Implants

Implants are the latest technology that enables us to replace missing teeth.

An implant can be seen as a artificial root (made of a metal called titanium) that replaces the root of a tooth that has been lost. Bone grows right onto an implant forming a solid structure. We can then place single crowns or bridges onto the implant. They can also be used to retain dentures enabling our patients to eat and smile with confidence.

Michael Meyer: "Dentists need to undertake special training to be able to do implants and I have been trained by Dr Hilt Tatum at the Tatum Institute for Implantology. Dr Tatum is world renown as being a specialist in implantology. I am also a member of the Association of Dental Implantologists."
