Dental Implants provide a long lasting and aesthetic solution for the problem of missing or broken down teeth.
There are well over 100 different implant systems currently in use around the world. Only a handful of these implant systems have any substantial evidence in the dental research literature to back their use, and even fewer implant systems have any substantial long-term follow up evidence to support their use on patients.

In our practice, we have selected the most modern, top of the range dental Implants from Straumann, Nobel Biocare and Camlog. These implant systems are all world class dental implant companies which have been established for many years.
There are many alternative cheaper type of implants available in the market but as we do not have the much needed scientific and clinical support to back their performance, at Pearl Dental Clinic we do not think is justifiable to provide them to our patients no matter what the financial benefits can be to both to the patients and the dentists.
Also by using dental implants from one of the major implant companies, we ensure that in years to come if the patient's implant needs a new screw or an abutment, the company is likely to be still in business to supply the parts needed for maintenance.
Straumann, Nobel Biocare and Camlog implant companies have decades of clinical research behind their implant systems, which has resulted in numerous independent scientific studies being published on them. With such extensive research, we believe that these implant systems, are the most thoroughly documented, clinically validated, peer reviewed and research proven implant systems on the market today.
The Camlog implant system is a reliable prosthesis oriented implant system and similar to the other types, is continually updated to the latest technological standards. This has ensured the development of an implant system with optimal implant surface, primary stability and numerous convincing long term studies.
Nobel Biocare implants offer the solutions for all indications, from a single-tooth to fully edentulous restorations (all on six), offering one of the best quality and aesthetic results. Nobel Biocare implants have probably the widest range of suprastructures available to dentists which makes them the most suitable implant system for replacing multiple missing teeth.
Manufactured from pure titanium, Straumann SLActive implants feature optimal surface topography for bone cells to attach themselves, allowing osseointegration to occur in as little time as six weeks. This allows the Straumann SLActive Implant to be loaded with a crown and be placed into occlusion much faster than other Implants that require a healing time of up to
six months.
Straumann SLActive implants have been specially developed to optimize implant stability and reduce the risk of failure. The latest research findings substantially support the fact that, with over 90,000 implants used worldwide Straumann SLActive implants deliver an extremely low failure rate of less than 1%.
Straumann Roxolid dental Implants are the new generation of small width but full length implants which have been designed for situations where there is limited space between teeth or situations where the bone available is thin, requiring a smaller width implant.
Straumann Roxolid™ Implants are made from an alloy of titanium (80%) and zirconium (20%) which means that Roxolid™ has a higher fatigue and tensile strength than pure titanium dental implants of the same width. In addition studies have shown that bone integrates with Roxolid implants better than with pure titanium implants.
We do not use any mini (4 - 5 mm) length Implants as these cheap implants have a much higher failure rate under loading compared to full sized Dental Implants. We only use regular length implants that range between 8 and 14mm in length.
Many dentists use mini implants only as a temporary solution or use them as a temporary measure for orthodontic anchorage. Please follow the link here to see research on why we do not use Mini Implants.
For a better functional and cosmetic dental implant outcome, where needed we always carry out bone grafting. We can use the patient's own bone, irradiated cadaver bone, synthetic bone or bovine derived bone. If bone grafting is not carried out in cases where it is necessary, it can lead to serious problems for the patient.
Below you can see the case of a lady who presented to us with implants placed in the smile zone that should have had bone grafting but the implants were placed without bone grafting. As a result the implant threads are exposed and her implant crowns are very long.
To hide this, she has to permanently wear a removable plastic gum mask to cover the unsightly implant threads and the very long implant crowns.

We try to avoid this disastrous outcome, by always doing bone grafting around implants that need bone grafting even if that delays treatment for a little while. Our aim is to achieve the best long term outcome and not to rush to complete as many cases as possible.

Our German trained Oral Surgeon Dr. Dejan Dragisic is highly experienced in Implantology having successfully placed over 2,000 dental Implants. He is on the General Dental Councils list as a specialist in Oral Surgery. Dejan is a perfectionist and has spend almost all of his time over the past 10 years, placing or restoring dental implants. He has an implant success rate of more than 99%.
We are one of a few practices in the UK to have an in-house Sirona XG plus Digital Panoramic Scanner with Digital Transverse Slice Acquisition (TSA). This state of the art high tech machine allows us to obtain very accurate high definition cross-sectional images of the Implant area. This results in much more accurate treatment planning and very precise Implant placement.
All of our Implant treatments are provided in one London location from start to finish. Our practice is open 7 days a week and we always have an emergency dentist on-call 24 hours of the day, ensuring that we provide you with complete Implant after-care 24 hours of the day.
For Optimum Implant integration, it's very important that Implant treatment is carried out under very strictly sterile, theatre like conditions. This is to reduce the chance of an infection taking place. For this reason we use the most modern sterilization equipment normally found in surgical theatres and employ highly trained Implant nurses and use fully sterile disposable surgical gowns to ensure the most sterile surgical conditions.
We would never use cheap non-sterile surgical gowns for our patients or for ourselves during implant surgery.
All of the implant systems that we use, supply their implants sterile packaged from the manufacturer with an expiry date in a sterile box. We never ever buy cheap implants from implant manufacturers that supply non-sterile implants in bags and have no expiry date on their implants.
Following these strict cross infection protocols at all times has ensured that to date, we have had no post implant surgery episodes of infection despite carrying out hundreds of implant surgical procedures over the years.
For good bone cooling during implant surgery, we only use specialist Implant surgical hand pieces that provide saline cooling of the surgical site and never use the cheaper dental chair hand pieces that do not have saline cooling. This prevents the risk of bone cells dying due to overheating during implant placement.
To ensure that we always have the right dental implant for our patients, we always keep a very large stock of dental implants onsite. This financial outlay of thousands of pounds by us, ensures that when it comes to your implant placement on any particular day, we will always have the right size dental implant for any clinical situation that can arise and never need to compromise by placing the wrong sized implant.
For those patients that suffer from dental anxiety, we offer multiple drug Specialist Anaesthetist Deep Sedation to help patients feel more relaxed during Implant treatment in a safe environment. Also, by using the WAND™ computerized painless injection system we eliminate the dreaded injection pain and make your implant experience a much more pleasant one.
We will always provide you with a full written treatment plan so that you are fully aware of the costs involved. We have published all of our fees on our web site, so that there are no hidden costs.
We provide 0% Finance on all implant treatments allowing you to spread the cost of treatment over a period that suits you.
For your peace of mind, all of our dental implant treatments are covered by our 12 months guarantee. For a small additional fee, you can extend your implant warrantee with a reputable insurance provider. If you follow our implant maintenance advice, your new dental implant should last for many years.

