What are Blade Implants?

Blade implants are flat titanium dental implants with one or two metal prongs on one long side, designed to be placed within the jawbone so that the prongs protrude through the gum to support replacement teeth. They are particularly valuable for patients with narrow bone crests where conventional implants would be too wide, especially in the posterior regions of the mouth where tooth loss has occurred. The blade design, which tapers from 1.25 mm at the shoulder to 0.5 mm at the apex, allows for placement in narrow sites, and the implants feature vents that enable bone integration. Due to their exceptional strength and ability to be angled into thin alveolar bone, blade implants provide an effective solution for patients with insufficient bone width who would otherwise require bone grafting procedures.

Conditions We Treat With Blade Implants

London Dental Specialists addresses various conditions with Blade Implants in East Finchley, enabling patients whose conditions benefit well to this approach. We assess your specific condition to ensure Blade Implants offers the optimal solution. Our practice provides realistic advice about which conditions improve most from Blade Implants.


  • Narrow Jawbone: Blade implants are ideal for patients with narrow jawbone structures where traditional cylindrical implants would be too wide to fit properly.

  • Posterior Tooth Loss: Particularly effective for replacing missing teeth in the back of the mouth where strong support is needed for chewing functions.

  • Thin Alveolar Bone: Perfect solution when the alveolar crest (the bone that holds teeth) has become thin or atrophied over time.

  • Limited Bone Height: Blade implants can be successfully placed in areas with reduced vertical bone height that would otherwise require bone grafting.

  • Scarce Spongy Bone: Effective in the lower distal sector where there is limited spongy bone available for traditional implant placement.

  • Complex Oral Rehabilitation: Used in comprehensive treatment plans where multiple teeth need replacement with limited bone availability.

  • Failed Traditional Implants: Can serve as an alternative solution when conventional cylindrical implants have failed due to bone limitations.

  • Avoiding Bone Grafting: Provides a treatment option for patients who wish to avoid more invasive bone augmentation procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are blade implants and how do they differ from traditional dental implants?


Blade implants are thin, flat titanium devices designed to be inserted into narrow jawbone areas where traditional cylindrical implants cannot fit. Unlike conventional dental implants which are screw-shaped, blade implants have a flat, thin design specifically developed for patients with insufficient bone width. They're particularly beneficial for patients with thin alveolar bone who might otherwise require bone grafting procedures before implant placement.



Who is an ideal candidate for blade implants?


Ideal candidates for blade implants include:



  • Patients with narrow jawbones who lack sufficient bone width for traditional implants

  • Individuals who wish to avoid extensive bone grafting procedures

  • Patients with atrophied alveolar processes

  • Those seeking a less invasive alternative to conventional implant surgery


A thorough consultation at London Dental Specialists will determine if blade implants are suitable for your specific case.



What is the success rate of blade implants?


With proper care and regular check-ups, blade implants can achieve success rates of 90-95% over 10+ years. Factors affecting success include the patient's oral hygiene practices, overall health, and adherence to post-operative care instructions. London Dental Specialists' experienced implantologists carefully assess each case to ensure optimal outcomes and longevity.



How long do blade implants last?


With excellent oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, blade implants can last 15-20+ years or even a lifetime. Their longevity depends on factors such as oral hygiene practices, regular professional maintenance, absence of grinding or clenching habits, and overall health. Six-monthly reviews at London Dental Specialists help ensure the continued success of your blade implants.



Is the blade implant procedure painful?


The blade implant procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring patients feel no pain during the surgery. Most patients report minimal discomfort comparable to other dental procedures. Post-operative discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain medication. London Dental Specialists prioritise patient comfort throughout the treatment process.



What is the recovery time after blade implant surgery?


Recovery after blade implant surgery typically takes 7-10 days for initial healing. Most patients can return to normal activities within 1-2 days, though swelling and mild discomfort may persist for up to a week. Complete osseointegration (fusion with the jawbone) occurs over 3-6 months. During this period, London Dental Specialists provide comprehensive aftercare guidance to ensure optimal healing.



How much do blade implants cost at London Dental Specialists?


Blade implant costs at London Dental Specialists vary based on the number of implants needed, the complexity of your case, and whether additional procedures are required. While blade implants may have different pricing than traditional implants, they often eliminate the need for costly bone grafting procedures. A detailed consultation is necessary to provide an accurate, personalised quote for your specific treatment plan.



What advantages do blade implants offer over traditional dental implants?


Blade implants offer several advantages including:



  • Suitability for narrow jawbones without requiring bone grafting

  • Less invasive surgical procedure in many cases

  • Reduced treatment time when bone grafting can be avoided

  • Lower overall cost when considering the elimination of bone augmentation

  • Excellent stability in thin alveolar ridges


London Dental Specialists' experts can determine if these advantages apply to your specific situation.
