Dental Implants
The gold standard for replacing missing teeth. permanent, natural-looking, and now available at 60% below UK prices.
What is dental implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. A crown is then attached to the implant, creating a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Implants are the most durable tooth replacement option available. when properly cared for, they can last a lifetime. The implant systems used by Elara partner clinics include Nobel Biocare, Straumann, and Osstem. The same systems used by UK implant specialists.

The procedure. what to expect
Day 1 to 2: Consultation, 3D CBCT scan, treatment planning, and implant placement surgery under local anaesthesia. The implant then requires a healing period of 3 to 6 months for osseointegration (fusing with the bone). Return visit: Crown attachment and final restoration. Some patients opt to have the initial surgery abroad and the crown fitting at a UK aftercare dentist. Elara can coordinate both.
Post-treatment care
The healing period after implant placement is the most critical phase. Avoid smoking (it significantly increases failure risk), maintain excellent oral hygiene around the implant site, and follow all post-operative instructions. Your ELARA Treatment Passport records the implant brand and size for any future dentist.

Dental Implants FAQ
Is implant surgery painful?
The surgery is performed under local anaesthesia. You will feel pressure but not pain during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort is typically managed with over-the-counter pain relief for 2 to 3 days.
What if the implant fails?
Implant failure rates with qualified surgeons and quality implant systems are below 2%. If an implant fails, Elara's guarantee covers the cost of the corrective treatment and your return travel to the clinic.
