Dental Implants in Manchester — From £2,750 per Implant

Dental implants are a fixed way to replace a missing or severely damaged tooth.

An implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone with a custom porcelain crown on top, used to replace a single missing or very damaged or decayed tooth.

Patients travel to us from across the wider Tameside borough — see our dedicated dental implants in Tameside page for town-by-town travel times from Audenshaw, Denton, Ashton, Hyde and beyond.

Why patients across Manchester come to Droylsden for implants

Walmsley Dental is a family-run practice at 253 Manchester Road, Droylsden, M43 6HE. We’ve been in the same place since 1984. Patients come to us from across Tameside and east Manchester for their implants. Many tell us they chose us because they wanted to see the same dentist from the first appointment to the final check-up.

Dr Edward Walmsley sees you at your consultation, places your implants and fits your final teeth. He’ll know what he placed, why he placed it and what the plan was. If you need an adjustment years from now, you can book in with the same practice, on the same road.

Typical drive times to the practice, as listed on our town pages:

There’s free street parking on Manchester Road. The practice is fully accessible from ground level, and you can walk to us from Droylsden Metrolink.

The implant process, step by step

Every case is different, so we’ll give you your own timeline at consultation. Here’s how a typical single implant goes.

1. Consultation (£50). This is a 45 to 60 minute appointment with Dr Edward Walmsley. We look at your bite, gum health, remaining teeth and the gap, and take intraoral photographs. You’ll leave with a clear plan and answers to your questions. The £50 is redeemable against your treatment if you go ahead.
2. CBCT (3D) scan (£300) and fixed quote. If implants look right for you, the next step is a CBCT scan. It’s separate from the consultation and costs £300. The scan shows your bone height and density, and how close the area is to nerves and sinuses. We use it to plan exactly where the implant goes. You then get a fixed written quote. Any preparatory work, such as bone grafting, is identified at this stage and built into the quote.
3. Placing the implant. The implant goes in during a single appointment under local anaesthetic. Most patients feel pressure rather than pain, and many say it was no worse than having a tooth out. Some mild discomfort and swelling for two to three days afterwards is normal. Over-the-counter pain relief usually helps.
4. Healing (around three to four months). The implant bonds with your jawbone during this time. We see you for a check along the way.
5. Fitting your crown. At a final appointment, we fit your custom porcelain crown.
6. Looking after it. We include hygiene appointments in every implant treatment plan, because healthy gums are the biggest factor in how long an implant lasts.

Most single implants take four to six months from start to finish. For some straightforward cases with enough bone, we can place an implant straight after taking the tooth out and fit a temporary crown the same day. Whether that suits you depends on your bone and whether the area is infected. We’ll tell you at consultation.

Single implant, bridge or All-on-4?

There’s more than one way to replace missing teeth. The right choice depends on how many teeth are missing, the health of the teeth around the gap and your bone. Here’s a plain overview. Dr Walmsley will talk through which options suit you.

All-on-4 in more detail. All-on-4 is for patients missing all their upper or lower teeth, or facing the loss of them. Four implants support a fixed full arch of teeth. You’ll leave on the day of surgery with temporary teeth, so you’re never without teeth while you heal. After about four months of healing, we fit your final teeth. We also offer All-on-6, from £12,000 per arch. Read our All-on-4 dental implants in Manchester page for the full process.
