Dental Implants

A long-term option for replacing missing teeth

Missing teeth can affect how you chew, speak and feel about your smile. Dental implants are one option for replacing missing teeth. An implant is placed in the jawbone to act as a support for a replacement tooth, bridge or denture, depending on your needs and treatment plan.

Suitability depends on factors such as your oral health, the condition of your gums and the amount of bone available. Your dentist will discuss your goals, examine your mouth and explain the stages, benefits, limitations and maintenance involved. This helps you understand whether implants may be a suitable option and what alternatives are available.

CRANKHALL DENTAL

A Solution for Missing Teeth

Dental implants can support replacement teeth where one or more teeth are missing. A consultation gives you the chance to discuss how missing teeth affect you, explore the available replacement options and understand whether implant treatment may be suitable.

A Fixed Option

Dental implants can support a replacement tooth, bridge or denture, helping restore function where teeth are

missing. The type of restoration depends on how many teeth need replacing and your individual treatment plan.

An assessment will help establish which options may be appropriate, allowing you to compare implants with alternatives such as conventional bridges or removable dentures.

Bespoke Planning

Careful assessment and planning help establish whether implants are suitable, taking account of your oral health, gum condition, jawbone and treatment goals. Additional treatment may sometimes be needed before an implant can be placed.

Your clinician will explain the steps involved, any relevant limitations and the options available, so you have a clearer understanding of the likely process before committing to treatment.

Long-Term Care and Maintenance

Implants need daily cleaning and regular professional reviews, just like natural teeth and other dental restorations. Your team will explain how to clean around the implant and replacement tooth, what signs to look out for and why ongoing maintenance matters.
THE TREATMENT

What happens during the treatment?

Treatment commonly includes consultation and planning, implant placement, healing while the implant integrates with bone, and fitting the final restoration. Timing varies; your dentist will explain risks, alternatives and costs.

After placement, the implant needs time to heal and bond with the surrounding bone before the final restoration can be fitted. During this period, your dentist will monitor your progress and advise you on caring for the area. Once healing is complete, the replacement tooth is designed to complement your natural teeth, helping restore the appearance and function of your smile.
