Single Dental Implant
one missing tooth, one permanent solution.
A single dental implant at Luna Dental in Cardiff city centre is about as near as modern dentistry gets to recreating your own tooth. We fit a small titanium root into your jaw, let it heal, then attach a crown that looks and feels like the tooth you lost — leaving the healthy teeth either side completely alone.

Why a single implant outperforms a bridge.
With a traditional bridge, the two healthy teeth either side of the gap need filing down to anchor the new crown in place. An implant avoids all of that, since it stands independently and nothing else needs to be touched. The teeth beside it stay exactly as they were, cleaning around the new tooth works just like flossing a normal one, and the implant helps prevent the bone loss that typically follows tooth loss.
- Teeth either side of the gap stay untouched
- Simple to clean — floss it as normal
- Helps prevent bone loss at the site
- Typically lasts 20+ years
- Free consultation and 3D CT scan
- Fixed, written quote before you commit

A single implant with crown starts from £2,500, covering the CT scan, the implant, the healing cap and the finished crown — and we'll always put the exact figure in writing before anything is agreed.
Allow 3–6 months from placing the implant to fitting the final crown. Almost all of that is bone healing quietly beneath the surface — your chairside time actually amounts to just two brief appointments.
No — that's one of the main reasons implants often beat bridges — the teeth either side of the gap remain completely untouched.
For most people, yes. Anyone who finds a partial denture uncomfortable typically welcomes a fixed, permanent implant as an alternative.
