Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing and unreturnable teeth, secured firmly to the jawbone for maximum strength. They are metal posts or frames placed into the jawbone underneath your gums. Zirconia teeth are then firmly mounted to the post or frame, providing an entirely natural look.
Because dental implants are fused to your jawbone, they provide exceptionally stable support, allowing you to eat and speak without issues. Unlike bridges, no neighboring teeth need to be damaged before a dental implant is fitted.

There are several benefits to Dental Implants, which is why it’s such a popular option with many patients in our London practice. We’ve gone over just a few of the Dental Implants benefits below.
The primary reason for dental implant surgery is its aesthetic look. There’s no way to replace missing teeth that looks as realistic. In fact, it will be almost impossible for others to tell that you’ve had a dental implant fitted. Of course, the natural look will only last if you commit to looking after both your teeth and implants.
Dental implants offer an exceptionally long lasting solution. In fact, with the correct care something our dentists can advise you on there’s no reason your dental implants won’t last for so many years to come. The durability also ensures the implants are exceptionally strong, matching your existing teeth in strength.
Dental implants are an exceptionally comfortable choice. While they might feel slightly strange at first, this feeling will disappear, and you won’t even know they’re there after a while. This is in marked contrast to dentures, which are the usual solution for multiple missing teeth offered by the NHS service. You will not generally get dental implants on the NHS – they’re almost usually provided privately.
One serious problem that can be associated with missing teeth is bone loss. The bone surrounding our teeth, called the alveolar bone, relies on teeth to maintain its form. Without teeth, the bone stops rebuilding, which can result in a 25% decrease in bone width in just one year – something that impacts both strength and function. Dental implants provide the required stimulation and ensure the integrity of the bone.

Your Dental Implants treatment will be tailored to your exact requirements; therefore, one treatment can be very different from the next. However, we’ve provided a basic overview of a Dental Implants below.
During the consultation, our experienced dentist will assess your oral health, discuss treatment options, and answer any questions you may have.
This step involves taking detailed scans and X-rays of your teeth and jaw to create a personalized treatment plan. If necessary, preliminary treatments like tooth extraction or bone grafting may be recommended.
Under local anesthesia, the dental implant is surgically placed into the jawbone. Over the next few months, the implant integrates with the bone through a process called osseointegration.
After the implant has fully fused with the jawbone, a dental crown, bridge, or denture is attached. Regular dental visits and proper oral hygiene practices are essential for the long-term success of your dental implant.

I have now visited Twoth on three different occasion... The first time was to take my son (8 years old) to see Dr Counihan for a braces consultation and my son absolutely loved the entire experience from start to finish. In fact, he was so excited and relaxed about it all he wanted to get started immediately.
The second time around, I went to see Dr Counihan myself for a second opinion and found the experience just as good as my son did
Before I found Dr Neil Counihan I had a long history of dental trauma and sadly I repeatedly was subjected to very poor dentistry. I was scared to let anybody near my mouth and teeth. I had lost hope!
Dr Counihan made me the promise, with the right care I can keep my mouth healthy and definitely keep my teeth for the rest of my life.
And most importantly he made me feel safe and listened to
The dental implants procedure begins with removing any remaining tooth that might be present. We then use state-of-the-art technology to map your mouth, allowing us to plan how we’ll move forward.
After this, we perform a small procedure to insert the implant into your gum. Once it has bonded with the bone, we can move ahead with attaching the abutment and then attaching the porcelain tooth. The procedure takes a few weeks, but the fantastic results are worth the wait.
The cost of a dental implant depends on several factors. We’ll be able to give you an exact price once we’ve met with you and performed an initial assessment. However, expect to pay somewhere around £2,850 per implant.
We recognise that the dental implants cost can make this procedure beyond the reach of some people. This is why we provide highly competitive financing for dental implants, so you can spread the cost of the procedure over months, making it more affordable.
Yes, dental implants are completely safe. Your procedure will be performed by a highly trained dentist, ensuring everything is done correctly. You do not need to be concerned about your dental implant procedure.
Dental implants are exceptionally long-lasting, and you should expect your dental implants to remain in excellent condition for so many years. However, this needs a combination of your brushing and flossing together with our regular hygiene sessions which will be recommended to you based on your gum status.
If you ever have any concerns about your dental implant, whether it’s 10 days or 10 years after it was fitted, you should speak to a dentist.
Almost every adult who has lost or damaged a tooth is a candidate for a dental implant. However, you must have a healthy mouth and no decay or gum disease. If you have either, a dentist will be able to advise you about how to treat it.
Some medical conditions, such as blood clotting disorders, will make you unsuitable for this treatment. It is also not wise to perform dental implant surgery on anyone under 18, as their bone tissue might not be fully developed.
The overwhelming majority of dental implants go without a hitch, but there are occasions when the treatment fails. Those who smoke are more likely to experience a failed dental implant, as smoking can damage the gum and the bone surrounding the implant. Stopping smoking will significantly increase the chances of getting a successful dental implant.
You should also remember that there are habits that can damage dental implants. Smoking and drinking certain drinks can permanently stain them while chewing hard items can break the crowns. Also, avoid grinding your teeth – if you do this, a dentist will be able to recommend treatment.
Bone grafting is not something usually required for those receiving dental implants. However, it might be needed if your bone isn’t thick enough or is too soft. We will be able to tell you whether a bone graft is required once we have met you and analysed images taken of your jaw.
If you require bone grafting, we can carry out the procedure here at Twoth. If only minor bone grafting is needed, it can often be carried out at the same time as implant surgery. If you require more extensive bone grafting treatment, the procedure can take several months.
