Dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth, with many patients enjoying their benefits for decades. On average, dental implants can last 15–25 years or even a lifetime with proper care. The lifespan of an implant largely depends on factors such as oral hygiene, lifestyle habits, and regular dental check-ups.

At Fleckney Dental in Leicestershire, our team is dedicated to helping patients achieve lasting results with dental implants. We use high-quality materials and the latest techniques to ensure that our implants are durable and reliable. Regular visits to our Leicestershire practice allow our specialists to monitor the implant’s health and catch any potential issues early. Additionally, maintaining good oral hygiene at home, such as brushing, flossing, and avoiding smoking, plays a significant role in extending the lifespan of dental implants.

With the right care, dental implants from Fleckney Dental can provide a natural-looking, permanent solution that allows patients in Leicestershire to enjoy a confident smile for many years.

Yes, dental implants are generally a very safe and reliable solution for replacing missing teeth. They have been used successfully for decades, with a high success rate of around 95–98% in suitable candidates. Dental implants are made from biocompatible materials like titanium, which integrates naturally with the jawbone, creating a stable and secure foundation for replacement teeth.

At Fleckney Dental in Leicestershire, we follow strict safety protocols and use high-quality materials to ensure each dental implant procedure is as safe as possible. Our experienced team will conduct a thorough assessment of your oral health and bone density to determine if implants are the best choice for you. By working closely with you, we can address any specific concerns and provide personalised care throughout the entire process, making dental implants a safe and effective option for restoring your smile.

No, you don’t have to be without teeth during the dental implant process. At Fleckney Dental, we understand the importance of maintaining your smile and confidence throughout treatment. Depending on your needs, we offer several temporary options to fill the gap while your implants heal and integrate with the jawbone. These options may include temporary dentures or bridges, which are custom-fitted to look natural and keep you smiling comfortably.

Our team will guide you through the process and help select the best temporary solution, ensuring a smooth and confident transition from your initial procedure to your permanent implant placement.

Dental implant treatment is usually much more comfortable than most patients expect. The implant is placed using local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort, swelling or bruising is normal afterwards, but this is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and settles within a few days.

Most healthy adults who have one or more missing teeth are suitable candidates for dental implants. Healthy gums and sufficient jawbone are important, although some patients may benefit from bone grafting before implant treatment. A consultation and assessment will determine the most suitable treatment for you.

Yes. Dental implants can replace a single missing tooth, several missing teeth or even a complete arch of teeth. Depending on your needs, implants can support individual crowns, bridges or implant-retained dentures.

You should care for dental implants just like natural teeth. Brush twice a day, clean between your teeth or implants daily using the recommended cleaning aids and attend regular dental examinations and hygiene appointments.

Yes, although smoking can increase the risk of implant failure and slow the healing process. If you smoke, your dentist will discuss the potential risks and may recommend reducing or stopping smoking before treatment to improve the chances of long-term success.

Leaving a gap can cause neighbouring teeth to drift, affect your bite and contribute to bone loss in the jaw. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants can help preserve bone, maintain your facial appearance and restore normal function.

Once your implant has fully healed and your final restoration has been fitted, you should be able to enjoy most foods comfortably. Dental implants provide excellent stability and chewing ability compared with removable dentures.

This depends on your oral health and the condition of the extraction site. In some cases, an implant can be placed immediately after a tooth is removed. In others, the area may need several weeks or months to heal first. We’ll assess your individual situation and recommend the best timing.

Although dental implants have a very high success rate, they can occasionally fail due to infection, poor healing, smoking or excessive pressure on the implant. Regular dental check-ups, good oral hygiene and following your dentist’s advice greatly reduce the risk.

Dental implants are designed to look as natural as possible. Your replacement tooth is carefully matched to the colour, shape and size of your surrounding teeth, making it difficult for others to notice the difference.

Both treatments have advantages, but dental implants often provide a more conservative solution because they do not require neighbouring healthy teeth to be prepared. They also help preserve the jawbone by replacing the tooth root.

Many people with well-controlled diabetes are suitable candidates for dental implants. We’ll review your medical history and discuss any factors that could affect healing before recommending treatment.

When a tooth is lost, the surrounding jawbone can gradually shrink because it is no longer stimulated by the tooth root. Dental implants replace the root and help maintain healthy bone levels, supporting your facial structure over time.

Alternatives include dental bridges and removable dentures. The most suitable option depends on your oral health, the number of missing teeth and your personal preferences. We’ll explain the advantages and limitations of each treatment so you can make an informed decision.
