A long-lasting solution that protects your smile
Missing a single tooth.
If you’ve lost a tooth due to injury or decay, an implant supported crown is a permanent solution that looks and feels like the real thing.
Severely damaged teeth.
When a tooth is too damaged for a filling or traditional crown, replacing it with an implant supported crown can restore your smile for the long term.
No need to compromise nearby teeth.
Unlike bridges, this option doesn’t rely on neighbouring teeth for support, keeping the rest of your smile healthy and intact.
A secure, comfortable fit.
Implant-supported crowns are fixed in place, so there’s no slipping or need to remove them - just a confident, natural-feeling smile.
How implant-supported crowns can restore your smile.
Implant-supported crowns are a strong, natural-looking way to replace missing or damaged teeth. Custom-made and carefully placed by our experienced team here in Red Lodge, they’re designed to blend seamlessly with your existing smile, restoring function and confidence with a long-lasting solution.
Understanding implant-supported crowns.
An implant-supported crown is a dental restoration designed to replace a missing tooth. This procedure involves inserting an artificial titanium root into the jawbone, which serves as a stable foundation for the artificial tooth.
Once the titanium implant has integrated with the bone, an artificial tooth, or crown, is attached to it. The crown is securely cemented in place and cannot be easily removed, providing a durable and long-lasting solution for tooth replacement.

Stronger, smarter tooth replacement at Red Lodge.
Choosing an implant-supported crown offers numerous benefits, enhancing both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile while preserving your natural teeth and overall dental health.

Preserves your natural teeth.
Unlike conventional tooth-supported bridges, an implant-supported crown does not require drilling down existing teeth. This preserves the integrity of your natural teeth, ensuring a healthier overall mouth structure.
High-quality restorative materials for lasting smiles.
Implant-supported crowns are typically made from one of the following four types of materials:
- Porcelain crowns are known for their natural appearance and ability to match the colour of surrounding teeth. They are an excellent choice for front teeth due to their aesthetic appeal.
- Gold alloy crowns, which can include gold, platinum or palladium, are highly durable and resistant to wear. They are often used for molars where strength is a priority over aesthetics.
- Porcelain fused to gold alloy crowns combine the strength of a gold alloy core with the natural look of a porcelain exterior. It offers the benefits of both materials, making it a popular choice for both front and back teeth.
- Zirconia metal oxide crowns are incredibly strong and durable, making them suitable for any location in the mouth. They also provide a natural appearance and are biocompatible, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
The implants themselves are made of titanium, a biocompatible metal that integrates well with the jawbone, providing a stable and long-lasting foundation for the crown.

Your questions about dental implants at Red Lodge answered.
Wondering what your visit to Red Lodge will be like? Here are answers to some common questions from new patients.
Got a question we haven’t covered?
Our friendly team is ready to help, just give us a call for a quick response.
A dental implant is a small titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial root. Over time, it fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a stable foundation for a crown that looks and functions just like a natural tooth. Implant-supported crowns restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently without affecting neighbouring teeth.
The implant process typically spans 3 to 6 months, including surgery and healing time. After placing the implant, your jawbone needs time to integrate with the implant for a strong, lasting hold before we fit your custom crown. Healing times vary depending on individual health and whether any additional procedures, like bone grafting, are necessary.
At Red Lodge Dental Surgery we prioritise your comfort. The surgery is performed under local anesthetic, ensuring you feel little to no pain during the procedure. Some swelling and mild discomfort afterward are normal but manageable with prescribed pain relief and proper aftercare. We are able to offer IV sedation for nervous patients.
Caring for your implant crown is similar to caring for natural teeth. Brush twice daily, floss carefully around the implant, and maintain regular dental check-ups. Good oral hygiene is crucial to prevent gum disease and ensure the longevity of your implant. Our team will provide personalised advice tailored to your needs.
Most adults in generally good health who have sufficient jawbone density can benefit from implants. During your consultation, Dr Georgios Emmanouilidis will conduct a thorough oral health assessment, including scans and X-rays, to determine your suitability. We’ll discuss all treatment options and recommend the best plan for your smile.
If there’s insufficient bone, we may suggest a bone grafting procedure to build up your jawbone and provide a solid foundation for the implant. This is a common and safe procedure, and Dr Georgios will explain the process clearly during your consultation, so you understand every step before moving forward.
With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, implant crowns often last 15 years or more. At Red Lodge Dental Surgery, we provide ongoing care and check-ups to help you protect your investment and keep your smile healthy for years to come.
While implant failure is uncommon, it can occur due to infection, poor healing, or excessive force on the implant. Our experienced team in Suffolk and surrounding areas carefully monitors your progress throughout treatment to reduce risks. Early diagnosis and prompt care are key to successful outcomes.

For patients who feel anxious or sensitive, we offer sedation options to help you relax and have a comfortable experience.
