What is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is an artificial replacement for a tooth root made of titanium. They are highly successful and reliable.

The teeth implants integrate with the bone and create a stable platform for a crown, bridge or denture. The restoration is usually fitted onto the implant by an internal screw.

Am I a suitable patient?

Dental implants are suitable for patients with good general health. They can only be placed once the jawbone had stopped growing (i.e. the mid-late twenties and older). Excessive alcohol use and smoking are associated with higher failure rates. Also, poorly controlled diabetes, bone disorders and gum disease can affect success rates/suitability. We will discuss all concerns with you and only undertake treatment if a good outcome is expected. Prior to dental implant treatment, the mouth needs to be stable and free of any dental disease.

Planning dental implant treatment

A full examination is required with x-rays and possibly models of your teeth/jaws. We may suggest a detailed CT scan to accurately determine the quantity and quality of bone, as well as proximity to vital structures such as nerves, blood vessels and sinuses. Using the preliminary records we can determine the best position for the implant and plan accordingly. We will provide a full written treatment plan outlining all alternative options and risks/benefits of treatment. Fees will be explained along with a plan of when payments are due.

How long does treatment take?

Duration of treatment differs between cases and can be between 6 weeks to 6 months. Ideally implant treatment in Essex is recommended within 3-4 months after removal of a tooth being replaced.

How long do dental implants last?

After successful integration the success is dependent on day-to-day maintenance. We recommend diligent cleaning with twice daily brushing, antibacterial mouthwash and interdental cleaning. Regular hygienist visits will also prevent any inflammation around the implants.

If poorly maintained dental implants can suffer from a disease similar to gum disease that is very difficult to manage.

Dental implants can last as long as a natural tooth if well looked after. The restorations on top of implants (crowns/bridges/dentures) may require reparative work over time.

The stages of dental implant treatment

Assessment and planning -exam, x-rays, models, CT scan, wax-up of intended restoration, radiographic stent
Implant placement – simple surgical procedure, under local anaesthetic however can opt for sedation, grafting may be required
Integration – period of waiting 6 weeks to 6 months, may need a provisional bridge/denture during this period

Maintenance – oral hygiene instruction, routine hygienist visits and regular check-ups

FAQ's about Dental Implants Billericay

How do I maintain my dental implants?

Normal twice daily brushing and interdental cleaning will help maintain your implants in the best condition. It is important to maintain visits with your dental hygienist to ensure your dental health and hygiene is optimal.

What if the implant does not work?

Generally implants are 95% successful. Failure can occur most commonly in smokers, patients with previous gum disease, poor oral hygiene and complex medical histories. Different implant approaches One Stage – implant is placed and is visible above the gum. Two Stage – implant is place and is buried below the gum (at the second stage the implant will be uncovered a month before the crown is made). Same Day – considerable planning is done prior to surgery and the implants are ‘loaded’ or restored on the same day. Immediate – implant is placed at the same time of extraction, can still be a 1-stage or 2-stage procedure. Immediate placement and loading – implant is placed at the same time of extraction and a new tooth is placed at the same visit.

What if I do not have enough bone?

Simple grafting can be performed using your own bone collected from the implant preparation site. Additional, bone can be used from bovine, porcine or human bone sources (these are all carefully prepared to ensure that they are safe for use). Simple grafting procedures are often performed at the time of implant placement. A resorbable barrier/membrane may be used to protect and stabilise the graft material. Bone grafts can be collected from other areas in your mouth, i.e. behind the lower molars or the chin. These are sometimes called ‘onlay grafts’ and are left to mature before implant placement. In the upper jaw with the back teeth, the roots are closely associated with an air sinus. This is often a challenge with dental implant treatment and the solution is to perform a sinus lift procedure where graft material in placed into the base of this sinus to create bone height needed for a dental implant. Does bone grafting affect the length of treatment? Yes it does as grafted material can take longer to mature. Sometimes a specialist in Essex may be needed to perform the grafting procedure as this is often more complex to perform than the implant placement procedure. Patience is generally a virture and we will advise you of the best protocol on a case-by-case basis.

How many teeth can be supported by dental implants?

