Dental Implants

Dental implants are used to help replace missing teeth. Individual implants can be used to replace an individual tooth or a number of implants can be used to replace multiple teeth or indeed all of your teeth.

A dental implant is a titanium screw that can be inserted into the bone of either your top or bottom jaw. Titanium is a very well tolerated metal that will eventually integrate with your natural bone. This is the same metal that is used in artificial joints and in repairing broken bones.

The implant itself can then be used as a foundation to replace missing teeth.

Oral Pathology Management

The surgical speciality of Oral & Maxillofacial surgery bridges the gap between medicine and dentistry, placing Maxillofacial surgeons at the forefront to manage lesions of the oral cavity.

This may include lesions of the oral mucosa, palate, gums and tongue as well as lesions that arise within the jaw bones. Fortunately the majority of the pathology that we see is benign in nature however bony pathology may often require some sort of reconstruction to facilitate full dental rehabilitation. This may involve bone grafting and dental implant provision.
