While implants are an excellent choice, and arguably the best way to replace missing teeth, it is important to consider conservative alternatives such as:

1. root canal therapy
2. advanced restorative and surgical techniques (procedures like deep margin elevation, crown lengthening, apicectomy or root resection can all help save a tooth)
3. auto-transplantation
4. bonded bridges, and any other suitable options

These options may not be suitable for all scenarios but in some cases they may provide alternatives to implants. 

So how do we decide which is best?

This is what our team provide with our comprehensive assessment, including a 3D X-ray so we can assess bone health, the need for any grafting and suitability for an implant.

If you need a dental implant assessment call or email our reception team.

We hope you're doing ok during this lockdown.
Like the last lockdown, we are here for you.
We are taking our usual precautions with COVID. We are asking anyone with any symptoms or concerns of possible exposure risk to reschedule their appointment and we're spacing appointments out. Current advice is also to reschedule non-essential treatment so we are in the process of calling anyone with upcoming appointments to discuss any implications for those appointments. We are aware others have essential or urgent treatment they might not have been able to have fit in. With the current changes it may also be appropriate to bring this forward - please call us to discuss. Our reception staff will check with you at booking and confirmation of your appointment. We continue to ensure our protocols adapt to the evolving advice of the governing health authorities and we'll keep communicating these changes as we receive them.
Call us if you have any questions or concerns. 94871858
