A single dental implant that replaces your missing tooth root-to-crown for a lifetime of natural function.
The gold standard for replacing a single missing tooth — looks, feels, and functions like natural.
Single Tooth Implants at Woodbend Dental
A single dental implant is the most natural and long-lasting way to replace a missing tooth. A titanium post is placed directly into the jawbone, where it fuses over time through a process called osseointegration. A custom crown is then attached on top.
Unlike a bridge, a single implant doesn't require altering the adjacent healthy teeth. It also stimulates the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that naturally occurs after tooth loss.
With proper care, a single implant can last a lifetime — making it the most cost-effective tooth replacement option over the long term.

Assessment & Planning

Implant Placement
The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic.
Healing (Osseointegration)
Over 3–6 months, the implant fuses with the jawbone to create a permanent foundation.
Crown Placement
A custom-matched crown is attached to the implant abutment for a complete restoration.