FAQ's about Dental Implants in Kingston, South West London, SW15
Q What are dental implants?
A A dental implant is a titanium metal rod which is placed into the jawbone. It is used to support one or more false teeth. In practice, both the false teeth and their supporting rod are known as ‘implants’.
Q Are implants safe? How long will they last?
A Implants are a well-established, tried-and-tested treatment. 90 per cent of modern implants last for at least 15 years.
Q I have some of my own teeth. Can I still have implants?
A Yes. You can have any number of teeth replaced with implants – from one single tooth to a complete set.
Q Can implants always be used to replace missing teeth?
A It depends on the state of the bone in your jaw. Your dentist will arrange for a number of special tests to assess the amount of bone still there. If there is not enough, or if it isn’t healthy enough, it may not be possible to place implants without grafting bone into the area first.
Q Do implants hurt?
A Placing the implants requires a small operation. This can be carried out under local anaesthetic with sedation or with a general anaesthetic. You will not feel any pain at the time, but you may feel some discomfort during the week following the surgery. This is usually due to having stitches in place, and the normal healing process.
Q Can I have the new teeth straight away?
A No. The implants need to bond (integrate) with the bone after they have been placed. This takes at least 3 months in the lower jaw and 6 months in the upper jaw. If you are having one, two or three teeth replaced, you will have a temporary restoration in the meantime. If you have complete dentures, then you can wear them throughout the healing period once they have been adjusted after the surgery.
Q How long does treatment take?
A It takes about 12 months from the initial assessment to the time when the artificial teeth or dentures are finally attached to the implants. However, if only the lower jaw is involved then it may only take around 5 months. A lot depends on how complicated your treatment is. Your dentist will be able to give you a timetable once the surgery has been done.
Q Are the teeth difficult to clean?
A Cleaning around the teeth attached to the implants is no more difficult than cleaning natural teeth. However, there may be areas that give you problems and you’ll be shown methods to help.
Q If I had gum disease when I had my own teeth, will I get it with the teeth attached to the implants?
A Yes, if you don’t care for them well enough. If you keep them clean, and don’t smoke, then you should not have any problems.
Q Can I take the teeth out if they are fixed to implants?
A Most artificial teeth attached to implants can only be placed and removed by the dentist. However, if you have complete dentures fixed to the implants by bars, then you’ll be able to take them out for cleaning.
Q Do the implants show?
A Your dentist will make sure that the implants won’t show during all normal movements of the mouth and lips. You will need to be able to see them, so that you can clean them properly.
Q Do I have an implant for each missing tooth?
A No, unless you’re only having a single tooth replaced. Normally, five or six implants are used to replace all the teeth in one jaw, as each implant can usually support two teeth. For a few missing teeth, two or three implants may be used.
Q What if I get hit in the face?
A Implants and the teeth they support can be damaged by an accident in the same way that natural teeth can. However, if the false teeth are damaged and the remnants are left in the bone then they may be more difficult to remove than natural teeth would be. After healing, new false teeth can then be placed alongside the fragments.
Q What happens if the implant does not bond (integrate) with the bone?
A This happens very rarely. If the implant becomes loose during the healing period or just after, then it is easily removed and healing takes place in the normal way. Once the jaw has healed, another implant can be placed there. Or, the dentist can make a bridge, using the implanted false teeth that have ‘taken’.
Q Is the treatment expensive?
A Unfortunately, yes. However, in many situations, the cost of the treatment is only a little more than the cost of more conventional treatment with crowns and bridges. There are advantages to it, too. An implant to replace a single tooth avoids the need to cut down the teeth either side for crowns to support a bridge. Normal dentures often mean you can’t eat or speak well, due to the dentures moving about. But teeth attached to an implant don’t cause this problem.
Q Where do I get this treatment?
A Talk to your dentist, so you can be referred to a specialist for assessment and treatment. Your dentist may already carry out some or all of this type of treatment and will give you the advice you need.
