dental implants
Dental implants look, feel and function like natural teeth. They can give you a real boost in both your private and professional life, allowing you to eat, speak and smile with confidence. The permanent natural replacement for missing teeth or dentures, a dental implant is a small man-made titanium screw that serves as the replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth. The implant is placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw and when bonded with the bone, serves as an anchor for the replacement tooth. Dental implants can be used to replace a single lost tooth or many missing teeth. At PDC Dental we use the world’s leading implants by 'Nobel Biocare', the results being proven and astonishing.
PDC Penistone is an approved Same Day Smiles™ centre offering patients with dentures or failing teeth the opportunity to be given a new smile within a single day. The revolutionary All-on-4 treatment provides you with a permanent solution and can restore the self confidence which is often lost due to the less satisfactory alternatives.
