A dental implant is used when one or more teeth are missing. An implant is a procedure that involves the placement of a titanium cylinder inserted into your jaw. Once the implant heals into your bone, it acts as a new “root” for the crown to replace your missing tooth. Once installed, they allow the dentist to fit replacement teeth on them. Your new tooth, the crown, will look and feel like your real teeth giving you the freedom to function as normal again. For some people, conventional bridges and dentures can be uncomfortable. In addition, standard bridges involve procedures that impact the longevity of the adjacent teeth and therefore dental implants offer a healthier dental alternative to replacing missing teeth.
For single tooth implants, it is not necessary to prepare or grind adjacent teeth to keep the new tooth/teeth in place. The main requirement is to have healthy gums, adequate bone to support the implant, and excellent oral hygiene habits. However, you will be guided about this in detail at your initial assessment. If you choose single tooth implants, then you will enjoy the following benefits:

The cost of single tooth implants varies depending on individual needs and the number of implants. On average, the cost of single tooth implants ranges between £2000 and £3500.
