Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. Each implant consists of a small titanium post, placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Over time, the bone integrates with the implant surface, creating a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. The result is a tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth.
Implants are the only tooth replacement solution that prevents bone loss in the jaw. When a tooth is lost, the surrounding bone begins to resorb. By replacing the root with a dental implant, we stimulate the bone and maintain the natural structure of the face.
Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional bridges or dentures. They help prevent bone loss, maintain facial structure, and support long-term oral function. Unlike bridges, implants do not require healthy neighbouring teeth to be reduced, preserving your natural smile. Implants are stable, discreet, and durable—offering a long-term solution that supports confidence, comfort, and oral health.
With good hygiene and regular maintenance, implants can last for decades, making them a reliable and cost-effective option for many patients.
At Bandlish & Auplish, we carry out the entire implant process under one roof. Following a detailed consultation, we assess your bone health, gum condition, and overall suitability for implants. A cost estimate and treatment plan are then prepared based on your needs.
If you’re ready to proceed, the implant surgery is carried out under local anaesthetic by our in-house implant surgeon. The titanium post is placed into the jaw and left to heal over a period of weeks. Once the implant has successfully integrated with the bone, a custom-made crown is attached by Dr Bobby Bandlish, who has extensive experience in restorative implant dentistry.
The entire process typically takes four to six appointments over two to six months, depending on your case.
Our Harley Street practice offers specialist-led care at every stage of the dental implant journey. With implant surgery performed in-house and crown placement completed by Dr Bobby Bandlish—who holds a Master’s in Restorative Dentistry from the Eastman Dental Hospital—you benefit from seamless treatment in one location.
We use Neoss System Implants, made from high-grade medical titanium and designed to promote rapid healing and secure integration with the jawbone. Every implant is placed with precision and restored with aesthetics, longevity and function in mind.
You’ll be supported throughout the process by a team with deep expertise in implantology and restorative dentistry, ensuring results that are both clinically sound and visually natural.
Yes, dental implants are generally safe when performed by qualified professionals. Complications are uncommon, and modern techniques make infections or implant failure rare. Proper planning and oral hygiene further reduce risks.
Most patients experience only mild discomfort during and after the procedure. Local anaesthesia is used during placement, and any post-procedure pain can typically be managed with over-the-counter medicines. Swelling or tenderness may occur, but usually subsides within a few days.
Dental implants are small titanium posts placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone over time. Once healed, they serve as a stable foundation for replacement teeth, allowing them to function like your original teeth for biting, chewing, and speaking.
With proper care, dental implants can last for decades. They are made from durable materials and resist the wear associated with traditional prosthetics. Good oral hygiene and routine check-ups help maximise their lifespan.
Neoss System Implants are made using high-grade titanium and advanced surface treatments to support bone integration and healing. Manufactured to strict quality standards, they provide a reliable and effective foundation for long-term success.
Dental implants can replace one tooth, several teeth, or a full arch. They are suitable whether teeth were lost due to trauma, gum disease, or decay. Implants may also support bridges or dentures for greater stability.
Implants preserve bone and protect the natural shape of the face. They do not require reduction of adjacent teeth, unlike bridges, and offer better stability and longevity than removable dentures.
Healing typically takes 3–6 months for the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone. Recovery time can vary depending on overall health, bone quality, and oral care habits during the healing process.
Soft foods are recommended for the first few days. Most people can gradually return to their regular eating habits within a few weeks, depending on healing progress and comfort.
Common side effects include temporary swelling, minor bruising, and mild discomfort. Rarely, infection or implant loosening can occur, but these are usually managed quickly with proper care.