Dental implants can be used to replace one ore more teeth. Crowns or bridges are fixed solutions with implants. Alternatively, dental implants can be used along with special attachments to help stabilise a loose denture. If you grind your teeth at night or have very complex restorative work we would recommend a protective splint to prevent any potential damage.

Do I have enough bone?

X-rays only show a 2D image and this is why we now use detailed CBCT scans to assess bone more accurately. If you do not have enough bone there are methods to overcome this, i.e. grafting. Bone loss is caused after removal of a tooth. Most ‘resorption’ occurs within a few months. Once you have had treatment for missing teeth done, then dental implants can actually allow the bone to become stronger and denser.

What structures need to be avoided during implant placement?

In the upper jaw the main structure of importance is the maxillary sinus. This is located above the roots of the upper molar/premolar teeth. In the lower jaw you have a key nerve running under the roots of the lower teeth. CBCT scans allow accurate measurement of distances to ensure a clear safety margin around vital structures.

Can dental implants be placed next to teeth, or can they be linked together?

There needs to be a minimum space, which can be measured by your dentist, but dental implants can be placed next to your healthy teeth. Dental implants are not linked to natural teeth as their foundations are different and it is no longer recommended practice. They are to improve the strength and stress distribution between them.

Is dental implant treatment uncomfortable and do I need to be sedated?

Why patient's love DentalKind

Love having Dr Sergio as my dentist! He is always so kind, patient, professional and trustworthy - I highly recommend him. And the rest of the team are just as lovely 🙂

Second to none care from Dr Sunil and his lovely team. Had 4 wisdom teeth removed seamlessly and a year on have just completed straightening. Couldn’t be happier. Thank you! X

Had gum contouring and teeth bonded here with Dr Sergio. He has completely transformed my smile! I’m so so pleased with the results. Dr Sergio and all the staff at the surgery are also so lovely and helpful. Thank you 🙂

My experience as a patient at Dental Kind.
The practice is always impeccably clean, staff are very friendly and helpful.

Service is first class and dental procedures are faultless.

Highly recommend.

I love the team at dentalkind. From the reception team to dentist and hygienist, they are all so friendly and helpful and make you feel at ease when you get there and throughout the procedures. I’ve had a few things done over the last year since I joined and can’t fault the professionalism and friendliness. It’s my preferred private practice and will continue to use it and recommend it. Great for kids too as little had to have a procedure done and they were great with her! Highly recommend!

Although I would have preferred not to be in the position of needing an Emergency tooth extraction on a Saturday I was so pleased with the experience at Dental Kind.

I was in so much pain and never had toothache before in my life and I’m 63 now.

Advice was professional and choice was made for extraction which went smoothly and to my appreciation and surprise no pain.

Very nice people all round.

Thank you

I have just finished my course of Invisalign and veneers with Dr Chirag. I felt Dr Chirag completely understood my concerns and addressed them all well!
He took time to design a treatment plan for me and explained clearly in person, on the phone and sometimes video calls every step of the process.
I am absolutely over the moon with the end result. My teeth are better than I could’ve imagined
I’ve now found a dentist I trust and would highly recommend him.

Thank you Dr Chirag!

Went for emergency appointment and extraction. Doctor and staff very helpful. The dentist got a very light hand that I didn't feel a thing. Overall happy with their services. Thank you.

Great dentist made a emergency appointment the same day in registered patient and got seen on the same day extraction of tooth great work would highly recommend thanks guys

I have only words of praise! I was well received and everyone was very kind to me, I want to thank Dr. Chirag Gohil. I recommend to everyone

Hygienist appointment today. Was a bit nervous because I had a sensitive tooth. Kerry was amazing. Kind and reassuring. No pain or discomfort during or after the treatment. Thank you!

Such warming people

Very happy. Fixed my front Tooth . Amazing Dentist. Thank you All. +++++

I saw Hollie to day for my first hygiene appointment. I simply couldn’t be happier. She was kind , patient and do caring. I’m very nervous, she put me at ease from the very start. Explained everything which helped me massively. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you x

My daughter is very nervous of needles and dentist. She had to have a wisdom tooth removed. She is 21 but I travelled down from the north to be with her. Dr Sergio and his nurse Yasmin were amazing. Literally within 15 minutes all over and done. My daughter didn’t even realise the tooth was removed. Has had no issues since. The care was second to none thank you so much. This positive experience will make it a lot easier for her in future.

