Dental Implant (Single Tooth)

A dental implant replaces a missing tooth with a small titanium post placed in the jawbone, which acts as a root for a fixed ceramic crown. At KM Dental Experts the surgical placement is carried out with the support of in-house cone-beam imaging, and the matching implant crown is fitted once the implant has integrated. It is an option for a single gap or for stabilising larger restorations, and the centre's maxillofacial surgeon handles more demanding cases. Final pricing is set per tooth after a planning scan.

A dental implant is a titanium fixture inserted into the jawbone to take the place of a natural tooth root. Once positioned, the surrounding bone gradually bonds to the implant surface over a healing period, after which a custom abutment and a ceramic crown are attached to restore chewing and appearance. Because the implant is anchored in bone rather than resting on neighbouring teeth, it does not require those teeth to be reduced for a bridge. At KM Dental Experts treatment begins with an examination and cone-beam CT or panoramic imaging so the team can assess bone volume and the position of nerves and sinuses before surgery. The fixture is placed under local anaesthetic, and the centre lists separate stages — implant placement, the implant crown and, where needed, a custom abutment, bone procedures or sinus floor elevation — so the plan can be tailored to each case. A maxillofacial surgeon is part of the team for more complex surgical situations. Implants may be suitable for replacing one tooth, several teeth, or for anchoring larger prosthetic work, and they help preserve jawbone that would otherwise be lost after extraction. Outcomes are associated with good oral hygiene, healthy gums and not smoking, all of which are reviewed before treatment. Suitability, the number of appointments and the total cost are confirmed after the planning scan; this listing reflects the per-stage fixture and crown prices, and the doctor will set the final per-tooth quote at consultation.
