Dental Implants

At Laxey Dental Surgery we have a particular interest in dental implants.Prior to setting up the surgery Colin Partington undertook a multi system implant certificate course at Trafford General Hospital, Manchester between 1999 and 2000. Following this he began introducing implant treatment into general dental practice. In 2007 he embarked on a further two years of part time study and was awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Dental Implantology at the University of Salford in 2009. Colin continues to attend implant courses on a regular basis and is a member of the Association of Dental Implantology   

In addition to offering our own patients implant treatment Colin also accepts referrals from other dentists on the island.

Further Reading

There is a wealth of information about dental implants available on the internet and in the media, both at a national and local level. At Laxey Dental Surgery we always encourage patients to research subjects that will affect future health. However we do recommend that sources of information should be chosen carefully as some websites are unreliable and press reports and advertising can be misleading. We currently use three different implant systems, all of which are subject to strict quality controls in their research, development and manufacturing. All of these systems have decades of scientific research  behind them.

We recommend visiting the website of The Association of Dental Implantology at www.adi.org.uk. This is a very professional, unbiased site which patients find particularly informative. Leaflets are available to download or can be requested from us at the surgery.
