Single Dental Implants

The best tooth replacement is the one you stop thinking about.

Drayton House Dental Practice

If you’ve lost a tooth through injury, decay or gum disease, a single dental implant is designed to look, feel and function like a natural tooth. Once treatment is complete, it should simply become part of everyday life. It’s a long-term way of replacing a missing tooth while protecting the healthy teeth around it.

Is a single dental implant right for me?

A single dental implant is often the closest replacement to having your natural tooth back.

Unlike a dental bridge, an implant doesn’t rely on the neighbouring teeth for support. Instead, a small titanium implant is placed into the jawbone, where it acts as an artificial tooth root. Once it’s healed, a custom-made crown is fitted on top to complete your smile. We’ll examine your mouth, talk through your options and help you decide whether implant treatment is the right choice for you.

Why choose a single dental implant?

Single dental implants can:

  • Replace one missing tooth without affecting neighbouring teeth.
  • Help maintain a healthy jawbone.
  • Restore comfortable chewing and biting.
  • Blend naturally with your smile.
  • Provide a secure, long-lasting solution.
  • Support your long-term oral health.

Our aim is always to create a replacement that feels comfortable, functions naturally and looks like it belongs.

Why choose Drayton House for single dental implants?

Replacing a missing tooth is a big decision. Our job isn’t simply to place an implant. It’s to help you decide whether it’s the right solution in the first place.

We’ll explain the different options available, answer your questions honestly and make sure you feel confident before moving ahead with treatment. From careful planning and digital technology to high-quality implant restorations, every stage of treatment is designed around achieving a result that feels natural and is built to last.

Your implant journey

Step 1

Consultation

Successful implant treatment starts with careful planning. We’ll begin by assessing your oral health, discussing your goals and explaining every stage of treatment before anything begins. Throughout treatment, we’ll keep you informed, so you’ll always know what’s happening and what comes next.

Step 2

Treatment

A single dental implant will be placed. A bespoke treatment letter will outline all the information for you so that you can follow every treatment detail along your implant journey.

Step 3

Review

Once your implant has healed, we’ll use our digital TRIOS scanner to capture an accurate 3D scan of your mouth. It’s far more comfortable than traditional impressions and helps us create a crown that fits beautifully and blends naturally with your smile.

I joined one of the care plans in Drayton House about 4 years ago and have kept it. After my visits and nice experiences, I recommended it to my friends. All of the staff there are extremely friendly. The environment and internal settings are very clean and modern. Dr Shah is professional, patient, thorough and caring. The referrals he made for us were timely and proper. The treatments he did for us were very satisfying.

Excellent dental practice. Dr Ria has been fantastic always, especially in arranging my son’s referral for treatment, and a special thank you to Julia on reception who went above and beyond to make the referral process happen quickly and smoothly. She was incredibly supportive, compassionate, and reassuring throughout, keeping me informed and making what could have been a stressful situation much easier. AMAZING TEAM. We are very grateful for their professionalism and kindness. Highly recommended.

We have been going to Drayton house dental practice for over 40 years, I've never found such a good kind and friendly practice, when we moved to Brighton, we still visit twice a year, and won't be changing.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a single dental implant last?

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a dental implant can last for many years. Looking after your gums and attending routine maintenance appointments plays an important part in its long-term success.

Will my implant look like a real tooth?

Yes. Every implant crown is individually designed to match the colour, shape and character of your surrounding teeth, helping it blend naturally into your smile.

Is implant treatment painful?

Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you should feel comfortable throughout the procedure.

How long does treatment take?

Every patient is different. The overall treatment time depends on healing and whether any additional procedures are needed before the implant is restored with its final crown. We’ll provide a personalised treatment plan during your consultation.
