Dr Peter Young PhD BDS – Specialist in Dental Implants Surgery “I have been placing dental implants for 29 years, so I bring a wealth of experience in dental implant procedures. My background includes hospital-based implant work, teaching, and research. I am often consulted for second opinions and have provided re-treatment for patients who experienced complications or failures with replacement teeth placed elsewhere. For many years, I have also worked in the field of dento-legal issues.”

A Meticulous Approach to Surgery

Dr Young adheres to stringent guidelines to ensure the best outcomes for every patient. One-third of his PhD research focused on bacteriology in dental implants, which informs his careful and thorough approach.

He received two NHS grants to study bacterial contamination during implant surgery. These studies, conducted through randomised controlled trials, have had far-reaching implications across multiple medical fields, including orthopaedics. The key is minimising bacterial contamination to ensure excellent bone fusion with the implant, contributing to long-term success.

What Contributes to Our High Success Rates?

• Thorough Patient Evaluation: Every patient undergoes a detailed assessment, ensuring that their medical conditions and gum health are fully understood.
• Meticulous Planning: Every step of the implant procedure is carefully mapped, including bone grafting if necessary.
• Stringent Surgical Procedures: We adhere to international guidelines, using advanced tools such as the Osstell device to test bone fusion.
• Proper Aftercare: Patients receive detailed care instructions and regular check-ups to maintain implant health.
• Regular Monitoring: Continuous monitoring ensures that implants remain healthy and functional over time.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants offer several advantages, such as preserving the jawbone and preventing the need to compromise the health of neighbouring teeth. Unlike dental bridges or dentures, implants are directly secured into the jaw, providing enhanced stability and durability.
