What are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small post placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or teeth. After healing, the implant may support a crown, bridge or removable restoration, depending on the number and position of missing teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a durable, long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They help preserve the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure, while providing a stable foundation for chewing and speaking. With a high success rate, implants are an excellent choice for filling missing gaps.

Single Dental Implant
A single implant may replace one missing tooth without using neighbouring teeth for support. After healing, it is restored with a custom-made crown.
Multiple Dental Implants and Implant Bridges
Several missing teeth do not always require one implant per tooth. Two or more implants may support a fixed bridge, depending on the position of the missing teeth and the available bone.
Implant-Retained Dentures
Selected removable dentures may be stabilised using dental implants. The denture remains removable for cleaning but may feel more secure during speaking and eating.
Full Arch Dental Implants
Where most or all teeth in an arch are missing or cannot be restored predictably, multiple implants may support a fixed full arch restoration.
Kington Dental's Approach to Dental Implants
As a leading provider of dental implants in Herefordshire, we use the latest CBCT scanning technology to digitally plan your treatment so that we can place implants in the most suitable place and with precise positioning for aesthetic restorations.
Consultation and Planning
A thorough dental examination is conducted to assess your oral health and determine your suitability.
Implant Placement
The implant is placed under local anaesthetic, with sedation discussed where appropriate. Placement may be immediate or delayed, and temporary tooth may be provided. Aftercare instructions explain recovery, cleaning, diet and when to contact us.
Osseointegration
The implant is normally allowed time to integrate with the surrounding bone. Healing time varies according to the implant site, bone condition and treatment plan. In some cases, an implant may not integrate successfully and further treatment may be required.
Crown Placement
Once healing is satisfactory, the implant may be restored with a crown, bridge or denture attachment, depending on the agreed treatment plan. The restoration will be designed around your bite, available space and surrounding teeth.
Aftercare and Recovery
Your dentist will provide instructions based on the procedure completed. These may include advice about cleaning, diet, medication, smoking and temporary restorations.
Once treatment is complete, implants require daily plaque control and regular professional reviews. The gums and bone around implants can develop inflammation and disease, so bleeding, swelling, tenderness or changes in the restoration should be assessed promptly.
Restoring Missing Teeth with a Personalised Plan
Dental implants may help restore appearance and function where teeth are missing. The result depends on the number and position of missing teeth, the available bone, the final restoration and your wider oral health. Your dentist will explain what can reasonably be expected in your individual case.
