Dental Implants at Sherwood Smiles

Missing teeth can affect not only your smile but also your ability to chew, speak and maintain good oral health. At Sherwood Smiles, we offer dental implants as a long-lasting, natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. Designed to function like a natural tooth, dental implants help restore strength, stability and confidence while supporting your overall oral health.

Dental implants also play an important role in preserving jawbone structure and preventing surrounding teeth from shifting over time. Using modern techniques and careful planning, our team provides personalised implant treatment to achieve a comfortable fit, natural appearance and long-term results.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures, offering a permanent and durable replacement for missing teeth.

Components of a Dental Implant

  • Implant Post: The titanium screw that integrates with the jawbone.
  • Abutment: A connector that attaches the crown, bridge, or denture to the implant.
  • Restoration: The visible part of the implant, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, designed to match your natural teeth.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance. They are custom-made to blend with your natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak and smile with confidence. Implants also help preserve jawbone structure by preventing bone loss, while providing stable, secure support without the movement often associated with dentures.

Who Can Benefit from Dental Implants?

Dental implants are suitable for many patients with good oral and general health. They are ideal for those with one or more missing teeth, adequate jawbone support and a commitment to maintaining good oral hygiene. If bone loss is present, procedures such as bone grafting may be recommended before treatment.

Our Dental Implant Process

Your treatment begins with a consultation and detailed assessment using digital X-rays or 3D imaging to plan implant placement. A titanium post is then placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia, where it integrates with the bone over time to form a strong foundation. Once healed, an abutment is attached, followed by a custom-made crown, bridge or denture to restore the look and function of your smile.
