Dental Implant (Single Tooth)

A titanium dental implant replaces the root of a single missing tooth, providing a fixed foundation for a crown without grinding down neighbouring teeth. At DentalCover, placement is planned from a CBCT scan taken in the clinic's own radiology lab, and the procedure is carried out by experienced implantologists. Healing screws, abutments and the final ceramic crown are quoted separately, so each stage of treatment is transparent. Sedation and general-anaesthesia options are available for nervous patients.

A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to take the role of a natural tooth root. Once it has integrated with the surrounding bone, it supports a crown that looks and functions like the tooth it replaces, without relying on or altering the adjacent teeth the way a conventional bridge does. At DentalCover the process starts with an implantology consultation and a CBCT scan performed on site, which lets the implantologist assess bone volume and plan the exact position before any procedure. Implant placement itself is typically a single appointment under local anaesthesia, with nitrous-oxide sedation or general anaesthesia offered for patients who find treatment stressful. After placement a period of healing allows the bone to bond to the implant, often with a healing screw fitted to shape the gum; the clinic then restores the implant with a porcelain-fused-to-metal or zirconia ceramic crown on a standard or individually milled abutment. Where a tooth is being removed, immediate implant placement at the same visit may be possible. Because the price is broken down by stage — placement, healing screw, abutment and crown — patients can see what each part of treatment costs. Implant dentistry is well suited to adults with one or more missing teeth and adequate bone; the clinic also offers guided bone regeneration and sinus-lift procedures where extra support is needed, all reviewed at the planning consultation.
