A single dental implant at GL1 Dental in Gloucester is about as close as modern dentistry comes to recreating a natural tooth. We place a small titanium root into your jaw, allow it to heal, then attach a crown that looks and feels like the tooth you lost — leaving the healthy teeth on either side completely untouched.

A traditional bridge requires the two healthy teeth flanking the gap to be filed down to anchor the new crown. An implant sidesteps all of that, standing independently with nothing else needing to be altered. The neighbouring teeth stay exactly as they were, cleaning around the new tooth is as simple as flossing a normal one, and the implant helps guard against the bone loss that often follows losing a tooth.

A free consultation together with a 3D CT scan, so we can check your bone levels and plan precisely where the implant should sit.
We place the implant under local anaesthetic — around 60 minutes.
A review at 2 weeks to confirm healing is on track.
After 3–6 months of healing, we take impressions and fit your permanent crown.

A single implant with crown starts from £2,500, covering the CT scan, the implant, the healing cap and the finished crown — with the exact figure confirmed in writing before anything is agreed.
Allow 3–6 months from placing the implant to fitting the final crown. Most of that time is quiet bone healing beneath the surface — your actual chairside time amounts to just two short appointments.
No — that's one of the biggest advantages implants have over bridges — the teeth either side of the gap are left completely alone.
For most people, yes. Anyone who finds a partial denture uncomfortable usually welcomes a fixed, permanent implant as the alternative.
