A missing tooth affects much more than appearance — it changes the way you chew, can cause neighbouring teeth to drift and may lead to bone loss over time. A dental implant is a small, biocompatible titanium post placed in the jawbone that acts as an artificial root, on which a natural-looking crown, bridge or denture is fixed.
Alongside his orthodontic specialisation, Prof. (Dr) Sanjay Labh is an experienced implantologist. This combination is valuable for patients who need both tooth alignment and replacement of missing teeth, because the orthodontic movement and the implant position can be planned together for the best functional and aesthetic result.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Look, feel and function like natural teeth
- Do not require cutting down the adjacent healthy teeth (unlike a conventional bridge)
- Help preserve jawbone and facial contour
- Long-lasting, with proper home care and regular check-ups
Treatment Options
- Single-tooth implants
- Implant-supported bridges for multiple missing teeth
- Implant-retained dentures for improved stability
- Implant planning combined with orthodontic space management
