A Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth: Dental Implants
At The Riley Dental Studio, dental implants offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, improving both the function and appearance of your smile.
Whether you’re young or not so young, whether you’re missing one tooth, several, or even all your teeth, dental implants can make a dramatic difference in how your mouth feels, looks, and functions.
Dental implants are the most natural solution to tooth loss, providing aesthetic and functional benefits that can significantly enhance your quality of life.
How Dental Implants Can Improve Your Life
In many cases, dental implants can dramatically improve your daily life by:
- Allowing you to bite and chew naturally
- Enabling you to enjoy eating your favourite foods again
- Helping you feel more confident and attractive
- Offering a permanent solution to missing teeth
- Reducing bone loss that typically occurs after tooth extraction
In extreme cases of severe bone loss, tooth loss can contribute to increased facial wrinkling and premature ageing. Dental implants can help prevent these issues, maintaining both your oral health and your facial structure.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are self-supporting, which reduces the burden on your natural teeth. Most importantly, dental implants allow you to enjoy life to the fullest by restoring the full functionality of your teeth.
A dental implant replaces the root of the missing tooth. Once the implant has been placed, a crown, bridge, or denture can be attached. Modern dental implants are made from titanium or titanium alloys, materials that have been extensively proven to integrate well with bone tissue. The use of dental implants has been a highly reliable treatment option for decades, with various implant systems available to suit individual needs.

Why Choose Dental Implants Over Bridges?
Traditionally, when replacing a missing tooth, a cement-retained bridge was the common choice. While bridges successfully replace the crown of the missing tooth, they do not address the root, which can lead to bone loss and an unattractive, dark space at the gumline.
A dental implant, however, is a small titanium screw inserted into the jawbone, usually under local anaesthetic, during a short procedure. It fuses with the bone, forming a strong foundation for new, natural-looking teeth.
A Reliable and Long-Lasting Solution
With dental implants, you can replace one or more missing teeth, secure dentures in place, and enjoy a high success rate of over 96%. This treatment is scientifically proven, with independent research supporting its long-term effectiveness.
Dental implants provide teeth that look and feel completely natural. They allow you to live, laugh, and eat with confidence, transforming your smile and enhancing your quality of life.
