What our Patients Say

Real patients. Real Results

Mr C Brewer - Full Arch Implants

Having never been confident with my ‘denture adhesives,’ I looked into having implants, to secure my full set of upper teeth.

After a consultation with Matthew, and his team, I was happy to go ahead with four ‘securing’ implants.
The procedure was quick and easy and there wasn’t much pain afterwards.

Making the teeth was accurately done, without impressions, on the computer. I was also able to design my own ‘smile.’
With my secure denture, I am now able to confidently choose what I would like to eat, without the fear of ’embarrassment.’ After two months now I am more than happy to recommend the implants. A big thank you to Matthew and nurse Jennifer and the wonderful reception team for their help in fitting in my appointments.

Mr M Lucas - Implant Retained Bridge

After having a bicycle accident and experiencing failed crowns and bridges I decided to go to The Gardens Dental Practice for a consultation and advice. 

I decided to have implants and a fixed bridge.

The treatment was well planned and I am delighted with the results. I cannot thank Matthew and his team of nurses and receptionists for their professionalism and kindness during the whole process.

Dental Implant FAQs in Dorchester

How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution. With good oral hygiene, regular maintenance and healthy gums, implants can last many years — often decades. The crown or bridge may need replacement over time due to normal wear.

Many patients who’ve been told they’re “not suitable” elsewhere can still be treated. Modern implant techniques, digital planning and bone grafting options mean bone loss doesn’t automatically rule out implants. A 3D scan is the best way to find out.

Implants involve advanced planning, surgical placement, high-quality materials and long-term follow-up care. While the upfront cost is higher, they’re often more comfortable, stable and longer-lasting than removable alternatives. This makes them a cost-effective solution over time for many patients.
