Loddon Bridge Road Dental Practice

Implant cases here are led by Dr Ahmed Aleshaiker, a GDC registered dental surgeon, supported by a small named team who work on these cases specifically rather than a rotating roster.

That consistency matters for a treatment that runs over several appointments and often several months. It is not a specialism in the formal sense, since there is no specialist list for implant dentistry, but it is a team that has done this work together many times. If continuity of care matters to you, that is worth knowing before you book.

An implant price on its own does not tell you much until you know what it covers.

A single implant is really a few stages, the fixture placed in the jaw, the part that connects to it, and the crown on top, plus the planning and scans along the way. At this practice implants start from a set figure, confirmed properly at assessment once the dentist has seen what your case needs. Asking what is and is not included is a fair question, and a good practice will answer it plainly rather than quoting a headline number.

A gap from a missing tooth can be closed in more than one way, and an implant is not always the only sensible route. A bridge uses the neighbouring teeth for support, which means preparing those teeth. An implant stands on its own in the jaw and leaves the neighbours untouched.

Each suits different situations, and cost, bone and the state of the surrounding teeth all feed into which makes sense for you. This is the kind of thing worked through properly at a consultation rather than decided from a leaflet.

The placement itself is done under local anaesthetic, so the procedure is not painful while it is happening. Some tenderness or swelling afterward is common and usually manageable with ordinary painkillers, much like after a tooth is taken out. Nobody here would promise a painless experience, because that would not be accurate.

What is fair to say is that most patients describe it as far more manageable than they feared going in. If discomfort is the thing holding you back, raise it directly at a consultation rather than assuming the worst.

Implants are not automatically right for everyone, and it is more honest to say that plainly. Certain gum conditions, some medications, heavy smoking and insufficient bone can all affect whether an implant is a safe or sensible choice, and sometimes another approach genuinely suits a particular case better.

None of that can be judged from a photo or a phone call. It takes a proper assessment. Saying a treatment is not right for everyone is not a reason to avoid asking, it is exactly why the conversation is worth having. Book an assessment and get a straight answer about your own situation.

Plenty of people put off asking about implants because they picture a hard sell at the first visit. That is not how it works here. The first appointment is a conversation and an assessment, with a scan where needed, so you and the dentist can see whether an implant is realistic for you before any decision is made.

Consultations are free for registered patients, with a small fee for anyone not yet registered. Nothing is promised at this stage. Suitability always follows a proper clinical assessment, and the cost depends on what your case actually needs.

Loose dentures can make eating, speaking, and smiling feel less comfortable for some patients. Implant-retained dentures are designed to attach to implants for improved denture stability.

A consultation helps assess whether your gums, bone support, and denture needs are suitable.

Missing several teeth may affect bite balance, comfort, and how confidently you smile or eat.Implant-supported solutions may help replace multiple missing teeth with carefully planned restorations.

Your treatment plan depends on bone condition, gum health, bite pressure, and the number of missing teeth.

One missing tooth can affect chewing comfort, smile appearance, and everyday confidence. A single dental implant may support one replacement crown without relying on neighbouring teeth.

From gap assessment to final crown placement, every stage is planned around your dental needs.
