Dental Implants at Kingswood Dental in East Sussex...

A dental implant is a permanent replacement tooth. Recent innovations and developments with materials mean implants have surpassed bridges or dentures for replacing a missing tooth or teeth.

What are implants made of? Titanium is most popular but there are now special ceramics with exotic names such as zirconium.

How are implants fixed? By using a specially designed socket fitted in the jawbone.

Do implants require special care? No! You simply treat implants in the same way as your natural teeth with regular brushing and flossing.

How natural do they look? They match natural teeth so well that it's virtually impossible to tell if someone has an implant. At Kingswood Dentalwe cooperate with the best specialist oral surgeons for the insertion of the implant and construct the crowns and bridges (the prosthetic) ourselves. There is no standard price for an implant – each treatment is costed individually.
