A dental implant is a titanium screw that is carefully inserted underneath the gum and into your jawbone. During a minimum of 3 months of healing, your bone will naturally fuse to the dental implant, making for a nice and secure fit to support the implant.
A master ceramist precisely crafts an artificial tooth (also referred to as a dental crown) to perfectly emulate the shape, size and colour of your existing teeth and is carefully fitted on top of the implant base to complete the look.
Dental implants are the gold standard solution for replacing missing, damaged or broken teeth. They’re far more reliable than having removable dentures; they feel more natural and are known to stand the test of time.
Perhaps you avoid social situations, or you hate posing for photographs. Dental implant treatment will improve your confidence and allow you to feel better about yourself and your life by improving the appearance of your smile.

Dr Vishal Patel provides a comprehensive range of dental implant treatments subject to the clients’ needs. At VP Implantology, our treatments cover the full spectrum of implant procedures available, ranging from single implant treatments to multiple implant cases to immediate same-day implants to sinus lift surgery involving bone grafting to finally, the prestigious All-on-4 treatment, also known as “The Teeth in a Day Experience”.
Patients who have lost a single tooth or multiple teeth or severely decayed or loose teeth may be suitable for dental implant replacements. Dental implants are carefully inserted underneath your gum to provide an artificial tooth root and a secure foundation for your new crown.
Whether you are missing multiple teeth or have severely damaged teeth in different regions of the mouth that require removal. Multiple implant replacements can restore function, making eating less awkward and uncomfortable.
Just like any other implant procedure, we give you local anaesthetic before carefully inserting the titanium screw beneath the gum and into your jaw at the different sites in the mouth.
Following a short healing period of usually 3 months, we take accurate impressions of your healed implants for your bespoke crowns to be precisely crafted by our master ceramist, which is fitted directly onto your implants.
Replacing multiple teeth with implants is a long-term solution to missing and severely damaged teeth and can benefit you for years to come.
Gum disease, trauma, and extensive bone loss following tooth extraction are reasons a patient may not have enough bone structure to support a dental implant. Bone substitute materials can increase the amount of bone available for an implant and improve implant treatment outcomes.
The sinuses are naturally occurring air spaces within the bone around the nose. The roots of the upper back molar teeth often lie close to the air sinuses. When these upper back cheek teeth are removed, the air sinuses that lie above the roots often increase in size, and as a result, bone is lost from the area.
Although this is a natural process, it does cause problems if dental implants are placed in the area to replace missing molar teeth. It is important for dental implants must be placed into as much sound bone as possible if they are to function successfully long term. Therefore, a sinus lift procedure is recommended to replace the missing bone before implant placement.
It involves carefully entering the enlarged sinus and gently inserting bone substitute materials to restore the missing bone in the area. This procedure is usually carried out under local anaesthetic with or without sedation as required.

Implants are a long-lasting and affordable option for replacing missing teeth. One alternative is removable plastic dentures, which works out to be more expensive in the long run with their need to be adjusted and replaced regularly. This is not the same for dental implants, which only require the same level of care and attention just like your natural teeth.

After your successful implant procedure, it is common to experience mild soreness for a few days following treatment. This should not alarm you as it is a very normal thing. Luckily, there are some proven ways to make the soreness and discomfort managable once you leave the clinic. The best way to manage pain following your dental implant treatment is to take painkillers at the recommended dosage and intervals for the first one-to-two days.
If the pain is unbearable or still persists after a few days, contact us and we will be glad to assist you.
Your new teeth give you every reason to be excited, but immediately following your treatment it is important to be sensible with your choice of foods and drinks. It is our recommendation following proven success that you consume only soft foods for the first 3 months during the healing period. This includes anything that you can pierce through with the side of a fork. Your gums will be sensitive which means that you will experience a lot of discomfort if you bite on hard things too early.
Eat a healthy diet and avoid hard foods for now. It’s important to understand that you should avoid smoking and consuming alcohol during the healing period as it may affect the chances of a successful treatment outcome.
Although this varies from patient to patient, generally speaking it can take a minimum of 3-6 months for your implants to properly heal.
We do not turn a blind eye to this issue either, even though it is very rare. Occasionally, the healing around the implant may be compromised, resulting in an infection. Once we have identified this to be the case, we will list the immediate steps that need to be taken to resolve the infection.
Signs of infection:
Treating infections:
As dental implant treatment is considered as an elective procedure, we advise that you defer your treatment until after your delivery to reduce the risk of complications occurring.
This is because, during a dental implant procedure, sedation is sometimes used, which can be risky for the unborn child. In addition, many implant procedures require radiographs to be taken throughout the surgery, which could further increase the risk of complications during your pregnancy.
Ideally, it is better to wait post-pregnancy.
The short answer is yes. Dental implant procedures have been carried out successfully for many years in dentistry, with the evidence continuing to favour them as the gold-standard solution for teeth replacement. They offer patients a chance to renew their smile, re-establishing lost confidence.
If you’ve had missing, cracked or broken teeth for some time now and it’s affecting your confidence when it comes to eating, drinking and smiling, then it’s time to start considering dental implants.
Dental implants are the gold-standard tooth replacement option in dentistry. Unlike dentures and other forms of artificial teeth, dental implants do not become loose or fall out without there being a significant underlying issue. This means that your visits to the dentist are considerably reduced!
Overtime, it is normal for your natural teeth to discolour a little. To look your absolute best, you may consider having them whitened. However, dental implant restorations are made from ceramic, a material that is resistant to the whitening agents that are used by cosmetic dentists. Therefore your dental implant restorations will not whiten, which is why it is important to discuss your teeth whitening needs with your dentist before having your implant restoration fabricated.
The only current way to whiten your implant is by having the crown replaced entirely to your preferred colour choice.
Whilst there are several dentists that provide implant treatments, Dr Vishal Patel at VP Implantology has completely dedicated himself to understanding the full-scope behind dental implantology, making him a true expert accredited in his field.
Whilst receiving your dental implant treatment with Dr Patel, you are guaranteed a safe, caring and pleasant experience.
Gum disease begins with poor oral hygeine, which causes plaque to build up around your teeth.
Plaque becomes deposited when there is no consistency in your brushing schedule along with an inaccurate brushing technique. If left untreated, gum disease weakens your gum tissue and subsequently your jawbone.
Many people choose to get dental implants despite having gum disease, however there is a risk that your implant will not sit as firmly and securely as it should, thus compromising the longevity of the dental implant treatment.
It is essential that gum disease is treated and stabilised before considering dental implant treatment.
It’s rare to come across patients who are not suitable to have dental implants, however there are just some instances where we do not provide dental implant treatment for the safety of the patient, such as:
