Feel more confident again with same‑day dental implants

SUITABLE FOR:

  • One or more missing teeth you want to replace permanently​
  • Loose or uncomfortable dentures that move when you talk or eat
  • Heavily damaged teeth where a tooth crown or bridge is no longer enough
  • People considering full mouth dental implants instead of removable dentures
  • Adults looking for a long‑term alternative to partial dentures or gaps in their smile

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, which then support a crown, bridge or denture that looks and functions like a natural tooth. Once healed, an implant can help you bite, chew and speak more comfortably, and it also helps reduce bone loss in the jaw compared with leaving a gap or relying only on removable dentures.​

At Thames Dental & Skin in Thames Ditton we plan each implant carefully using digital scans and X‑rays, whether you need a single implant, an implant‑supported bridge, full mouth dental implants or support for your existing denture. Where needed we can also discuss dental bone graft procedures or other preparatory treatments to improve the long‑term success of your implants.​

Our process for
dental implants

Initial Consultation

We examine your teeth and gums, take digital scans and X‑rays, and discuss your goals, including options such as single implants, screwless dental implants, implant‑supported bridges or full‑arch solutions.​

Implant Placement

Your implant is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic, with additional comfort options if you feel nervous; most patients describe this as easier than having a tooth removed.​

Final Restoration

Over the following weeks or months, the implant integrates with the bone; where appropriate we can provide a temporary tooth or adapt your denture so you are not left with visible gaps during healing.​

Aftercare

Once the implant is stable, we attach a custom crown, bridge or full‑arch restoration matched to your bite and smile, then arrange regular reviews and hygiene support to help your implants last for many years.​

I wanted to take a moment to express not only my gratitude as a long-time patient of Dr. Theodora Bravis at Thames Dental Care but also to share the collective excitement and satisfaction of my entire family.

From the very first visit to the most recent appointments, Dr. Bravis has consistently delivered unparalleled dental care that has not only kept me coming back but has also garnered the trust and admiration of my whole family. As a long-time patient since the opening of her clinic, I've had the privilege of witnessing the growth of Thames Dental Care into a premier dental practice, and Dr. Bravis's commitment to excellence has never wavered.

What truly sets Dr. Bravis apart is her ability to extend her personalized care to each member of my family. Her warmth and genuine concern for our well-being have made dental visits not just routine appointments but positive experiences that we look forward to. Dr. Bravis has successfully created an environment where even the youngest members of my family feel at ease and excited about maintaining their oral health.

The state-of-the-art facilities and the friendly, professional staff - Andrea, Tina and others, contribute to the overall positive atmosphere that has impressed not just me but my whole family. The collective sentiment is one of gratitude for having found a dental home where expertise, compassion, and a family-friendly approach are seamlessly integrated.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Theodora Bravis and Thames Dental Care to individuals and families alike. Thank you, Dr. Bravis, for consistently exceeding our expectations and for being the cornerstone of our family's dental health journey!

The best dental practice ever! And I speak with many decades of experience of less talented dentists. Dr Bravis is not only very skilled and well qualified, she is also gentle and engaging and never hurts and so I no longer dread visits to the dentist and am prepared to travel from central London. I’ve had two dental implants and my front teeth built up recently and all went very well. Andrea, the dental nurse, was very kind and reassuring when my jaw was being drilled and Tina on reception is very helpful and knowledgeable. I can highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed.

The whole team has been so friendly and approachable at every appointment and quick to respond to my queries. Dr Bravis has done a super job for me with my Invisalign treatment. She has always been honest about saying when I don’t need work done too which I feel is not always what happens in some private sectors. I value and trust her opinions.

I can’t recommend this dental practice highly enough. Dr Bravis and her team are ultra professional, polite and have immense knowledge of their profession. I have had a lot of dental problems over the years and I am delighted to say that I have finally achieved stability after having broken, painful teeth for so many years. Thank you for giving me my confidence back!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why consider having dental implants?

Dental implants offer a fixed, long‑term solution for missing teeth, restoring function and appearance without relying on removable dentures. They help preserve the jawbone, support facial structure and can make eating and speaking feel much closer to having natural teeth again. 

What should I expect during the dental implant process?

The dental implant process usually includes an initial consultation and scans, surgical placement of the implant, a healing phase and then fitting of the final crown, bridge or denture. Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, and most patients are surprised how little discomfort they feel during and after the procedure.​ 

How long do dental implants last?

With good oral hygiene, regular dentist and hygienist visits and avoidance of habits such as smoking, many implants can last 15–25 years or longer. We will show you how best to clean around your implants and when to book reviews to keep them healthy over the long term.​ 

How much do dental implants cost?

Dental implant cost varies depending on how many teeth we are replacing, whether bone grafting or sinus lift procedures are needed, and the type of crown or bridge used. At your consultation we will provide a clear written estimate and outline finance options if you wish to spread payments over time.​ 

Are dental implants always better than bridges or dentures?

Dental implants are often the most stable and long‑lasting option, especially when nearby teeth are healthy and you would prefer not to file them down for a bridge. In some situations a high‑quality bridge, denture or porcelain veneers may still be recommended, and we will always explain the pros and cons so you can choose the option that best suits your mouth and budget.​ 

What if I have been told I do not have enough bone for implants?

A lack of bone does not always rule out implants; in many cases we can use different implant sizes or angles, or consider dental bone graft procedures to build up support before placement. We will take detailed scans to assess bone levels and talk you through the safest options in your case.​ 

Do you offer dental implants near Kingston, Esher, Surbiton and Walton‑on‑Thames?

Yes. We regularly see patients for dental implants in Thames Ditton who travel from Kingston, Esher, Surbiton, Walton‑on‑Thames, Molesey, Hinchley Wood and across Surrey. Many people choose us because they want specialist‑led dental implants in Surrey without travelling into central London.​