Recently registered with DentalKind after becoming unhappy with my previous dentist. Whilst waiting for my initial examination I had an emergency which they were able to sort out on the day. My first appointment was with Dr Sunil, he was very easy to talk to and understanding of the issues I had, he explained everything really well and made sure I fully understood my treatment plan.

I've just finished a couple of sessions with Holly the hygienist and whilst I don't relish this kind of thing, it's impossible not to feel completely at ease when you're in the hands of someone who's clearly exceptional at their job. My mouth/teeth have never felt so good and with all of the information and advice she gave me I'm confident that feeling will continue.

From the receptionists to the dentists, everything about DentalKind has been first rate. If you're looking for a first dentist or thinking about changing from your current one, I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Dr Sunil and his team have been brilliant during my last 2 years of using DentalKind. From the moment you step into the practice, you are welcomed with warm and friendly staff and a lovely clean and modern space. The attention to detail is fantastic.

Dr Sunil is a kind, patient and thorough dentist who is always honest too. From my hygiene appointments, regular check ups, Invisalign, composite bonding and whitening treatments, I can't recommend DentalKind highly enough.

A relative has severe dementia and had an accident where her front teeth were broken. The nature of her condition meant that the only way to proceed was by the use of sedation.After I contacted Dentalkind, they responded immediately, with kindness, compassion and efficiency. They arranged for an external sedationist, and scheduled the work with urgency. 2 sessions were needed (and a follow up examination), and at all times I was struck with how kind, patient and devoted to patient care everyone at Dentalkind was. Dr Chirag took charge of the situation and extracted the teeth and arranged for a permanent bridge to be constructed and then fitted it.

I could not recommend any dentists higher - they were a life-saver, literally.

Dentalkind have rescued me twice now in a crisis situation. They are always professional.supporrive kind and compassionate. The whole team are simply the best.
Sunil you are outstanding. Thank you

I have used Dr Sunil for various treatments including fillings, Invisalign and composite bonding over the past 24 months. I travel 90 minutes each way just to use him (after an initial recommendation) - he is THAT GOOD.

He has been absolutely amazing and the results have far surpassed what I ever initially thought possible. He is extremely gentle, thoughtful and caring (as someone who normally dislikes going the dentist, Sunil has completely removed this). He is very transparent and honest, always available to have open discussions and opinions too.

I could not recommend this practise anymore, he is the best in the business.

Went for my first appointment today at Dental Kind. From the moment I walked into the reception and were greeted by the friendly reception staff, I knew that I had chosen the right place. The dentist Sunil was amazing, honest, caring, very knowledgeable and realistic with what needed to be done. He made me feel at ease from the start. The dental nurses were also lovely & caring. I would highly recommend this surgery to anyone in need of private dental treatment. Looking forward to getting the rest of my treatment done here. A* from me. Thank you!

Dr Chirag is the best dentist I’ve ever seen. He has amazing attention to detail resulting in a fantastic Invisalign and composite bonding experience. I’ll be moving an hour away soon but there is no doubt that I will still be coming to dentalkind! Megan,Yasmin and the other staff are also always so lovely and welcoming! I’d recommend dentalkind to anyone!

I haven’t been to the Dentist for some years however Kerry the Hygienist and the Assistant were lovely .
Kerry has a lovely manner and put Me at ease taking the sting out of My Anxiety .
I’m looking forward to finally facing My fears and “look forward “ to taking the next steps to a better smile .
Thank You -

I was given the very best of care by excellent and dedicated staff.

I started my Invisalign journey with Chirag around 2 years ago. From the get go, he has understood what I wanted to achieve and whilst at the time it felt that the road ahead was long, in hindsight his attention to detail and patience are the reason for the fantastic results I’ve seen.

I had to have a number of fillings at the start of my treatment and must say it’s probably the most relaxed I’ve ever been at the dentist. I couldn’t recommend these guys highly enough.

