Dental Implants for Boston Patients - Permanent Tooth Replacement

Many Boston patients tell us the journey to Stamford is absolutely worthwhile for the expertise and quality of care we provide. Dental implants are a significant investment in your oral health that can last a lifetime, so choosing the right implant dentist is crucial. We schedule appointments efficiently to minimize travel, and many patients combine their dental visit with enjoying historic Stamford. The results you'll enjoy for decades make the journey well worth it.

Most healthy adults with sufficient jawbone are suitable for dental implants. Factors like gum disease, smoking, and certain medical conditions may need addressing first but rarely prevent treatment. We offer free consultations where we'll assess your suitability using clinical examination and 3D imaging if needed. Even if you've been told you lack adequate bone, modern bone grafting techniques mean most Boston patients can still have successful implant treatment.

With proper care and regular checkups, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium implant post typically remains permanently integrated with your jawbone. The crown on top may need replacing after 10-15 years due to normal wear, similar to natural teeth. Many of our long-term Boston patients have enjoyed their implants for 15-20+ years with excellent ongoing results and no complications.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you won't feel pain during surgery - just pressure and vibration. Most Boston patients are surprised by how comfortable it is - often easier than having a tooth removed. Post-surgery discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter painkillers for a few days. Many patients drive themselves home after treatment. Sedation is available if you're particularly anxious.

A single dental implant with crown typically ranges from £2,200 to £3,000 depending on complexity. While higher than alternatives initially, implants often prove more economical long-term as they can last a lifetime and don't require damaging adjacent teeth. We offer flexible finance with 0% interest available. You'll receive detailed, transparent pricing at your free consultation with no hidden costs - Boston patients appreciate our honest, upfront approach.

Yes! Dental implants can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch. We offer implant-supported bridges for multiple missing teeth, and All-on-4/All-on-6 treatments for full arch restoration with just 4-6 implants. We'll recommend the most appropriate and cost-effective solution during your consultation. Many Boston patients have successfully had multiple implant treatments at our practice with excellent results.

If you've experienced bone loss, you may still be a candidate for implants. We offer bone grafting procedures to build up the jawbone before implant placement. While this adds time to the process, it allows us to provide stable, long-lasting implants. We'll use 3D CT scans to assess your bone volume during your free consultation and discuss all your options honestly and thoroughly.

Implants offer significant advantages over traditional options. Unlike bridges, they don't require grinding down healthy adjacent teeth. Unlike dentures, they're permanently fixed - no slipping, adhesives, or removal for cleaning. Most importantly, implants preserve your jawbone by stimulating it like natural roots, preventing the bone loss and facial changes that occur with dentures. Boston patients consistently tell us implants feel like having their natural teeth back.
