Dental Implants · Sheffield
Missing a tooth? A dental implant replaces it from the root up — a stable, long-term solution that looks, feels and functions like your own tooth.
Dental Implants
Losing a tooth affects more than your smile. Over time, the jawbone beneath a gap can shrink, and neighbouring teeth can drift out of place. A dental implant addresses this directly — a small biocompatible titanium post is placed in the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone to form a stable, long-term foundation.
A custom-made crown is then fitted on top, shaped and shaded to match your own teeth. The result functions and feels like a natural tooth, and helps preserve the bone and structure around it.

It's carried out under local anaesthetic, so you won't feel pain during the procedure. Some mild swelling or discomfort afterwards is normal and manageable.
With good oral hygiene, regular check-ups and a healthy lifestyle, implants can last many years — often decades.
Most adults who have finished bone growth and are in reasonably good health are suitable, whatever their age. We'll assess your bone and overall health to confirm.
Once healed, yes — implants let you eat, speak and smile without the worries a gap or loose denture can bring.
