Dental Implant (Single Tooth)

A dental implant replaces a missing tooth with a titanium screw placed into the jawbone, which then carries a custom ceramic crown. Cuprumdent works with both the Neodent system and premium Straumann BLT/BLX implants, with the surgeon and prosthetist planning each case together. The implant body and the crown are quoted separately, and digital planning with a surgical guide is available where it helps accuracy. A consultation assesses bone, gum health and the best system for your case.

A dental implant is a small titanium post inserted into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, onto which a ceramic crown is later attached. Because the implant integrates with surrounding bone over a healing period, it can restore a single missing tooth without grinding down the neighbouring teeth that a conventional bridge would require. At Cuprumdent the process starts with a consultation and imaging — the clinic offers panoramic and CT scans in-house — so the surgeon can assess bone volume and plan placement, sometimes using a printed surgical guide for added precision. The practice offers a choice of implant systems: the Neodent line as a well-established option, and premium Straumann BLT and BLX implants for cases where their surface and design are preferred. After placement, a healing phase allows the implant to integrate before the gum is reopened with a healing screw if needed and the final ceramic crown is fitted. Where bone is insufficient, the clinic also provides bone regeneration and sinus-lift procedures as separate steps. Having an implantologist and a maxillofacial surgeon in the same centre means more complex cases can be handled in one place. Implants may support long-term tooth replacement and help preserve the surrounding bone, though outcomes depend on healing, oral hygiene and individual health factors, all of which are reviewed before treatment.
