Single Tooth Implant
Single Tooth Implant in Dubai
Lost a tooth and not sure what your options are? A single tooth implant replaces both the missing tooth and its root, so it looks, feels, and functions like the tooth you lost — without touching the healthy teeth next to it.
At Ferdows Medical Center in Deira, Dr. Sanjay Kar Specialist – Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery with 20+ years of experience has placed single tooth implants for patients across Dubai who want a permanent, natural-looking fix instead of a removable denture or a bridge that requires grinding down adjacent teeth
What is a Single Tooth Implant?
A single tooth implant has three parts:
- Titanium post — placed into the jawbone, acting as the new tooth root
- Abutment — a small connector that attaches once the post has healed
- Custom crown — shaped and shade-matched to your natural teeth
Unlike a bridge, it doesn’t rely on the teeth next to the gap for support. Unlike a removable denture, it doesn’t come out — and it stimulates the jawbone the same way a natural root does, which helps prevent the bone loss that follows tooth loss.
Am I a Candidate for a Single Tooth Implant?
- You're likely a good candidate if:
- You're missing one tooth (front or back)
- Your gums are healthy and free of active infection
- You have enough jawbone density to support an implant — if not, we can usually build it up with a bone graft first
- Conditions like diabetes or gum disease, if present, are under control
- Not sure? A short consultation and X-ray at Ferdows will tell you exactly where you stand — there's no obligation to proceed.

The Procedure of 1 tooth Implant, Step by Step
| Step | What Happens | Typical Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Consultation & scan | 3D imaging to check bone density and plan implant position | Day 1 |
| 2. Implant placement | Titanium post placed under local anesthesia | 30–60 minutes |
| 3. Healing (osseointegration) | The implant fuses with your jawbone | 3–4 months |
| 4. Abutment & crown | Custom crown fitted and matched to your bite and shade | Final appointment |
Most patients return to work the next day and manage any discomfort with standard pain relief.

The placement itself is done under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Mild soreness for 2–3 days afterward is normal and managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
The implant itself takes under an hour to place. The full process — including healing and the final crown — usually takes 3–4 months. If a bone graft is needed first, add 2–3 months.
In many cases, yes — this is called immediate placement. Your dentist will confirm if you’re a candidate during your consultation.
For most patients, yes — because it doesn’t require shaving down healthy neighboring teeth and it preserves jawbone density. A bridge can still be the right choice in specific cases, which your dentist will discuss with you.