Sunil and his team are absolutely amazing.
The surgery is spotless, modern.
I went for sedation for my treatment, from initial visit to the sedation appointment the team put me at ease, and communication was spot on.
Arrived on the day, Pasq the sedation man was talkative, funny and managed to get my vein first try...no mean feat with my deep veins.
No one likes the dentist but I can not recommend Sunil and his team enough.
Thank you to all the team @ Dental Kind ❤️

After a very bad experience as a child and many years of not going to a dentist, I eventually ended up at Dentalkind in Billericay, after calling them for an appointment and speaking to the great receptionist I ended up meeting the dentist Dr Chirag Gohil, who took the time to help me over my fears and set my mind at ease, he explained the procedure and exactly how things would go, and as I had to have a general anaesthetic because of my fears of dentists and needles, I had a denture fitting before the procedure and on waking up I was again cared for very well and I had a full set of temporary dentures awaiting me, I had several appointments after the procedure to make sure everything fitted well and after 6 months of healing I then had several appointments to take moulds and then new dentures were made for me these fit very well and are amazing and look great, I would very highly recommend this dentist to everyone especially if you are a nervous patient the whole practice is professional and friendly and really helped me get over my fears and made my experience the best it could possibly be.

I have recently seen Dr Sunil Chudasama for a dental implant. He is an excellent dentist, very personable, kind, gentle and proficient. I have been in the profession myself and worked with lots of Dentists. I would highly recommend.

I received an absolute first class service throughout my visit today.
With unbearable tooth ache the past few days and feelings of despair after ringing numerous dentists and even NHS 111 and getting nowhere. Thank heavens I came across Dental Kind on Google who were able to accommodate me as an emergency. What a truly wonderful team of staff here! The receptionist was so lovely and extremely helpful and Dr Chirag was just amazing and did a brilliant job, explaining clearly the X-Ray results and the various options I could choose. I felt embarrassed to admit I’d not been to a dentist for 6 yrs but he was so kind and non judgemental. I opted for extraction and was literally quaking in my boots but - and I am a very nervous patient - I can honestly say after the local anaesthetic was given I didn’t feel any pain at all during the procedure. I just enjoyed watching ‘Countdown’ on the telly right above me, how cool was that!!!
Needless to say after receiving such a great service, I’ve now registered here instead of closer to home.
Thank you so much to all of you for taking such good care of me. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
Viv Churnside

I had extreme anxiety about going to the dentist but Dr Sunil and his amazing team put me at complete ease. Constantly checking that I was okay, not doing anything I wasn’t comfortable with and talking through everything with me. After years of avoiding any dental work, I’ve finally had the treatment I needed, all thanks to the kindness and understanding of the staff. I am so grateful for everything and may even actually look forward to my next dentist appointment! Thank you again 😁

Absolutely impressed by the in-depth insights from the practice manager here, Lisa. Their emphasis on quality, price, and experience for implants resonated with my search criteria. Lisa's extensive industry background and Dr. Sunil's awards and accolades assure a commitment to excellence. Valuable info on top implant brands, the significance of a CBCT scan for precision and an accurate fee, and the 0% interest offer for 12 months made this place stand out. The dedication to providing comprehensive information without pressure speaks volumes about their professionalism. In a world where some practice front desk staff lack basic implant knowledge, this one feels like a secure choice. Highly recommended.

We were lucky enough to secure a last minute hygienist appointment as recommended by a friend. Service was seamless from the first interaction. We will definitely be looking in to proceeding with other treatments here. Thank you!

I cant thank this dental practice enough especially Chirag the staff are fantastic i came in March completely prettified i mean i really bad i hadn’t seen a dentist for about 18 years but i had lost my front teeth and the rest of my teeth were about to fall out. 8 months on and now able to go to the dentist without having someone come with me i have a beautiful set of dentures and friends and family say they haven’t seen me smile so much. I really can’t thank you enough

Chirag as a dentist has been so good for me, he’s been so understanding and has made a fantastic job of everything I’ve had done. Still quite a bit to go but I’m facing that with total confidence now. The receptionists, nurses, hygienists and managers are always a pleasure to see. I literally want to buy them all cake but that would be inappropriate 🤣.

