    Why should I have an implant?

    Dental Implants are the best way to replace a missing tooth or teeth as they not only look like your natural teeth, but behave like them too, which means they keep and promote bone around them to maintain facial structure, maintain your gumline, to ensure your tooth looks natural, enable you to eat normally and give you much more confidence both at work and socially. Being confident in how you look and eat is one of the most important things you can give yourself for peace of mind and quality of life.

    Can anyone have an implant?

    New advances in technology now means more people than ever before are benefitting from dental implants. This is because we can use the new technology to find the optimum bone to place it into and use navigation planning to ensure we place it precisely where planned. At Summertown Dental & Implants in Oxford we only use implant systems from industry leading companies that invest in research to ensure their implant type will always provide the best aesthetic result. We also educate patients throughout the implant process so they remain committed to maintaining good gum health to ensure the implant, like natural teeth, will last. We’ll always advise patients who need to restore their gum health before implants can be placed at their first consultation.

    Are dental implants painful?

    Dental implant surgery is probably the most complex dental treatment available. It’s why patients often do a lot of research before deciding on which dental practice to use. Dr Satinder Dhami is one of the most experienced dental implant specialists in the UK which means his surgical technique is fined tuned to cause as little trauma to the surrounding area to where the implant is placed, as possible. The post-operative care you’ll receive is also as good as it gets which is why we see so many dental implant patients at Summertown Dental & Implants in Oxford.
