Dental Implants
Replace missing teeth with fixed implants that look and feel like your own, so you can eat, speak and smile with confidence.
A permanent root for a new tooth
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Once the bone has healed around it, a crown is fixed on top, giving you a tooth that looks and works like a natural one.
Where several or all teeth are missing, implants can support a bridge or a full arch. This is called full-mouth rehabilitation.
See a dentist if you notice any of these
Fixed, permanent options
Single implants
One implant and crown to replace one missing tooth, without touching the teeth beside it.

From scan to final teeth
You know the number of visits and the cost before treatment starts.
We examine your mouth and take a digital scan to check the bone and plan the position of each implant.
You get the plan, the timeline and the cost in plain language before treatment starts.
The implant is placed under local anaesthetic. Conscious sedation is available if you are anxious.
The bone bonds with the implant over a few months. A temporary tooth can be fitted in the meantime.
Your crown or bridge is made to match your other teeth and fixed onto the implant.
We review the fit and your bite, and show you how to care for your new teeth.
Why patients choose dental implants at Oyster
Implants are placed under local anaesthetic, with conscious sedation for anxious patients.
Implant crowns and bridges are shade-matched and shaped to suit your face.
An implant stimulates the bone, which helps prevent the shrinkage that follows tooth loss.
Fixed teeth let you chew comfortably again, with nothing to take out at night.
Precise, and more comfortable
The area is fully numbed, and most patients say it is easier than an extraction. Conscious sedation is available if you are anxious.
