We assess jaw health, gum condition, and medical history during consultation to ensure suitability—most healthy adults qualify. Risks like infection are minimal with our sterile protocols. Not ideal for uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smokers, but alternatives exist.

With proper care, dental implants last a lifetime—the titanium post rarely fails, while crowns may need replacement after 10-15 years. Regular brushing, flossing, and 6-month check-ups maintain success. They outperform bridges (5-10 years) by preserving jawbone. Our Victoria, London patients enjoy durable, natural function for decades.
