- An Implant is fitted, and a healing cap inserted

Karen's Story on Dental Implants
"The treatment has been absolutely brilliant and I am really pleased. I have had no problems whatsoever and I would definitely recommend implants to anyone without a doubt. I thought the whole procedure would be uncomfortable but I was very surprised as it wasnt! The care between both practices (Shine Dental and The Mall) has been brilliant!"
