Dental Implants Bournemouth

Dental implants at 740 Dental are carried out under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Most patients are surprised by how straightforward the process feels and often describe it as easier than having a tooth removed. For more complex treatments or full mouth cases, sedation is available with a consultant anaesthetist. After treatment, any mild discomfort is usually manageable with standard pain relief and settles quickly. Our use of digital planning and fully guided surgery also helps reduce trauma to the surrounding tissues, supporting faster healing and a smoother experience overall.

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium implant integrates with your jawbone, creating a strong and stable foundation that does not decay. At 740 Dental, every implant is carefully planned using 3D scans and digital workflows to ensure precise placement, which plays a key role in long-term success. Looking after your gums, attending hygiene visits, and following aftercare advice will all help protect your investment and keep your implant healthy for the long term.

Most adults with missing teeth are suitable for dental implants. At your free consultation, we use 3D CBCT scans and digital scans to assess your bone levels, gum health, and overall oral condition. Even if you have been told in the past that you are not suitable, modern techniques and digital planning mean that many patients can now be treated successfully. James Coupe has been placing implants for over twenty years and will create a personalised treatment plan based on your specific needs.

Yes, in many cases same day dental implants are possible at 740 Dental. This is especially helpful when replacing a front tooth or when carrying out full mouth treatments. Using digital planning and guided surgery, we can often place the implant and fit a provisional tooth on the same day, so you are never left without a smile. These initial teeth provide immediate function and appearance, with your final custom restorations fitted once healing is complete.

Most patients can expect the full dental implant process to take around three to four months from consultation to final restoration. After your free consultation and 3D scans, your implant is placed using fully guided surgery for accuracy and safety. The implant then needs time to integrate with the jawbone, usually around three to four months. Once healed, your final custom made crown, bridge, or full arch restoration is fitted. In some cases, such as same day implants, you can leave with a provisional tooth on the day of surgery, so you are never without a smile.

Our dental implant packages at 740 Dental start from £3,700, which includes everything you need for a complete, stress-free treatment journey. This all-inclusive price covers your free initial consultation, free 3D CBCT and digital scans, a full treatment plan report, fully guided surgery using 3D printed guides, a custom-made crown, and digital bite pressure mapping.

We also offer flexible finance options, so you can spread the cost of your treatment into manageable monthly payments. To find out exactly what your treatment would cost and whether finance is right for you, book a free consultation with Dr James Coupe.

Leaving a gap where a tooth is missing can have a significant impact on both your oral health and appearance. Without a tooth root to stimulate the jawbone, bone loss begins in that area, which can cause neighbouring teeth to shift and your facial structure to change over time. Missing teeth can also affect your bite, making eating and speaking more difficult. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that replaces the root as well as the crown, preventing bone loss and maintaining your facial structure long term.

Yes, once your dental implants have fully healed you can eat virtually anything you could with natural teeth. In the initial healing period after surgery, we recommend softer foods to allow the implant to integrate comfortably with the jawbone. As healing progresses, you can gradually reintroduce your normal diet. Once your final crown or restoration is fitted, dental implants function just like natural teeth, so you can enjoy all your favourite foods without restriction, discomfort or worry about anything slipping or moving.

Most patients recover comfortably within a few days of dental implant surgery. Some mild swelling, bruising or tenderness around the treatment area is normal in the first 48 to 72 hours and is easily managed with standard over the counter pain relief. Most patients return to normal daily activities within a day or two. At 740 Dental, our use of digital planning and fully guided surgery helps minimise trauma to the surrounding tissue, which supports faster healing and a smoother recovery overall. Full integration of the implant with the jawbone takes around three to four months, after which your final restoration is fitted.
