Dental Implants in Peterborough - Your Path to a Perfect Smile

We're just 12 miles from Peterborough in Stamford - approximately 20 minutes via the A1 and A43. The journey is straightforward, and we have free parking available at the practice. Many Peterborough patients appreciate accessing specialist implant care so close to home.

Implants are permanent and don't slip, click, or need adhesives. They feel exactly like natural teeth, allow you to eat anything without restriction, and preserve your jawbone. Dentures can accelerate bone loss and often need replacing every 5-7 years, while implants can last a lifetime.

From initial consultation to final crown, expect 4-6 months. This includes the crucial 3-6 month healing period when the implant fuses with your jawbone. While this seems long, it's essential for creating a permanent, stable result. You'll have temporary teeth during this time.

The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so you won't feel pain - just pressure. Many patients say it was less uncomfortable than having a tooth extraction. We also offer sedation for nervous patients. Post-surgery discomfort is typically mild and managed easily with over-the-counter painkillers.

Age is rarely a barrier to dental implants. We've successfully placed implants in patients in their 80s and 90s. What matters is your overall health and bone quality. As long as you're healthy enough for routine dental treatment and have adequate bone, age shouldn't prevent you from having implants.

A single implant including the crown costs £2,200-£3,000 depending on complexity. While this is more than a bridge or denture initially, implants can last a lifetime, making them better value long-term. We offer 0% interest finance from £99/month to make treatment affordable.

Yes, in most cases. Even if you've been without teeth for years, implants may still be possible. If there's been bone loss, we can perform bone grafting to rebuild the foundation needed. We'll assess your individual situation at your free consultation.

Not necessarily. For multiple missing teeth, we can use implant-supported bridges where fewer implants support multiple crowns. For full arch replacement, techniques like All-on-4 can restore all your upper or lower teeth with just four strategically placed implants.
