Years experience
Implants placed
Single dental implants are a great option if you only need one tooth replacing. It won’t affect your neighbouring teeth: allowing you to eat, smile, and laugh with confidence.
If you have more than one missing tooth, you don’t necessarily need implants to replace them all. An implant can be placed either side of the gap, and a bridge fitted to fill the space.
Implant secured dentures or ‘clip in’ dentures are an effective solution if you don’t have many natural teeth left, but you do have enough jaw bone to support implants.
If all your teeth are missing or failing, our implant dentists can use All-on-4® to replace an entire arch on just four, strategically placed dental implants.

John's story
When John came to see us he had no teeth on the top and only three teeth on the bottom. He had been referred to various local hospital dentists and had tried many options to improve his smile but was told there was no hope.
After his free consultation John was amazed to hear that we could easily help improve his smile and existing denture which was causing him constant issues as he had a poor gag reflex. John can't quite believe after years of being told it can't be done that it has been and now he has the wonderful smile to say it has!
John is enjoying his new sense of confidence that he just never had before plus he loves to visit the smile team for ongoing check ups and remain part of our little family.
Dental implants are made of titanium and once inserted, they replace your missing tooth root. After it’s fitted, the bone surrounding the implant will gradually integrate with it, holding the implant firmly in place. A crown or bridge (false teeth) that match the colour and shape of your existing teeth is then fitted to the top of the dental implant(s).
The cost of dental implants at The Smile Spa will vary depending on your dental needs. We offer affordable payment plans with 0% finance* (subject to credit checks) to help you spread the cost of your new smile.
The process of having dental implants usually takes between three to nine months but this can vary depending on your individual needs and treatment plan.
Just like natural teeth, dental implants can be damaged by trauma and affected by gum disease and poor dental health. However, if you look after them, they can last for many years.
You’ll usually be given a local anaesthetic (and a sedative, if suitable for you) so you feel more comfortable during your treatment. Most of our patients recover quickly, but you might experience some discomfort and swelling for several days. But don’t worry, we will provide you with aftercare and if you’re worried about anything you can contact us for reassurance and advice.
We don’t recommend having dental implants in other countries. If you have any problems later on, resolving them could be more difficult as you would need to return to your original treatment location (often requiring multiple visits). Also, as there are different implant systems, some may not be compatible with the availability of implant components in other countries.
This is what we’ll discuss in the free consultation. Our experienced team will evaluate your smile and discuss how and if implants can benefit you – no pressure, just answers.
We know that your smile is important, so we want you to be able to start your journey with us as soon as possible. That’s why we are pleased to offer finance options to those who are eligible, starting from as little as 0% APR.
