Dental implants at M Dental Greenwich
Losing a tooth affects far more than your smile — it changes how you eat, speak and feel about yourself. At M Dental Greenwich on Harrison Walk, our team places dental implants that look, feel and function like natural teeth, so you can bite into whatever you like without a second thought. Treatment is led by principal dentist Dr Tim Meskhi (GDC 151044), who combines careful planning with modern imaging to make sure every implant is positioned precisely and safely.
Our SE10 practice is a short walk from Island Gardens DLR and only minutes from Cutty Sark DLR and Greenwich town centre, so we are an easy choice for patients across Blackheath, Deptford, Maze Hill, New Cross and North Greenwich. We use digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to map your jaw in detail, and we will always try to find a time that suits you when weekdays are tricky. Whether you are replacing one tooth or several, you will be looked after by a team that explains every step clearly.
Understanding your dental implant options
A dental implant is a small, biocompatible titanium post that acts as an artificial tooth root. Once it has fused with your jawbone, we attach a custom-made tooth on top. Because the implant is anchored in bone, your new tooth stands on its own without relying on the neighbouring teeth for support. Depending on how many teeth you are missing, we may recommend one of the following:
- A single implant with a crown to replace one lost tooth in a completely self-supporting way.
- An implant-supported bridge to restore several teeth in a row using just a couple of implants.
- Implant-retained dentures that clip firmly into place for patients missing most or all of their teeth.
We use trusted implant systems and craft your final restoration in tooth-coloured materials that blend seamlessly with your smile. Our digital scans let us rehearse the position of each implant before treatment even begins, which makes the day itself smoother and more predictable.
Is a dental implant right for you?
Most healthy adults with a fully developed jaw are suitable for implants. They are an excellent option if you want a fixed, durable replacement that does not involve cutting down healthy teeth, as a conventional bridge would, and they also help preserve the jawbone, which tends to shrink where a tooth has been lost. Good general and gum health matter, so we always assess your gums and bone level first.
If some bone has been lost, a small graft may be recommended before placement. Smokers and people managing certain medical conditions can still be candidates, though we will talk honestly about anything that could affect healing. Should an implant not be the ideal choice for you right now, we will happily discuss alternatives such as a bridge or a denture so you can decide with all the facts in front of you.
What to expect at our Greenwich clinic
Your journey begins with a consultation and detailed scans so we can plan your treatment precisely. On the day of placement, we numb the area thoroughly with local anaesthetic and gently position the implant — most patients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and quick this feels. Any mild soreness afterwards usually settles within a few days and is easily eased with ordinary painkillers.
The implant then needs time to integrate with your bone, typically over a few months, and a temporary tooth can be provided in the meantime where appearance matters. Once healing is complete, we take a final scan and fit your permanent crown, bridge or denture. Treatment usually spans a handful of visits across several months. Looking after your implant afterwards is simple: brush and floss as normal, keep up with your hygienist visits, and it can serve you well for many years.
Dental implant prices in Greenwich & spreading the cost
Dental implants at M Dental Greenwich start from £1,205 for the implant, or £2,595 for a complete implant with crown. Your personalised quote depends on how many implants you need and whether any preparatory work, such as a bone graft, is required, so we always give you a clear, itemised plan before you commit — no surprises. That price reflects the surgical placement and the attentive aftercare our team provides throughout.
Because a full restoration is a meaningful decision, we offer 0% finance to help you spread the cost into comfortable monthly payments. Ask our reception team on 0204 541 8517 and we will walk you through the options available to you.
