Single Tooth Dental Implant
Losing a tooth can make eating uncomfortable, affect your bite, and your confidence. At Harley Private Dental, our single tooth dental implants replace missing teeth with a strong, natural-looking solution that makes your smile look good as new.
What is a Single Tooth Dental Implant?
A single-tooth implant is a permanent way to replace one missing tooth. It uses a small titanium post to act as a new tooth root, topped with a custom-made crown that blends seamlessly with your natural smile.
Unlike bridges or dentures, an implant is fixed directly into the jawbone for long-lasting stability and a completely natural feel.

Mild tenderness is common but easily managed with care. Most patients return to their normal routine within a few days.
Month 2
Healing continues comfortably as your gums strengthen around the implant. Gentle brushing and rinsing are encouraged.
Month 3
Discomfort fades, and the implant begins bonding naturally with your jawbone for lasting stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
01How much does a single tooth implant cost in Sheffield?
At Harley Private Dental, we first assess your oral health and bone structure before confirming a treatment plan. After your consultation, you’ll receive a clear and transparent quote, with no hidden fees.
02Is a single tooth implant better than a dental bridge?
Yes. Unlike a bridge, an implant doesn’t require reshaping your neighbouring teeth. It also helps preserve your jawbone and offers a longer-lasting, more natural-looking solution.
03How long does the procedure take?
From start to finish, the process usually takes around three to six months, including healing time. You’ll leave your first appointment with the implant in place and return once it’s fully integrated for your final crown fitting.
04Does getting a single tooth implant hurt?
Not at all. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you stay comfortable throughout. Mild tenderness afterward is normal and usually fades within a few days.
05How do I care for my implant?
Care for your implant just like a natural tooth. Brush twice daily, floss regularly, and attend routine check-ups to keep your smile healthy and strong.
