Replacing missing teeth with dental implants, from a single tooth to a full arch, including the bone grafting that sometimes precedes them.
Ways we replace missing teeth
Replacing one missing tooth without involving the teeth either side of it.
Replacing several missing teeth, using fewer implants than teeth where that works.
Replacing a complete upper or lower arch on a fixed set of implants.
Rebuilding bone so there is enough to hold an implant, where there is not already.
Implant treatment suits patients who are missing one or more teeth and want a replacement that stands on its own rather than resting on neighbouring teeth.
- Healthy enough gum tissue to support treatment
- Enough bone to hold an implant, or a plan to rebuild it first
- Willing to maintain the result with regular hygiene visits
Dr. Dempsey assesses all of this at your first visit, and will tell you plainly if an implant is not the right option for you.
“I came in nervous and left understanding exactly what was happening and why. Nothing was rushed.”
