Implants

If you have any missing teeth, even one, or have lost all your teeth then you should consider the exciting possibility of dental implants.

What is involved?

A single visit is usually all that is required for implant insertion. Once in place they are covered by the gum tissue and allowed between three and four months to become firmly attached jaw bone.

During this time a temporary crown can be worn comfortably. Once the implants have taken, the replacement teeth can be made and fitted.

Is the procedure painful?

The first and most frequently asked question. It is surprising how little pain is felt after the procedure. Often only minor discomfort similar to that of a simple dental extraction is experienced.

Are implants safe?

Osteo-Ti is a British manufactured implant system which is CE marked, and internationally recognised sign showing that the medical device provides patients with a high level of protection, high success level and does not compromise your health and safety.

How many implants will be required?

It is often a simple case of replacing each missing tooth with an individual implant. The number of implants necessary has to be calculated according to individual requirements.

What is a dental implant?

The Osteo-Ti dental implant resembles a small screw and is made from Titanium or its Alloy. Titanium is a material which the body accepts as its own, so there need be no fear of rejection due to the material. As the name suggests it's implanted into the jaw, and the replacement teeth are later fastened to it. Dental Implants feel and function just like natural teeth on biting.
