position for each tooth and the amount of bone used in the implants.

Step 3 – Placing your implants

This involves a small surgical procedure where an incision is made in your gums, and then a hole is made in the bone with a specialised drill. The screw of the tooth is then placed before the hole is stitched. For fast tooth implants, all tooth parts are fitted during this session. For regular dental implants in London, a recovery period is needed.

Step 4 – Healing and aftercare

Tooth implants in Clapham, London, take anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months to fuse to your bone. As with natural teeth, you’ll need to brush and floss your implants and have regular check-ups.
