We understand that losing teeth or living with uncomfortable/loose-fitting dentures can have a massive effect on your self-esteem and your life. Dental implants are a long-lasting solution to missing teeth – they look and feel just like your own original teeth and allow you to smile, eat and chew with confidence. An implant is an artificial root made from titanium that replaces the root of a missing tooth, It can be placed in either the upper or lower jaw and, in time, your jawbone will fuse around it to create a firm foundation to which a replacement false tooth is fixed.
