25 Years Experience Placing Dental implants

  1. Over 20 years of experience replacing teeth
  2. Thousands of implants placed
  3. Flexible finance (0% interest) and 5-year payment plans
 
Our single implants cost from £3,500 to £4,900. The higher end of the price will include any pre-implant procedures you might require, like bone grafts or sinus lifts, if your missing teeth case is complex. However, most patients pay £3,500.

Single implants explained

What is a dental implant and how does it work?

  • A dental implant is designed to act like an artificial tooth root, which is a titanium screw securely positioned in the jaw.
  • A crown is placed on top of the abutment that screws into the implant – and this will be the actual tooth.
  • Dental implants support vital bone structure and do not decay remaining teeth like dentures or bridgework.
  • Dental implants are the most natural-looking tooth replacement solution.

Dental implants can replace missing teeth and can be placed in the front or back of your smile. They’re the ideal next step for patients requiring tooth extractions or failing teeth.

Suitable candidates

You can qualify for single implant treatment if:

  1. You have a lost, loose or heavily damaged tooth
  2. Have a broken, cracked, decayed tooth that is beyond repair
  3. A tooth has been damaged due to trauma, injury, gum disease or an accident

If you have just lost a tooth, we advise visiting our practice immediately and having this problem resurrected.

The longer you ignore gaps in your mouth, the more you open yourself up for pricier and invasive procedures in the future when the bone in the jaw collapses.

When tooth loss occurs, remaining neighbouring teeth suffer from significant consequences as there is an increased load and pressure they need to bear. On top of this, bone in the jaw begins to deplete, which means teeth move out of their firm positions.

Therefore, typical side effects include facial contortion, wobbly teeth and shifting teeth.

Highly recommend Dorset Dental Clinic for dental implants. I was referred to Phil by my regular local dentist, as he assured me that he was the best around for implants, he was absolutely right and I am so glad I took his advice. If anyone is thinking of having dental implants, and are a bit nervous of the process, don’t be, it really is easy with the right team doing it. Thank you so much Dorset dental clinic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My dentist put me in touch with Dorset Dental implants just over 3 years ago in relation to having an implant and I am very pleased he did. The three year wait was due to having to go under general anaesthetic at Poole Hospital to have an embedded tooth removed. Doctor Philip McCauley advised me that there would be a wait and was kind enough to give detail on the scans and the complexities of my case twice. The second time he allowed me to film them on my phone as the hospital were unable to locate the original file. This was particularly helpful as I had just ran over the road from the hospital appointment and back again, job done. I've now had the implant fitted and cannot thank Philip and his team any more. They explain everything in detail, put you at ease, offer after care and although I am mid-treatment I have no worries that all will end well.

I have been having my teeth problems attended to by DDI since the practice opened and have received excellent service from them. I have had 13 implants over the past 25 years in the USA and the UK and I can say with conviction that the service I have received at DDI has been the best.
