I lost a tooth a few months ago and was constantly aware of it when talking and smiling. I found myself covering my mouth with my hand to hide the gap and decided it was time to make a change. My single implant has given me my smile back – I just wish that I’d done it sooner. The team at Dental Implants 4 You was brilliant throughout the whole process and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

About single implants

What is a single dental implant?

Single dental implants replace single missing teeth. They consist of an implant which is made up of a titanium screw (or fixture), a crown (the part that looks like a tooth) and a connecting part known as an abutment which links the screw to the crown.

The screw is placed beneath the gum line and into the jawbone. When used with the abutment, it creates a secure place for replacement teeth or bridges to be positioned. Implants are made from materials which are compatible with our bodies, but at Dental Implants 4 You we like to take even more care with our dental implant components.

Our implants have a unique surface to help accelerate healing while maintaining gum and bone levels. We also custom make abutments as standard at no extra cost. By milling each abutment for each individual, we can help ensure better, longer-lasting results.
How long does the treatment take?

From consultation to brand new smile, dental implant treatment takes between 2 and 6 months depending on your needs and the severity of any gum disease. We’ll go through all of the details during your consultation, but generally speaking the first step would be to place the implant into the gum and jawbone (unless there are any teeth to be removed beforehand due to decay, an accident etc.) We do this under local anaesthetic but don’t worry if you feel nervous about this type of procedure – we’re experienced in helping people overcome anxiety and can talk through this during your consultation.

We then leave the implant to heal for at least 3 months before fitting the perfectly-matched crown onto it. We’re very thorough when it comes to look, feel and comfort so final fitting may take a few weeks so that you’re really happy with the results.

Sometimes, we can offer Teeth in a Day for single or multiple missing teeth. This incredible treatment has lots of benefits but it isn’t suitable for everyone. We can help work out whether it’s right for you during your consultation.
Does it hurt?

We use local anaesthetic when placing the implant into your gum and jaw to ensure minimum discomfort. If you feel particularly nervous, we can also provide sedation. We work with many clients who feel anxious about dental treatments so are very experienced in supporting people throughout.
Which dental implants do you use?

We take the quality of our dental implants very seriously. After all, they are placed into the body and eventually become a part of it so working with a leading implant company was a natural choice for us.

Our implants are manufactured in Sweden by Astra Tech Dental. The implants have a unique surface which promotes faster healing while maintaining gum and bone levels for long-lasting results.

Unlike some other implant systems, the Astra Tech solution allows us to create a custom-made abutment (the part that links the screw to the crown). Stock abutments are only available in 3 sizes. Having the opportunity to tailor the abutment means we can recreate your natural tooth anatomy helping you to clean more easily and control plaque in the future. As dental implants are affected by plaque and gum disease (just like real teeth), this can help your implants ‘take’ successfully and last longer.
How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants can last for over 20 years and one of their great benefits is that you care for them just as you would natural teeth.
How do I care for dental implants?

Brush twice a day and floss once a day – interdental brushes that slide between the teeth are ideal for cleaning tricky and hard-to-reach areas. Giving up smoking will help to protect your jawbone and it’s important to visit us regularly.
