Dental implants are replacement tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.
What are the advantages of dental implants?
Dental implants are the ultimate tooth replacement, they provide a completely new tooth root made of titanium which integrates with the jaw bone and are biocompatible. They:
- Improve appearance
- Improve your speech
- Improve comfort as they act like your actual teeth
- Comfort during eating, improvement of function
- Durability with good continuing care
The first step in the dental implant process is the development of an individualised treatment plan.

A team of professionals who are specially trained and experienced in oral surgery and restorative dentistry provides coordinated care based on the implant option that is best for you.
Next, the tooth root implant, which is a small post made of titanium, is placed into the bone socket of the missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it grows around the implanted metal post, anchoring it securely in the jaw. The healing process can take from six to 12 weeks.
Once the implant has bonded to the jawbone, a small connector post is attached to the post to securely hold the new tooth. A replacement tooth, called a crown, is then attached to the post.
