Dental Implants in Plymouth
Are missing teeth affecting your confidence or making eating your favourite foods difficult?
Dental implants are a permanent, natural-looking replacement for missing teeth. They look and feel like natural teeth, and you can bite, chew, and eat as you normally would.
Dental implants can be life-changing and are one of the most reliable financial investments you can make in your health and appearance.
Our Principal Dentist, Dr Lenore Bronkhorst, is an internationally trained Cosmetic Dentist who has just celebrated 40 years in dentistry.
Dr Bronkhorst has advanced training in placing Dental Implants and can also perform Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts.
From our state-of-the-art clinic near Mutley Plain, we serve patients from across Ocean City, including Plympton, Plymstock, Stoke Village and Derriford, and are conveniently located for those travelling from Saltash, Torpoint and Ivybridge.
Replace your missing teeth with Dental Implants
The gold standard solution for a missing tooth.
Reverse jawbone loss.
Having implants fitted also reverses any jawbone loss that may have occurred, preventing the sunken, hollow, aged appearance that occurs when your teeth are missing.
Dr Bronkhorst has advanced training in dental implants through the Tatum Institute and has completed postgraduate education in Avantgarde Dentistry, allowing for comprehensive, aesthetically driven treatment planning—particularly in complex, multidisciplinary cases.

Implant procedure
When you visit us for an initial dental implant consultation, we’ll discuss your needs and recommend the implant solutions that best suit you.
We will then undertake an oral health assessment. Good oral hygiene and healthy gums give your operation the best chance of success and help avoid dental infections and more severe complications.
If you have any oral health issues, such as tooth decay, gingivitis, or gum disease, our Dental Hygienist will help you address them before the surgery.
Our state-of-the-art scanning machine will take multiple scans and X-rays of your mouth and jaw, producing high-resolution 3D images of your mouth, including teeth, jaws, soft tissue, and bones – all with high levels of detail to enable precision planning to help fit your implant.
On the day of your surgery, we use a simple procedure to place the titanium screw in your jawbone. We’ll then place a temporary crown or bridge to fill the gap while you wait for the implant to heal. If you currently wear dentures, you can continue wearing them.
