dental implants in London

dental implants

Implant dentistry is a highly specialised field focused on replacing missing teeth in the most natural and lasting way possible. At the core of this treatment are dental implants — artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible materials like titanium or zirconia (which is a ceramic material).

These implants are gently placed into the jawbone, where they gradually integrate with the bone, creating a secure and stable foundation. Once fully healed, a custom-designed dental crown is attached to the implant, restoring  appearance, function, and strength of a natural tooth.

Whether you are missing one tooth or several, dental implants offer a permanent, aesthetic, and reliable solution — helping you smile, speak, and eat with complete confidence.

Zirconia dental implants

As a biological dentistry clinic, many of our patients seek metal-free options, such as ceramic implants, the advantages of the ceramic implants are:

Aesthetically appealing

Biocompatibility and hypoallergenic

Stable, optimal mechanics

Less plaque accumulation

Reduced risk of corrosion

Less discolouration where the gum is thin

Reduced inflammation in the bone and soft tissue

Zirconia dental implants are an excellent alternative to traditional titanium implants. They offer benefits in terms of aesthetics, biocompatibility, and reduced metal sensitivity.

All-on-4 Dental implants

The All-on-4 dental implant treatment is a technique for replacing a full arch of missing teeth with just four dental implants. This treatment is designed to provide a more cost-effective and efficient solution for individuals who have lost all or most of their teeth.

The All-on-4 treatment involves the placement of four dental implants into the jawbone in a specific arrangement that maximizes support and stability. Once the implants are in place, a custom-made dental bridge or denture is attached to the implants, providing a permanent, secure, and natural-looking replacement for the missing teeth.

The All-on-4 treatment offers several benefits over traditional dentures or bridges. Because it requires only four implants per arch, it can be less invasive and less expensive than other implant-supported options. The treatment can often be completed in a single day, allowing patients to leave the dental office with a new set of teeth in just one appointment.

Dental implants are not suitable for everyone. Candidates for dental implants should have good overall health and adequate bone density in the jaw to support the implant. Smokers and individuals with certain medical conditions may not be eligible for dental implant surgery.

If you are considering dental implants, it is important to consult with your dentist at BioDental Clinic Marylebone London who can assess your individual needs and help you determine if this treatment option is right for you.

Implant-Retained Denture

An implant-retained denture is a type of denture that is secured in place with dental implants. This type of denture is designed to provide increased stability and support, as well as improve the overall fit and function of the denture.

Implant-retained dentures offer a number of advantages over traditional dentures. They are more stable and secure, which can improve speaking and chewing abilities. They also help to preserve the jawbone and prevent bone loss that can occur with traditional dentures.

Material Composition and Benefits

  • ZIRCONIUM OXIDE (ZrO₂): Zirconia is a white, strong, and durable ceramic material. It’s often used in various medical and dental applications due to its high resistance to corrosion, wear, and its ability to integrate with bone.
  • AESTHETIC APPEAL: The white color of zirconia implants matches the natural color of teeth, making them particularly attractive for patients who are concerned with the appearance of metal components in their smile, especially in the front of the mouth.

  • BIOCOMPATIBILITY: Zirconia is considered highly biocompatible, meaning it’s less likely to cause allergic reactions or sensitivities. Unlike titanium, which some people may have sensitivities to, zirconia is often well-tolerated by the body.

  • NO METAL SENSITIVITY: Some patients may experience issues with metal-based implants, such as allergies to titanium or nickel. Zirconia implants are metal-free, making them a suitable option for individuals with these sensitivities.

advantages over titanium implants

  • AESTHETICS: Zirconia implants are favored for their natural appearance, especially in visible areas. Since zirconia is white and not metallic, it prevents the possibility of a grayish hue showing through the gums, which can sometimes happen with titanium implants.

  • REDUCED INFLAMMATION: Zirconia may cause less inflammation in the surrounding gum tissue compared to titanium, making it a better choice for some patients.

  • BIOLOGICAL COMPATIBILITY: Since zirconia is a ceramic material, it’s considered biologically inert, meaning it is less likely to interfere with the body’s immune system.
