If you're missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer the closest thing to your natural smile back, fixed firmly in place, built to last, and cared for by a team that's been looking after Palmers Green's smiles for over 40 years. At Phoenix Dental, our experienced team guides you through every stage of implant treatment, from your first consultation to your final check-up, so you always know what to expect.
A dental implant is a small titanium post that's placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once it has fused with the bone, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is fitted on top, giving you a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like your own.
Unlike dentures or bridges, implants don't rely on neighbouring teeth for support and don't move or slip when you eat or speak. Because the titanium post stimulates the jawbone the same way a natural root would, implants also help prevent the bone loss that often follows tooth loss, something dentures and bridges can't do.
Every smile is different, so your dentist will recommend the option that best suits your needs during your consultation.
Single tooth implants Replace one missing tooth with a single implant and crown, without touching the healthy teeth either side of the gap.
Multiple tooth implants Missing several teeth? An implant-supported bridge replaces them securely, without needing to prepare or crown surrounding natural teeth.
Implant-supported dentures For patients missing most or all of their teeth, a full arch of teeth can be securely fixed onto as few as four implants, ending the slipping and discomfort that can come with traditional dentures.
The whole process was quick, smooth and professional, and the final result is fantastic. The staff were extremely kind, welcoming and reassuring throughout, which made the whole experience so much easier. I’m genuinely very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend this dentist to anyone considering treatment.
Most adults in good general and oral health are suitable candidates. What matters most is having enough healthy jawbone to support an implant and gums free of active disease, both of which your dentist will assess at your consultation.
If bone levels are a little low, a bone graft can often build up the area beforehand. Age alone is rarely a barrier, though smoking and unmanaged gum disease can affect how well an implant heals, so these are worth discussing with your dentist too.
