These fittings are the standard approach to replacing a single missing tooth. They are increasingly popular and offer a natural look, feel and function the same as a natural tooth.

What is a single tooth dental implant?

These individual fittings feature a titanium root, planted directly into the underlying bone, as well as a crown or cap to replicate the appearance and biting function of the original tooth. Since implants fuse with the bone, they behave in a similar way to your teeth and feel more natural than gum-adhered options.

A single tooth implant will require at least two visits: one to fit the screw and insert the implant and a second to cap the fitting with a ceramic crown.

Once fitted, a single tooth dental implant is extremely secure and should last for many years with proper maintenance and oral hygiene.

Why would I need a single tooth dental implant?

When you lose a tooth due to trauma, disease or extraction, you should replace it. Doing so will help to preserve the integrity of the exposed gum, maintain the shape of the mouth and improve the look and feel of your teeth, whilst maintaining functionality.

These implants are suitable for patients who have only one or a few teeth missing in an otherwise healthy mouth.

We use custom-made ceramic dental crowns which can perfectly replicate the shape and bite of your original teeth.
