Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Implant brands differ in material, thread design, surface treatment and the range of components available for the final crown, all of which affect how the implant integrates with bone and how it is restored. We use the Straumann system and can provide any brand. Dr Ope Sodeinde chooses the system for your anatomy at the consultation.
How long any implant lasts depends on your clinical health and aftercare. For implants we place, we offer a 10-year implant warranty, subject to its written conditions.
Comparing implant brands from the outside is hard. You may be weighing the cost of one system against the track record of another, or trying to work out why some practices favour a particular brand. The choice matters when you are investing in dental implants in London, and it depends on your bone density and anatomy, which Dr Ope Sodeinde assesses at your clinical appointment.
The main material choice is between titanium and zirconia. Titanium is the long-established material with the widest range of components; zirconia is a metal-free ceramic option. The 3D imaging taken at your consultation shows bone density and nerve position, and Dr Ope Sodeinde uses it to decide which system gives the most stable foundation in your case. That decision then shapes the implant procedure step by step. For patients who want a tooth fitted at placement, we also offer same-day dental implants.

It is normal to feel unsure which brand to choose or how systems compare. The clinical details, such as bone density, gum health and the position of the gap, decide the best fit for single and multiple tooth implants. We explain the properties of the brands we use at your visit, alongside the wider question of whether you are suitable for implants.
At your first visit Dr Ope Sodeinde assesses the bone and gum and identifies which implant system suits the site.
We explain the differences between the brands under consideration. Your plan may involve single units or implant-supported bridges, and the position of each implant is mapped before surgery.
The chosen implant is placed in the jawbone using the system's own instruments, so the thread and surface engage the bone as the manufacturer intends.
The bone fuses with the implant over several months. We give you a guide to caring for implants after surgery to protect the site during this period.
The custom crown is attached to the system's abutment. We check the fit and bite before you leave.
Decisions about implant systems are made by Dr Ope Sodeinde, specialist periodontist, who owns London Dental Specialists and is registered as a specialist in periodontics (GDC No. 104071).
The system is one line on your itemised quote, alongside the surgery, the abutment and the crown. You can see what dental implants cost, itemised on our pricing page.
Longevity depends on the system and, more than anything, on the bone and gum around it staying healthy. Dr Ope Sodeinde assesses your bone health at the consultation to confirm the system chosen is suited to a lasting result.
We use Straumann and can provide any brand. The one we recommend depends on your anatomy and the position of the missing tooth, and we confirm it at your assessment.
The differences are in the material, the shape and thread of the implant, the surface treatment, and the components available for the final crown. Some systems suit particular bone densities or positions in the mouth better than others. We select the one that gives the most stable integration for your case.
Your assessment covers bone density and the position of the gap, which together decide the system. Sedation is available if the procedure makes you anxious. To understand the costs and clinical requirements for your case, see what the £245 consultation includes and how to book it.

Local anaesthetic is standard and sedation is available. The £245 consultation fee goes towards the cost of any treatment you choose to have with us; it is not an extra on top. Treatment takes place at our Primrose Hill practice.
