Single Tooth Implant in Mira Road
A titanium root placed in the jawbone, topped with a crown. Unlike a bridge, it does not require cutting down the healthy teeth on either side.

Do you need single tooth implant?
Book an assessment if any of these apply to you:
- A single missing tooth
- A tooth that cannot be saved and needs extracting
- An existing bridge that has failed
- A gap where you do not want to cut the neighbouring teeth
- A removable partial denture you dislike
What happens, step by step
- CBCT scan to measure bone height, width and nerve position
- Treatment plan with implant brand, total cost and timeline in writing
- Placement of the titanium implant under local anaesthetic
- Osseointegration — three to six months for bone to fuse to the implant
- Abutment placement and digital impression
- Zirconia crown milled in our CAD/CAM lab and fitted
- Review at one month, six months, then annually
Aftercare
- Ice pack for the first six hours; mild swelling is expected
- Soft diet for one week
- No smoking for at least two weeks — smoking is the single largest cause of implant failure
- Prescribed antibiotics and chlorhexidine rinse to be completed
- Do not disturb the site with your tongue or fingers
- Clean around the implant crown daily with an interdental brush
How we quote single tooth implant
We do not publish a figure for this treatment, because the honest answer is that it depends on what we find. Two patients needing single tooth implant can need very different work. You get your cost in writing after the examination and X-ray — before anything begins.
No surprise billing. We quote after the X-ray and examination, not
during treatment. If the plan changes clinically, we stop and discuss it with you
first. Send a photo on WhatsApp beforehand and we will tell you what is likely involved.
Single Tooth Implant — frequently asked questions
How long does a dental implant last?
With good hygiene and no smoking, implants routinely last 20 years or more, and many last for life. We provide a written warranty card. The crown on top may need replacing after 10 to 15 years of normal wear.
Is implant surgery painful?
Placement is done under local anaesthetic and most patients report less discomfort than an extraction. Expect mild soreness for two to three days, controlled with ordinary painkillers.
How long is the whole process?
Three to six months from placement to final crown, because the bone needs time to fuse to the implant. In selected cases with good bone quality we can place an immediate-loading implant with a temporary crown on the same day.
Implant or bridge — which is better?
An implant, in most cases. A three-unit bridge requires grinding down two healthy neighbouring teeth and needs replacing every 10 to 15 years. An implant leaves the adjacent teeth untouched and preserves the jawbone, which shrinks when a tooth is missing. A bridge is faster and cheaper upfront; an implant usually costs less over 20 years.
Am I too old for an implant?
There is no upper age limit. What matters is bone quality and general health. We routinely place implants for patients in their seventies and eighties. Uncontrolled diabetes and heavy smoking are far bigger risks than age.
What if I do not have enough bone?
Bone grafting or a sinus lift rebuilds the site, usually adding three to six months to the overall timeline. The CBCT scan tells us before treatment starts, so there are no surprises mid-way.
