Implanting Confidence into your Smile
I believe that dental implants should be comfortable, convenient, and affordable. I strive to provide our patients with a stress-free dental implant experience from start to finish, offering finance packages to help spread costs.
I use the latest digital technologies and techniques to ensure you receive the best possible care. From digital x-rays to 3D imaging, I have invested in the tools and equipment necessary to provide accurate diagnoses and effective bespoke treatments. The entire journey is planned digitally ensuring precision fitting and fast treatment times.
I am proud to offer the very high standard of care for everyone, and it doesn't stop when you leave my surgery! Ongoing maintenance via annual implant checks is important for the long term health and success of your implants. Regular checks can help with early detection of issues such as gum disease (peri-implantitis), as well as assessing the health of componentry.

Choosing the right clinician for your dental implant treatment is a big decision, and here's why you should entrust your smile to Greg Coffey. My practice is built on a foundation of deep empathy and understanding, especially for those who feel anxious about dental procedures. I genuinely love what I do, and that passion translates into meticulous, high-quality work and a commitment to making your experience as comfortable and positive as possible. From the moment you step through the door, you'll be greeted by kind and supportive staff, who are dedicated to putting you at ease and answering any questions you have. Clinically, I never compromise on quality; using top-of-the-range equipment and high-end dental implants and materials, ensuring the best possible long-term result, aesthetics, and function for your new smile. For me, it's not just about placing an implant; it's about providing a caring journey and a durable, beautiful result that you'll feel confident about for years to come.
A single tooth implant is the most advanced and durable replacement solution for a single missing tooth. Simple, quick and affordable, it offers a significant benefit over conventional options (dentures and bridges) because it functions completely independently, stimulating the jawbone to prevent bone loss, maintaining the integrity and health of adjacent natural teeth by avoiding the need to grind them down, and providing superior, life-like aesthetics, stability, and longevity.
In the right situations, a tooth can be removed, an implant placed and a crown can go on top all in the same appointment; this is called immediate placement with immediate loading of implants.
An implant bridge is a fixed dental restoration that replaces a segment of missing teeth by anchoring a prosthetic bridge onto two or more dental implants. This options provides unmatched stability for comfortable function, and ensures the surrounding healthy teeth are preserved and remain untouched.
Full arch implant treatment is a transformative and permanent solution for patients missing all or most teeth in a jaw, involving the strategic placement of as few as four dental implants into the bone, which serve as secure, non-removable anchors for an entire, custom-designed, fixed bridge of prosthetic teeth, thereby restoring complete function, preventing jawbone deterioration, and offering an incredibly natural-looking and durable smile that eliminates the need for traditional removable dentures. Often termed "teeth in a day", you can expect to walk out with a full set of teeth on the same day as the implant placements
Implant-retained denture treatment is a hybrid dental solution where a full or partial removable prosthetic arch is securely anchored to a minimal number of surgically placed dental implants, utilizing "snap-on" attachments that provide superior stability, prevent the slippage common with traditional dentures, and stimulate the jawbone to minimize bone loss, while still allowing the patient to easily remove the restoration for nightly cleaning.
For the vast majority of patients, once an implant has been placed and the prosthesis screwed on top, there is very little maintenance. However, for those unlucky few who develop complications it can be a scary situation as not every implant dentist deals with complications. Situations such as broken screws, fractured implants, or gum disease around implants can really build up the stress levels of you, the patient, as well as your general dentist. With over 150 brands of dental implant, each with their customised designs, screws and componentry, it can be difficult to source the correct tools required for repairs which can put off some dentists. However, I am here to help however I can and encourage you to reach out and contact me if you feel this is a service you require.
