Dental Implants

 

A natural-looking, long-lasting solution for missing teeth. 

Losing teeth has many consequences. It can impact your confidence, your bite, and your comfort when eating or speaking. At Shelbourne Dental Clinic, we offer high-quality dental implant treatment, helping you restore your smile in a way that looks and feels natural.

Why choose implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the root of a missing tooth. They provide a strong, secure foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture, meaning you can chew, smile, and speak with ease.

Unlike dentures or traditional bridges, implants help preserve the surrounding bone and protect nearby teeth. Once placed, they function just like natural teeth and can last for decades with proper care.

Trusted technology, expertly delivered

At Shelbourne Dental Clinic, we use Straumann® implants and components exclusively. This Swiss system is renowned for its reliability, precision, and long-term results. It’s one of the most respected names in implant dentistry worldwide, and we’re proud to offer it to our patients.

We use digital cone beam scanning (CBCT) to carefully assess each case before treatment, allowing us to plan with precision and ensure the best possible outcome.

Training you can trust

Dental implant treatment requires careful planning, precision, and experience. Dr Karl Cassidy has undertaken extensive postgraduate training in implant dentistry, and is concluding a 3 year comprehensive university-based MSc programme in Dental Implants. This ensures your care is grounded in advanced clinical knowledge and the latest evidence-based techniques.

What to expect

The process begins with a full consultation and assessment, including digital imaging and a 3D scan of the jaw. We’ll take time to talk through your options, explain the procedure and timeline in full, and create a tailored treatment plan based on your individual needs.

With the right planning and care, dental implants can be an excellent long-term solution. We’re here to guide you through the process.

Very professional, with modern equipment and fantastic staff. Dr. Kelly is informative, patient and has a 'light hand', you don't really feel you're going to a dentist. They are very fair and correct also - I first went to Shelbourne Clinic to do a cosmetic procedure of about 4,000 EUR that was highly recommended by a dentist in another country. Dr. Kelly patiently explained with facts why I will have problems with it after few years and recommended not to do it, although he could have simply done it and bill me instead. Very professional and looking after patient's interests!

Fantastic place to go especially if you're a nervous patient. I felt so happy after my visit with Dr Mark Kelly as he has a wonderful pleasant manner and he is very thorough and professional. I would highly recommend visiting Shelbourne Dental Clinic!

I have been a patient of Mark Kelly for the last 4 years and am sad I cannot take him with me to the USA, where I will be moving. Mark is the best and friendliest dentist I have had in my life and my teeth are in tip-top shape because of his care.

Dr Mark Kelly's professionalism and expertise combined with a highly skilled team working in a state of the art clinic makes going to the dentist a very enjoyable experience!
