Implants
Dental implants
A titanium root and a custom ceramic crown that replace a single missing tooth so completely that it looks, feels and works like your own.
What it is
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jaw to act as a tooth root. Once it has fused with the bone, a custom crown is fitted on top. Unlike a bridge, an implant does not rely on — or damage — the neighbouring teeth, and it helps preserve the jawbone that shrinks when a tooth is lost.
How we plan it
Every implant at Enara is planned digitally by Dr. Danish Farhan, a registered prosthodontist. We take a low-dose 3D (CBCT) scan, design the final crown first, then position the implant to fit that design using a surgical guide. Designing the tooth before placing the implant is what produces a result that looks like it grew there.
The stages
- Assessment & 3D scan — we confirm there is enough bone, or plan grafting if not.
- Placement — the implant is placed under local anaesthetic; most patients are surprised how routine it feels.
- Healing — 3–4 months for the implant to integrate, usually with a temporary in place.
- The crown — a custom ceramic crown is scanned, made and fitted.
Longevity
Implants have among the highest long-term success rates in dentistry — well over 95% at ten years in healthy patients. The implant itself can last decades; the crown may need renewing after 10–15 years. Not smoking and keeping up hygiene visits materially improves the odds.
Common questions
Does getting an implant hurt?
Placement is done under local anaesthetic and most patients report it is easier than a difficult extraction. Mild soreness for a few days afterwards is managed with ordinary painkillers.
Am I too old for an implant?
Age itself is rarely a barrier — health and bone matter more than birthdays. We assess both at your consultation.
