IMPLANTS – CREATING NATURAL-LOOKING SMILES
Dr Gurs Sehmi has a wealth of experience in placing dental implants and has successfully transformed the smiles of many of our patients.
“Missing teeth can be embarrassing and make us appear older than we are. Dental implants are now widely considered the gold standard when it comes to replacing missing teeth. They are permanent standalone replacements and avoid the raft of problems that comes with wearing removable dentures, such as moving when you eat or dropping down when you’re talking.”
“They function like natural teeth and can be customised to blend in with the shape of your teeth – we can even recreate the individual character of your smile by layering colours to mimic your natural teeth.”
PAIN-FREE DENTAL IMPLANTS
Once you have your dental implants fitted – it’s a pain-free procedure, by the way – it is essential to visit our hygiene team regularly, which will help you maintain a healthy mouth.
Dr Sehmi explains: “A dental implant is just like a brand new car – an investment that requires ongoing maintenance, which is why we like to keep a regular eye on your cosmetic dental work. Problems happen, and it is far easier to fix them if caught early.”
If you are looking for a long-lasting and pain-free solution for missing teeth, please call us on 01992 351989 to arrange a consultation, where we can discuss a treatment plan and available payment options.
Simple Dental Finance Plans
- We can help establish monthly payment plans.
- We provide 0% finance for up to 24-month term plans. Many patients find our payment plan option very useful.
- Terms over 24 months will be low-interest bearing.
- If you want to consider this option, we will need to carry out a few credit checks.
- We can discuss payment plans at both the Hertfordshire & the London clinic
At The Perfect Smile, we understand that patients may be naturally nervous when thinking of undergoing dental implant surgery.
We want to reassure you that the dental implant treatment is not painful due to the proper use of local anaesthetics to numb the bone and gum deeply.
We can also use sedation techniques that also contribute to no pain or discomfort. More.
Single Dental Implant Timeline
- Step 1: We will start the process with a highly detailed and thorough comprehensive examination and assessment. We will then construct a customised treatment plan and design your implant treatment.
- Step 2: An implantologist surgically places your new implant(s) in your mouth.
- Step 3: We will assess your healing on this review appointment and make sure everything is going as planned.
- Step 4: The dentist records and impressions to construct the implant’s top part (post and crown).
- Step 5: The dentist will fit the final part of the implant (post and crown).
- Step 6: Your final appointment allows you to have any further refining cosmetic enhancements or minor adjustments.
Insufficient Bone
- When you lose a tooth, the surrounding bone that holds the tooth in place will diminish in height, width, and volume. This may affect the immediate and final appearance of the gum tissue in this area and possibly the surrounding teeth.
- The larger the width of bone or the height of the bone, the wider and longer implant can be. A wider and longer implant increases implant stability and thus success. We assess the bone height and width by taking digital radiographs or by taking a CT Scan. More.
Competitive Costs
The price of a dental implant can depend on whether any further treatments are needed to make sure your implant is a success.

Minimal pain
Is the process painful?
You can expect to feel some pain when having a new implant; however, the discomfort is kept to a minimum with modern anaesthetics. Nevertheless, post-process, there can be some swelling and aching for 5 -10 days.
Many patients have multiple implants in a single day without undue pain or distress. More.
Natural-looking
Will my implants match the colour of my existing teeth?
Implants are colour matched and then shaped to blend in with your existing teeth. To the naked eye, an implant is very hard to spot.
