Dental implants are the best way to replace teeth and produce a very life like end result. This patient had worn removable plastic dentures for over 30 years and wanted to have implants to replace the missing teeth. Dental implants were simply placed in the practice and after a 2 month healing period fixed teeth were attached. Placement of a dental implant takes about 30 mins and can be painlessly done under local anaesthetic (Injection).

| We currently accept patients from other dental practices for implant treatment and have been involved in placements over the past 5 years. In addition we are preparing a clinical guide book to help with ongoing developments in this area. |
