Dental implants in Ilford

What is a dental implant?

An implant is placed in the jaw to support a replacement tooth or teeth. It is one approach to discuss when considering how to replace missing teeth.

Assessment before treatment

Ask about suitability, the treatment stages, recovery, risks and long-term care. A dentist needs to assess your oral health before recommending a plan.

Compare replacement options

Discuss implants alongside other appropriate options, including bridges. Costs and timing depend on what is needed; no same-day result is promised here.

Your questions answered
