About Dental Implants
We provide a full service of dental implant treatments from replacing individual teeth, bridges, stabilising dentures or full mouth rehabilitations as well as bone grafting and soft tissue grafting if required.
If you have a missing tooth, a dental implant is an ideal solution to replace it. This popular dental treatment is an alternative to replacing a tooth with a bridge. Both look great and improve the function of your teeth, but the dental implant stands on its own without the need to alter surrounding teeth, which is normally required to hold a bridge in place. At the Edinburgh Dental Implant Centre, we have been using Straumann implants successfully for over 20 years.
Dental Implant Technology
A dental implant is a procedure to replace the entire tooth, which is almost like having a whole, new tooth.
The dental implant is a titanium post that is planted into the jawbone to take the place of the missing tooth root. As your body heals, bone and tissue forms around the post as your body begins to treat it like a natural part of you. Once healed, a dental crown will be placed onto the post, which will then look and function like a brand new tooth.
Dental implants offer many benefits including replacing teeth with a solution that looks, functions and feels like real teeth.