I have had a huge fear of the dentist for the entirety of adulthood and have genuinely never known a practice be so kind, compassionate and informative as this. I was talked through every step of my procedure with the hygienist. Kerry was sweet and took everything at my pace so I wasn’t overwhelmed with a lot of well needed praise and recognition! The admin staff have been so kind and patient with me whilst I cry booking appointments and waiting nervously in the reception area, particularly Megan who was super professional and lovely when I originally sent my enquiry explaining how nervous I was. I have had follow up calls after all my appointments to check how the works have settled and how I am feeling, which I think is a wonderful touch and shows just how attentive they are. And my dentist Chirag has been nothing short of amazing. He is so informative and is clearly incredibly knowledgeable and highly skilled in his work. I have been for three appointments to have multiple fillings re-done (some of which were quite deep, and tricky after some poor NHS work) But Chirag has taken everything at my own pace, shown me what work is going to take place, and been such a great comfort throughout. He works incredibly hard, and nothing is too much of a problem for him. My mouth has never felt better, and after multiple visits I managed the last one without a single tear! I honestly couldn’t recommend a practice more. Best decision I have made in a long time deciding to finally take the jump and book in with you. Thank you.

I recently had Invisalign and composite bonding with Sunil, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Sunil is an incredibly skilled and experienced dentist, and he made the entire process as easy and stress-free as possible.

During my initial consultation, Sunil took the time to understand my goals and expectations. He explained the entire process in detail, and he answered all my questions patiently and thoroughly. I felt completely confident in his care.

My Invisalign treatment went smoothly, and I was amazed at how quickly my teeth straightened out. Sunil was always available to answer my questions and address any concerns I had.

Once my Invisalign treatment was complete, Sunil performed the composite bonding, the results are truly amazing! My teeth look perfectly natural and even. I'm so happy with the way my smile looks now.

Sunil is not only a skilled dentist, but he's also a very kind and caring person. He made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Sunil to anyone looking for a dental professional.

I have had face treatments with Saj, who is very patient, professional and honest. I look forward to going back.

I woke up with toothache start of the week and by the Saturday I was in bits. Found Dental Kind online and Dr Chirag saw me on the Saturday and extracted the tooth for me and I've been pain-free since. He was very kind snd gentle. Very happy with the professional service! Would highly recommend! I plan to come back for further treatment !

The people in here are so Patient and caring. I cannot recommend them enough.

Amazing staff, so helpful, an amazing outcome from treatment

I have had composite bonding, some crowns and a bridge. I am extremely happy with the overall improvement in the size, shape and colour of my teeth. They are natural looking and Sunil worked hard to get me the result I wanted in time for my son's wedding.
Would highly recommend this dental practice. The whole team are very friendly and were keen to see the end result.

Saw Chloe the hygienist today . Very welcoming, kind and patient. Put me at ease and talked through all the procedures. Very friendly receptionists. Highly recommend this practice.

Can I thank everyone there they are so supportive and helpful I don’t know what I would have done without them and the quality of work is amazing thank you and I would highly recommend dental kind for any dental work thanks again John Lawrence

What a fantastic dental practice. I can't praise them enough for the very kind way they have treated me and the great work they have done. For the first time I can start to smile with confidence. Highly recommend!!!

By far the best dentistry I’ve experienced. I cannot praise the excellence demonstrated along with professionalism and caring friendly efficient reception staff. I needed urgent treatment that was carried out both promptly and effectively in perfect surroundings. I’m looking forward to my next appointment… how often is that stated 🙏

Hello… my experience with the hygienists and Dr Sunil was at a very professional level when I visited in December 2022….and the dental practice has reached a high level in all aspects,Well done and keep up the good work the whole team are doing!

Having been to several dentists to repair my jaw I have found that DentalKind in Billericay to be the most compassionate of them all. They take patients welfare seriously. I am having major surgery on my jaw with replacement teeth on a neo-arch. All the work to be done has been explained to me and when I have had questions these have been answered promptly and satisfactorily so that I understand every step of the way. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone wanting to undergo surgery and definitely to those who have issues with dentists.

Excellent service and care. The best dentist I have ever had.
