Make EnquiryMissing teeth can affect your confidence, ability to eat, and long-term oral health. Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement, offering a natural-looking, durable, and permanent solution.
A Long-Lasting Solution – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
Improved Function – Eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Subtle Appearance – Designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
Prevents Bone Loss – Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing deterioration.
No Impact on Other Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants do not rely on surrounding teeth for support.
In some cases, tooth extractions require a specialist approach, particularly for impacted, broken, or severely decayed teeth. Our team provides gentle, expert care for all types of extractions, including wisdom tooth removal and surgical extractions.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth – If wisdom teeth don’t have enough space to erupt properly, they can cause pain and infections.
Severely Damaged or Broken Teeth – If a tooth is beyond repair, surgical extraction may be required.
Infection or Advanced Decay – In cases where a root canal isn’t an option, removal may be necessary to prevent further complications.
If sedation is involved, arrange transport home and follow any fasting requirements.

While dental implants have a high success rate, failure can occur in some cases. Factors such as poor oral hygiene, smoking, or insufficient bone support can increase the risk. At Glandwr Dental Practice, our team carefully assesses each patient to maximise success and provides guidance to protect your investment.
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as a stable foundation for a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture. It acts like the root of a natural tooth, providing strong support and helping maintain the structure of your jaw. At Glandwr Dental Practice, we carefully plan and place implants to ensure they integrate effectively and support your oral health.
Yes, dental implants are a safe and well-established treatment for replacing missing teeth. At Glandwr Dental, we use high-quality materials and modern techniques to ensure long-term success and stability. Whether you visit us in Penrhyndeudraeth or Pwllheli, our experienced team of dentists follows strict clinical protocols. If you’re considering implants, we can discuss how they fit within your dental plan and provide clarity on the dental plan cost before treatment begins.
Most people are suitable for implants, but good oral health and sufficient bone density are required. If you’ve had missing teeth for a long time or suffer from bone loss, bone grafting may be needed before implant placement.
With proper care, including good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, dental implants can last many years, often decades. Factors like overall health, lifestyle, and oral care routines can influence longevity. At Glandwr Dental Practice, we provide guidance on maintaining your implants so they remain a reliable part of your smile for the long term.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during the surgery. Some mild discomfort may be present during healing, but this is manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
Most patients recover within a few days to a week, depending on the complexity of the extraction. We provide detailed aftercare to support your healing
Recovery time after dental implant surgery can vary depending on the individual and the complexity of the procedure. Typically, patients return to their usual routine within a few days, with complete healing taking several months as the implant fuses with the bone. At Glandwr Dental, we provide detailed aftercare guidance and follow-up appointments to ensure your recovery progresses smoothly.
Dental implants require regular care similar to natural teeth. This includes daily brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups. At Glandwr Dental, whether you visit our Pwllheli or Penrhyndeudraeth practices, we emphasise the importance of maintaining your oral hygiene to protect your investment and overall oral health.
