Dental Implants in Cleckheaton
Losing a tooth, whether through injury, decay, or gum disease can impact more than just your smile. It can affect how you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. At Greenside Dental Care, we offer dental implants to restore both function and confidence.
A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. Once placed in your jawbone, it integrates with the bone to provide a secure foundation for a custom-made crown.
- Looks and feels like a natural tooth
- Preserves jawbone density and facial structure
- Restores full function—chew, speak, and smile with confidence
- A long-term solution with proper care
- ConsultationWe’ll examine your teeth, take digital scans and X-rays, and discuss your options.
- Implant PlacementA titanium implant is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic. Healing time varies, but it typically takes a few months for the implant to bond fully with the bone.
- RestorationOnce healed, we attach a natural-looking porcelain crown to the implant. It’s colour-matched to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
- Is the procedure painful?Most patients report minimal discomfort, and we use local anaesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable throughout. You may experience some tenderness afterwards, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
- How long does a dental implant last?With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants can last 15+ years and often much longer.
- How do I care for it?Just like a natural tooth: brush twice daily, clean between your teeth, and see your dentist regularly.
- Are there risks?As with any surgical procedure, there are small risks such as infection or implant failure. We minimise these risks through careful planning and follow-up.
- Am I a suitable candidate?Most adults with healthy gums and enough jawbone are suitable for implants. We'll assess this at your consultation.
Don’t let a missing teeth hold you back. A dental implant can restore your confidence, bite and long-term oral health without affecting surrounding teeth.

“I can't recommend Greenside Dental Practice highly enough! After years of debating whether to go ahead with a dental implant for my front tooth and battling a serious fear of dentists I finally took the plunge. I’m so glad I did.
From start to finish, the entire team at Greenside was incredibly supportive, friendly, and understanding. They truly made me feel at ease and helped me through every step of the process with such care and reassurance.
Thanks to them, I now have a new smile I’m proud of and I couldn’t be more grateful. Here's to celebrating a fresh start and the amazing people at Greenside who made it all possible!”
