Implants
We are proud to offer our patients across Kirkcudbright, Dumfries and Galloway, first rate modern Dental Implant treatment.
Dental Implants are a permanent and fixed solution to replace missing teeth.
A small titanium screw is placed into the jawbone to replace the tooth’s natural root, and over a period of months naturally integrates with your body.
For patients apprehensive about undergoing this relatively simple surgical procedure, sedation is available.
One tooth missing
An Implant may be used to replace a single tooth in which case a crown is usually fitted to the implant.
The result is a beautiful new tooth that looks and feels just like a natural tooth.
Several missing teeth
Two or more implants may be used to retain a bridge replacing several missing teeth.
All teeth missing
Several implants may be used to replace a complete arch of missing teeth.
Implant retained dentures
Patients often struggle with loose dentures, particularly in the lower jaw.
An overdenture may be fitted on top of implants to restore proper chewing and improve speech and confidence. The denture will be removable for cleaning and oral hygiene.
