Dental implants built to last, smiles built to shine
Losing a tooth doesn’t just steal your smile—it can drag down your confidence every time you eat, speak, or simply go about your day. At Showground Dental, we offer high-quality dental implants that look, feel, and function like natural teeth—restoring your confidence, comfort, and quality of life with expert, caring hands.
Dental implants
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into your jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone, providing a strong and stable foundation for a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture.
Each implant consists of three key components:
Implant post: A biocompatible titanium screw that integrates with your jawbone.
Abutment: A small connector that links the implant to the artificial tooth.
Custom restoration: A natural-looking replacement tooth (crown, bridge, or denture) designed to match your smile.
Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support. They also help prevent bone loss in the jaw, preserving your facial structure.
The life-changing benefits of dental implants
✔ Permanent & long-lasting: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, unlike dentures or bridges that may need replacement.
✔ Natural look & feel: Designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for an authentic, confident smile.
✔ Restores chewing & speaking ability: Enjoy all your favourite foods without discomfort or restrictions.
✔ Prevents bone loss & facial sagging: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the sunken appearance caused by missing teeth.
✔ No damage to adjacent teeth: Unlike dental bridges, implants don’t require grinding down healthy teeth for support.
✔ Secure & comfortable: No slipping, shifting, or discomfort—implants are fixed in place, just like natural teeth.
Are you a candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with good overall health and healthy gums can receive dental implants. The best candidates:
- Have sufficient jawbone density to support the implant.
- Are free from severe gum disease or active infections.
- Are committed to excellent oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
What if I have bone loss?
If your jawbone has deteriorated due to missing teeth, bone grafting may be recommended to rebuild the structure before implant placement. Our team will assess your bone health and discuss the best options for you.
Dental implant process
Step 1: Consultation & 3D imaging
We begin with a comprehensive assessment using advanced 3D imaging to evaluate your bone health, gum condition, and overall suitability for implants.
Step 2: Implant placement surgery
Under local anaesthesia, the titanium implant post is precisely placed into your jawbone. Over the next 3 to 6 months, the implant naturally fuses with the bone in a process called osseointegration, ensuring maximum stability.
Step 3: Abutment placement
Once the implant has integrated, we attach the abutment, which serves as a connector between the implant and the final tooth restoration.
Step 4: Custom-made crown, bridge, or denture placement
A custom-designed tooth replacement is secured to the implant. We carefully match the colour, size, and shape of your natural teeth for a seamless appearance.
Healing & aftercare: While healing times vary, most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. Proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits will help ensure long-term success.
Types of dental implants we offer
- Single tooth implants: Ideal for replacing one missing tooth with a natural-looking crown.
- Implant-supported bridges: Replaces multiple missing teeth without affecting surrounding healthy teeth.
- Full arch implants (All-on-4/All-on-X): A fixed solution for full-mouth tooth loss, using as few as four implants to support an entire arch of teeth.
