A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, topped with a custom crown, bridge or denture designed to look and work much like a natural tooth. Implants suit adults who have lost one tooth, several teeth or all their teeth, and have healthy gums and enough jawbone, or are able to have bone added. At 7 Dimensions Medical Center (7DMC) our dentists plan and place dental implants at our Jumeirah (Umm Suqeim 3) and Al Barsha (Arjan) branches, including same-day options in suitable cases.
An implant has three parts: the implant post, which sits in the bone like a root; the abutment, a small connector; and the crown (or bridge or denture) that you see. After the post is placed, the bone grows around it over a few months, a process called osseointegration. Once it is firm, the final tooth is fitted. Unlike a bridge, an implant does not rely on the teeth next to the gap, and it can help limit the bone shrinkage that follows tooth loss.
| Option | What it involves | Often chosen for |
|---|---|---|
| Single implant and crown | One post, one crown | One missing tooth |
| Implant-supported bridge | Two or more implants holding a bridge | Several missing teeth together |
| Same-day (immediate) implant | Implant placed when the tooth is removed, often with a temporary tooth the same day | Suitable bone and gums, front teeth |
| Full-arch implants (All-on-4 or similar) | Four to six implants holding a full set of fixed teeth | Most or all teeth missing in one jaw |
| Implant-retained denture | A denture that clips onto implants | Stabilising an existing denture |
| Bone graft or sinus lift | Adding bone before or during implant placement | Thin or soft bone |

Once the final crown is fitted, an implant usually looks and feels much like a natural tooth. Success depends on your bone, your general health, smoking and how well you clean around the implant. With good care, implants can last many years; the crown on top may need replacing after 10 to 15 years. Results vary from person to person.

Dental implant placement is minor surgery, and like all surgery it carries risks. Your dentist explains them in full at your consultation. They include:
The cost of dental implants in Dubai usually ranges from AED 3,500 to AED 15,000 per tooth, including the crown, depending on the implant brand, whether bone grafting is needed and the clinic. Typical ranges: Single implant with crown, AED 3,500 to AED 15,000; Full-arch implants (All-on-4 or similar), per jaw, AED 15,000 to AED 45,000. These are typical market prices across Dubai clinics, not a 7DMC price list. At 7DMC, your exact price is confirmed at your consultation, before any treatment.
Full-arch implants such as All-on-4 usually cost AED 15,000 to AED 45,000 per jaw in Dubai, depending on the number of implants and the type of teeth fitted.
Yes, in suitable cases. The implant is placed and a temporary tooth fitted on the same day, with the final tooth after healing. It depends on your bone, gums and bite, which your dentist checks first.
The area is numbed with local anaesthetic, so most people feel pressure rather than pain during placement. Soreness and swelling for a few days afterwards is normal and is managed with pain relief.
With good cleaning and regular check-ups, implants can last many years. The crown on top may need replacing after 10 to 15 years.
Some dental insurance plans cover part of the cost; many treat implants as cosmetic. Check your policy before treatment.
7DMC offers dental implants at two branches: Jumeirah (Umm Suqeim 3), opposite Jumeirah Beach Hotel, and Al Barsha (Arjan, Al Barsha South), both with parking.
