Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Dental implants replace missing teeth with a titanium root substitute that supports a crown, bridge or full arch. At our Primrose Hill practice, Dr Ope Sodeinde, a GDC-registered specialist periodontist, places the implants and leads the clinical planning. We use 3D imaging at the assessment stage so the plan is based on your actual bone and gum anatomy.
Cost is the first question for most patients. The implant consultation is £195 and goes towards your treatment if you proceed.
Your assessment and surgery are carried out by Dr Ope Sodeinde, a specialist periodontist on the GDC Specialist Register (GDC No. 104071). His specialty is the gum and bone that hold an implant in place.
We use the Straumann implant system and can provide any brand. You will know the exact implant being placed before you commit to treatment.
We offer a 10-year implant warranty, subject to its written conditions. It covers specified implant-related costs; it is not a promise of a clinical outcome.
You get an itemised quote and a written plan, valid for 90 days, so every fee is known before you decide.
We are a CQC-registered dental practice. See what your £195 consultation includes before you book.
Anxiety stops many people replacing missing teeth. We offer sedation options for implant surgery.

Planning starts with the £195 consultation with Dr Ope Sodeinde. It includes a clinical examination, in-mouth x-rays, a written treatment plan and an itemised quote valid for 90 days, plus a complimentary second appointment to ask questions. A CT scan, if needed, is charged separately from £150 but is included in our implant treatment packages. During this visit we also establish whether you need a bone graft before an implant can be placed.
The £195 fee goes towards the cost of any treatment you choose to have with us; it is not an extra on top. The written plan is yours to keep whether or not you proceed.
Payment arrangements can be discussed with our staff. For a fuller breakdown of fees, read our implant costs guide.

Implant care here is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, specialist periodontist, who owns and runs the practice. Periodontics is the specialty concerned with the gum and bone that support the teeth, which is the same tissue an implant depends on. He is registered as a specialist in periodontics with the General Dental Council, GDC No. 104071.
A titanium post is placed in the jaw and left to integrate with the bone. Once it is stable, we fit a crown, bridge or full-arch restoration on top. The sequence starts with a clinical assessment and imaging to map your anatomy and plan the placement.
Fees depend on your clinical needs and how many teeth are being replaced. Your quote is itemised, so you can see what each part of the treatment costs before you start.
Most adults are candidates, including many with significant bone loss. Where bone is lacking, grafting can often make an implant possible. Whatever the current state of your mouth, the assessment is a clinical conversation, not a judgement.
The timeline depends on whether you need grafting and on how long the implant takes to fuse with the bone. We set out the expected sequence of visits at your first appointment so you can plan around it.
Patients who review their implant treatment with us tend to mention the same things: a calm, unhurried manner, and options explained without pressure. That matters most to people who arrive anxious.
Ope, a specialist in Periodontics, reassured me and explained the entire process thoroughly.
Alongside Dr Ope Sodeinde, the team includes Dr Neha Patel, specialist in endodontics (GDC No. 150517), Dr Kia Papagalani, specialist orthodontist (GDC No. 228487), and Dr Nicky Dehbonei and Dr Lydia Dzhukha, dentists with special interests.
Whether you are a candidate depends on your dental history, your gum health and the amount of bone available. The 3D imaging taken at your visit lets Dr Ope Sodeinde see the bone volume directly and decide whether a graft is needed before placement.
If the idea of dental surgery makes you anxious, sedation is available for the procedure itself.

An implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone. An abutment, the connecting piece, is fitted to the post and supports the final crown. Because the implant carries its own load, the neighbouring teeth do not need to be cut down as they would for a conventional bridge.
We treat complex cases as well as straightforward ones, including full mouth reconstructions and implant bridges. For eligible candidates we offer same-day implants, with the provisional teeth designed on our CAD/CAM system. Suitability is a clinical question, and we settle it at an initial consultation.
The right method depends on how many teeth are missing and where. For a full mouth, we place All-on-4 full-arch implants to secure a complete set of teeth on four posts. Some patients choose same-day dental implants to shorten the gap between surgery and having teeth to wear.
A single gap or a few adjacent teeth call for a different approach. We fit single and multiple tooth implants, and where several teeth in a row are missing, two implants can carry an implant-supported bridge without needing a post for every gap.
Material choice affects how the restoration looks and wears. We use Zirconia for a natural, durable finish. Dr Ope Sodeinde assesses your bone density and oral health at the consultation and recommends the material and method that suit you. You can view every type of dental implant we place for the full range.
Dr Ope Sodeinde examines your jawbone and gum health and decides whether you can proceed directly or need bone grafting or gum treatment first.
The titanium posts are placed in the bone under local anaesthetic. If you are anxious, we offer sedation for implant surgery.
Over several months the implant fuses with your bone. This is the foundation that later carries a single tooth or a full arch.
We attach your custom crown, bridge or arch. Multiple implants can support implant-supported bridges and full mouth restorations.
Dentures, bridges, crowns and veneers each suit a different amount of damage. A conventional bridge relies on the neighbouring teeth being prepared to carry it; a denture rests on the gum. An implant stands on its own root, with the abutment securing the restoration, so the adjacent teeth are left untouched. Which option is right for you depends on your bone, your gums and your budget, and we go through the trade-offs with you at the consultation.
An implant lasts as long as the bone and gum around it stay healthy, which puts daily cleaning and regular reviews at the centre of long-term success. Read our guide to caring for implants after surgery.
Start by finding out whether you are suitable for implants. If you want to know what the surgery involves, we explain the implant procedure step by step.
Putting off treatment is common. We use local anaesthetic as standard and offer sedation for those who need it. Your process starts with a £195 specialist consultation.
