One tooth,

One missing tooth
━ Benefit
Adjacent teeth untouched
━ Result
Fixed implant crown
━ Location
Erdington, Birmingham
━ Why choose an implant
Replace the root,
not just the gap.
A single implant supports a crown made to match your own teeth. Because the crown is carried by the implant, the teeth either side of the space do not need to be prepared as they would for a bridge.
A gap from a lost or extracted tooth
A tooth that cannot be saved
Wanting to avoid a denture
Healthy gums and adequate bone
━ Common situations
When one implant is the answer.
Every case is assessed individually before an implant is recommended.
After an extraction
A cracked tooth
Where a tooth is beyond repair, planning a replacement early helps.
Long-standing gap
Failed root treatment
Front tooth loss
Careful planning focuses on gum shape and appearance as well as function.

━ Questions answered
Single tooth implant FAQs.
Straightforward answers to the questions patients in Birmingham ask us most often.
Most single implant cases take several months from placement to final crown, allowing the implant to integrate. Your dentist will confirm a timeline for you.
The crown is made in a laboratory and shaded to your neighbouring teeth. Appearance is checked before it is finally fitted.
Placement is done with local anaesthetic. Mild soreness for a few days afterwards is usual and can normally be managed with simple pain relief.
Bone grafting may be recommended to build up the site. Your dentist will explain whether this applies to you after imaging.
Yes. We are based in Erdington and see patients from across Birmingham, including Sutton Coldfield and the surrounding areas.
