--per implant--- A dental implant is a "root" device, usually made of titanium, used in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth to replace missing teeth. The first stage of implantation requires the implantologist to assess factors (eg. bone levels, medical conditions) which will decide whether the patient is a good candidate for implants (assessed with panoramic x-rays).If implants are viable, the implantologist will proceed to insert the implant/s into the jaw/s, suture(stitch) the area/s up and the patient will be re-called for a check-up appointment +- 6 months later. These 6 months are vital because the bone fuses to the implant giving it the best support/strength, the soft tissue (gums) are also healed in the area of implantation and the sutures keep the implants free of bacteria. The next stage is started whereby the patient returns after the +- 6 months and the crown/s (the visible part of the tooth) are prepared which will be constructed at a dental lab by dental technicians. The dentist will place temporary crowns on the implant/s abutments (the extension that protrudes out of the gum where the crowns will be fixed to the implant) so that the patient will have use of that area, the implants will be protected and for aesthetic appeal. The patient will then be re-called and the final permanent crowns will be placed.Please note: if you have many teeth missing in an area, this will normally not require you to have implants for every single tooth. For single or double tooth loss in one area-you will need individual implants but 3 or more in one area will require less implants.

---per unit---    Dental crowns are usually utilised so as to protect teeth from breaking under occlusal/biting forces on teeth that have been root canal treated. In some cases crowns are chosen for aesthetic reasons but in most cases, where aesthetics are considered, veneers will be the better option due to the fact that less tooth preparation is involved and therefore it is less invasive. Crowns can be made of a variety of materials which directly influences pricing. Most common crown types are PFM (porcelain fused to metal), where the metal provides strength and the porcelain, aesthetics. Alloys are also considered and examples are: Chrome/ Cobalt and Gold/ Platinum alloys.
