Dental Implants- Why Follow The PIP Scandal

Dental implants are the gold standard to replace missing teeth so why follow the PIP scandal? Whether you have one, several or all missing teeth, dental implants can provide you with a long lasting and natural solution. If you are considering dental implants, we urge you to research which dental implants are going to be used.

Only choose a dental implant system which is backed by extensive research over many years. Look at the websites of the companies and read about the research involved in the dental implants and their latest products.

We are strongly against techniques that are not evidence based. It may be tempting to choose an implant that is 1/3 or 1/2 the price which your own dentist offers, but we would urge you to choose a well known company, a skilled and experienced dentist and a dental practice that offers personal care dedicated to your needs.

Dr Nissit Patel only uses the very best materials in all aspects of dentistry including dental implants. For a free quick consultation or chat on dental implants, call us on 0207 7311162.
