Best Dental Implant Treatment in London

Our London dental clinic team implants teeth within the bone, making them structurally identical to their natural counterparts. This can protect your jaw bones, maintain tooth alignment and avoid facial drooping or asymmetry.

We use Straumann SLActive implants which are not only some of the highest quality implants on the market but also one of the dental implant systems offering one of the shortest treatment times.

Advantages include:

  • Quality
  • Maximum flexibility
  • Reduction in surgical time
  • Reduction in the risk of infection

Single tooth gap

  • Tooth extracted due to trauma, infection, failed root filling, and/or root fracture
  • Crown keeps falling out and/or not enough tooth left to attach the crown
  • Repeated infections
  • Permanent tooth missing from birth

Solution: Single Dental Implant with a supported single crown

  • The dental implant looks and functions just like a natural tooth
  • No need to damage adjacent healthy teeth
  • Continued use (loading) prevent resorption shrinkage of the underlying jawbone
  • Dental Implant-supported tooth prevents lateral movement (drifting) of adjacent teeth and over-eruption of the opposite tooth
  • Very high and predictable long-term success after surgery (98 percent) with conventional oral hygiene dental care

Alternatives to Dental Implants in Harley Street

Leave a gap

  • Unsightly
  • May impair eating, smile, speech, confidence
  • Bone and gum in the gap will shrink
  • Positions of adjacent opposing teeth will be distorted over time

Conventional bridge

  • Healthy adjacent teeth need to be damaged to attach/support the bridge, thus compromising their long term health
  • Jawbone supporting the gum beneath will shrink due to lack of use
  • Extra stress on supporting teeth during chewing

Multiple Tooth Dental Implants in Harley Street

Multiple tooth dental implants are more complicated, but elleven Dental Clinic is more than up to the challenge of this treatment! Usually, the fitting of multiple implants will be a two-stage process – initially, the dental implant is installed by the dentist and covered by gum, and then an abutment is attached by the dentist at a later date.

Usually, a temporary tooth replacement is put in place, followed by a 3-6 month healing period, before the final abutment installation. However, the procedure rarely causes patients discomfort.

Dental implants are the best treatment for those patients with multiple missing teeth, particularly in the back of the mouth, where a dental implant will provide stability and the ability to eat whatever you want.

Problem: Multiple missing teeth

  • Poorly fitting partial dentures or a failing tooth-supported bridge
  • Patient unable to chew properly and eat what they want
  • Food gets stuck under your dentures leading to embarrassment or discomfort whilst eating
  • Loose teeth or not enough of them to support bridges

Solution: Permanently fixed bridge supported by dental implants

  • Eat anything you choose
  • Dental implant looks and works just like natural teeth
  • Fixed in place, no need to remove it to clean
  • No need to damage adjacent healthy teeth with this procedure
  • Should last a lifetime with good oral hygiene and professional maintenance
  • Prevent shrinkage of underlying bone

Alternatives to dental implants in Harley Street

Replacement tooth-supported bridge

  • This dental procedure is only possible if supporting teeth on either side can still be used
  • Maintains chewing stress on the supporting teeth reducing their useful life
  • Should be viewed as a temporary treatment, if supporting teeth are failing

Larger tooth-supported bridge

  • Larger bridges put even more stress on the supporting teeth at either end
  • If the gap is at the back of the mouth, a bridge may not be an option
  • Needs replacing from time to time
  • Bone beneath the bridge shrinks, due to lack of use, leaving a gap

Partial denture

  • Dentures can be loose and uncomfortable, with food trapping beneath whilst eating
  • Causes the bone and gum beneath the denture to shrink
  • The clips which secure the denture can damage other teeth

Leave a gap

  • Unsightly compared to a dental implant
  • May impair eating, smile, speech, confidence
  • Bone and gum in the gap will shrink
  • Position of adjacent and opposing teeth can move over time causing other problems

Frequently Asked Questions

Here at elleven Dental, we specialise in dental implants in London and can assure you that we use local anaesthetic to numb the nerves surrounding the implant site, ensuring you don’t feel any pain.

Patients may feel some pressure when undergoing dental implant treatment but it shouldn’t cause you any discomfort.

After the procedure, it’s not uncommon for your gums to be swollen or bruised. Your cheeks, chin and underneath your eyes may also feel tender – but this should wear off within two weeks.

If the pain persists for longer, don’t hesitate to contact our dental team. We’ll take a look to determine the cause of the problem and advise on recovery.

Dental implants can last anywhere between 10 and 30 years, provided you care for them properly.

However, several other factors can affect the longevity of your implants, including:

Oral health – just like your natural teeth, you need to brush your implants twice a day and floss in between them to reduce the build-up of plaque.

Lifestyle choices – heavy drinking and smoking can have a detrimental impact on the lifespan of your dental implants, which is why we advise you to stop (or at least reduce) your intake.

Medical conditions – if you have diabetes or a compromised immune system, you’re more likely to suffer from infections – causing your body to take longer to heal and recover.

Injury or damage – the ceramic crowns placed on top of dental implants are susceptible to cracking and damage. Therefore, you mustn’t chew hard or sticky substances or use your teeth as tools to open bottles or packages. It’s also advisable to wear a gum shield in contact sports to prevent further damage to your implants.

If you’re toying with the idea of getting dental implants in London and want to make sure they last as long as possible, talk to the team at elleven Dental and we’ll advise you on how to prolong their lifespan.

You can expect to pay anywhere between £2,000 and £20,000 for dental implants in Harley Street, depending on the number of implants being placed, the experience of the clinician, and the amount of surgical work required (i.e. bone grafting, sinus lift, periodontal treatment).

If you’re interested in dental implants and want to know how much they’ll cost you, arrange a consultation.

Our dentist will discuss your requirements in full and outline the different treatment options available before offering a clear breakdown of the cost. Then, we’ll devise a bespoke treatment plan so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

To get the ball rolling, call us today.
