What are dental implants?
Losing your teeth or even only one tooth can often be a severe psychological blow. For those people who have teeth missing, wear dentures or are about to lose their teeth, dental implants offer a superb permanent alternative and a highly predictable way to restore missing or failing teeth.
A dental implant is essentially an artificial ‘root’ typically made of titanium, which is placed in the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or teeth in the form of a crown (for a single tooth) or bridgework (for multiple teeth and implants).
A single missing or failing tooth, or any number of teeth up to a complete dentition can be restored with dental implants, providing a highly predictable restoration that will actually preserve and strengthen the bone as well as look and feel completely natural.
For failing teeth that need to be removed, we place the implant or implants directly into the extraction sockets whenever possible as the tooth or teeth are removed (i.e. immediate implants). In addition, an immediate ‘provisional’or interim restoration of the tooth or teeth is provided so you can still function and smile whilst the implant or implants stabilise in the jawbone.

When do we use dental implants?
Dental implants offer a permanent alternative for people who have lost teeth, who have diseased or failing teeth, or who wear dentures. You may have been told that dentures are your only option, when in fact dental implants can offer a fantastic solution that will give you back your smile and your confidence. Single teeth, multiple teeth, bridges and full sets of teeth can be restored with dental implants. In today’s modern dentistry approach, dental implants are often seen as the first choice option for replacement of missing or failing teeth.

What our patients have to say…..
“I seem to want to smile all the time”
“I just want to say such a very big thank you for giving me such a wonderful new confidence that I have now with my smile. I feel really good about it. I seem to want to smile all the time. The change in my self-confidence is difficult to express in words.”
Beverley (59).
“The change in my self-confidence is difficult to express in words”
“Only people very close to me are aware of how much having my ‘own teeth’ again has changed my life. The change in my self-confidence is difficult to express in words. The cost of dental implant treatment can be a very important financial decision – especially in cases like my own. What justifies it for me is that my new and permanent teeth are my most important material possession!””
Roger (51).
“I’d been told I couldn’t have fixed teeth”
“I first began using full dentures in my early twenties. During the next 25 years, there was a gradual but massive amount of bone resorption of my jaws and subsequent change to the lower half of my face. I’d been told by another dentist that I couldn’t have fixed teeth, but Dr Mankoo was able to give me a fantastic result with fixed teeth. There was some discomfort – but the fantasies are worse than the reality. This has to be offset by the discomfort I was already experiencing with dentures. The change is what makes it worth it!”

Life-changing solutions for our patients:

The Challenge:
A failed crown, bone loss and gum recession
The solution:
A dental implant and crown, gum and bone rebuilding, tooth whitening
A gentleman in his 40s came to us with a front tooth that had been crowned and root filled and was now failing. Repeated infection and previously unsuccessful surgical treatment had left him with a very visible problem.
Despite the challenge we faced of gum recession and damage to the underlying bone, with our skills and experience in soft tissue and bone rebuilding as well as implant dentistry we were able to create a near-perfect end result. |

The Challenge:
Missing teeth, uncomfortable dentures, diseased and failing teeth
The solution:
Full mouth restoration with dental implants, crowns & bridgework.
This gentleman in his 70s had gradually lost his teeth through poor dental care, smoking, gum disease and failed dental work. His few remaining upper teeth were now failing, and after trying to wear – and hating – partial dentures for many years he wanted fixed teeth again.
Although we were starting from a pretty difficult situation, a fantastic end result was achieved. All upper teeth and the lower back teeth were restored with dental implant crowns and bridges, along with crowns on his lower front teeth which were able to be saved. |

The Challenge:
Diseased and failing teeth
The solution:
Full mouth restoration with dental implants, crowns and bridgework
Years of neglect and smoking had ruined this gentleman’s teeth and smile. We were able to achieve a dramatic result in this very challenging case by carefully treating the disease to save some of the upper teeth and removing the failed teeth, which we replaced with dental implants, crowns and bridges. The impact on this patient’s quality of life, smile and confidence was remarkable.
