Dental Implants
Eat and smile with confidence. Missing teeth affect the way we eat and gaps can look unsightly. Dental Implants provide a secure and safe way to replace missing teeth. Would you like to enjoy your food again and have a confident smile?
If you have missing teeth that look unsightly or cause you difficulty when chewing then dental implants may be suitable for you. Dental implants can be used to secure a crown, bridge or your denture to give you confidence in your smile again.
Here at Hexham dental clinic we have a combined over 20 years experience of providing dental implants for the local population. We combine cutting edge technology with highly trained implant clinicians to provide anything from single tooth implants to all on 4 teeth. We guide you through the process with a meeting with our treatment coordinator to discuss your options, photos and sometimes employing 3D scanning to tailor your treatment. We hope to provide you with as much information about your treatment before you proceed.

What can dental implants do for me?
Many patients suffer from missing teeth. The historic alternatives to missing teeth have been dentures or bridges but these are not without their problems. Many patients complain that their dentures feel loose.
Bridges, by their nature, require the adjacent teeth to be damaged to support the missing tooth. This can present problems later such as decay and abscesses.
Dental Implants can help restore confidence in your smile in a secure, predictable way without damaging any adjacent teeth. They can be used to replace a single tooth or restore a whole mouth.
Patient Feedback
First developed in the 1950’s implant technology is now such that there is an excellent success rate for implant treatments. Because implants are secured in bone they look and feel like having your own teeth back. Made from titanium, implants fixtures create an integrated union with your jaw-bone to provide the perfect replacement for your missing tooth or teeth.
