Dental Implants Horsham
Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a small titanium post that’s placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root, which is then topped with a crown that matches your natural teeth. Implants not only restore the appearance of your smile but also help maintain bone strength and facial structure by preventing bone loss. They look, feel, and function just like real teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
A missing tooth doesn’t just affect your smile, it can change your ability to chew without discomfort and other teeth can tilt or move into the gap. Dental Implants are one of the best and most effective ways of replacing lost teeth. Using a titanium screw to the bone at the site of the lost tooth, a permanent restoration can be added blending with your other teeth. If you are missing one or more teeth and would like to smile, speak, and eat again with comfort and confidence, speak to one of our Dentists.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that replace missing tooth roots and support crowns, bridges, or dentures for a natural-looking and stable result.
Are dental implants painful?
The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you shouldn’t feel pain during treatment. Mild soreness afterwards is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, implants can last for many years — often a lifetime.
Can anyone have dental implants?
Most adults can, but you’ll need healthy gums and enough bone to support the implant. Your dentist will assess your suitability during a consultation.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Implants should be cared for just like natural teeth — with daily brushing, flossing, and regular professional cleanings to keep them healthy and secure.
