Losing a tooth, whether through injury, decay or gum disease, can affect the way you eat, speak and feel about your appearance. Unlike dentures or bridges, a dental implant replaces the entire tooth structure from the root upwards, giving you a stable, fixed result that functions just like a natural tooth.
At Knights Dental Brecon on Castle Street, our team provides implant treatment with a plan built around your specific oral health, bone structure and long-term goals. If you are unsure whether implants are right for you, take a look at our dental implants overview for a full explanation of how the treatment works.
Dental implants in Brecon are suited to patients who want a permanent solution rather than something removable. Once the implant has integrated with the jawbone, the result is stable, comfortable and straightforward to maintain with normal brushing and flossing. Patients who are also considering improving the appearance of their smile alongside tooth replacement may find our cosmetic dentistry page a useful starting point.
The best way to find out is to book a consultation at our Brecon practice. Your dentist will assess your bone density, gum health and general health to determine whether implant treatment is appropriate. Factors such as smoking history and certain medical conditions will also be discussed at this stage.
The placement is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the procedure itself. Some mild soreness and swelling in the days following treatment is normal and usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief. Patients who are nervous about the procedure can ask about sedation at their consultation.
From the initial placement to fitting the final crown, treatment typically takes several months. The healing period between placing the implant and fitting the crown is the longest stage, as the bone needs time to bond securely with the titanium post. Your dentist will give you a realistic timeline at your first appointment.
Yes. Multiple implants can be placed to replace several individual teeth. Implants can also be used to support a fixed bridge or an implant-retained denture for patients who are missing a larger number of teeth. Your dentist will advise on the most suitable approach based on your situation.
In some cases, a bone graft may be needed before implant placement to build up the available bone at the site. This is a routine procedure that is assessed as part of the treatment planning process. Your dentist will let you know at your consultation whether this applies to you.
