Benefits of Dental Implants
Natural Appearance
Implants look and feel like natural teeth, blending seamlessly with the rest of your smile.
Durability & Strength
Dental implants are designed to last for many years, with proper care potentially lasting a lifetime.
Improved Function
Implants allow you to eat, speak, and smile confidently without worrying about loose or uncomfortable dentures.
Preservation of Jawbone
Implants help prevent bone loss by stimulating the jawbone, which typically shrinks when a tooth is missing.
No Impact on Other Teeth
Unlike bridges, implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support, preserving the health of your surrounding natural teeth

At Hoveton Dental Clinic, we offer high-quality dental implants to replace missing teeth, providing a durable and natural-looking solution. Our experienced dentists use the latest techniques to ensure the best results, helping you regain confidence in your smile and improve your oral health.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. An implant consists of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant has healed and integrated with the bone, a crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant, creating a stable and natural-looking tooth replacement.
Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants are permanent, offering a more secure and comfortable option for replacing missing teeth.

The Dental Implant Process
At Hoveton Dental Clinic, we guide you through every step of the dental implant process to ensure you are comfortable and informed. Here’s what to expect:
Consultation and Assessment: We begin with a thorough examination, which may include X-rays or 3D scans to assess your suitability for dental implants. Your dentist will explain the treatment plan, timeframes, and costs involved.
Implant Placement: The dental implant (a small titanium post) is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia. Sedation options may also be available for added comfort. The implant will need time to heal and integrate with the bone, typically taking a few months.
Abutment and Crown Placement: Once the implant has fully healed, an abutment (connector piece) is attached to the implant, and a custom-made crown is fitted on top, restoring the tooth’s appearance and function.
Aftercare and Maintenance: After your implant is in place, we provide guidance on maintaining your new tooth. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to ensure the longevity of the implant.

What Is The Price For Dental Implants?
Are dental implants painful?
The implant procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort or swelling may occur afterwards, but this can be managed with pain relief and typically subsides within a few days.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups are essential to maintain the health of your implant.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of dental implants varies depending on the number of implants needed and the complexity of the procedure. At Hoveton Dental Clinic, we will provide a detailed estimate after your initial consultation and offer payment plans to make the treatment more affordable.
Am I a suitable candidate for dental implants?
Most people with missing teeth are suitable candidates for dental implants. However, a healthy jawbone is required to support the implant. During your consultation, we’ll assess your bone density and overall oral health to determine if implants are the right option for you.
How long does the implant process take?
The dental implant process usually takes several months from start to finish, including healing time between placing the implant and attaching the crown. The exact timeframe depends on your individual case and how quickly the implant integrates with the jawbone.
Can I get a dental implant for multiple missing teeth?
Yes, dental implants can replace multiple teeth. In some cases, a single implant can support a bridge or denture to replace several teeth, providing a stable and permanent solution.
Do dental implants require special care?
No special care is required for dental implants beyond regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. Your dentist will provide specific advice on keeping the implant clean and healthy.
What happens if I don’t get an implant after losing a tooth?
Without a replacement, the bone in the jaw where the tooth was lost can begin to shrink, leading to further dental issues, such as shifting teeth or changes in facial structure. Dental implants help preserve the bone and prevent these problems.
Can dental implants fail?
Implant failure is rare, but it can occur if the implant doesn’t integrate with the jawbone or if there is an infection. Maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular check-ups reduces the risk of complications.
