One practice, in Purley, for patients from Merstham
We have one practice: 49 Foxley Lane, Purley CR8 3EH, with free on-street parking outside. There is no Foxley Lane Dental branch in Merstham, just Merstham patients who make the trip to us.
Most people in Merstham looking into implants are not chasing a quick fix. They want a tooth that does its job for years, feels like their own and does not become the next thing on the worry list. That is exactly what a well-placed implant is for.
An implant is a small titanium post that takes the place of the tooth root, with a custom crown, bridge or denture on top. Because it fuses with your jawbone, it is the closest thing dentistry offers to a natural tooth, and looked after properly it is built for the long haul.
This page is about what gives an implant that longevity, and how we protect it.
The single biggest factor in how long an implant lasts is how accurately it is placed. Get the position right relative to your bone and nerves and you have a stable foundation that holds. Get it wrong and problems follow.
That is why every case here is planned from a CBCT scan, a detailed 3D image of your jaw. We map placement to your exact anatomy before we begin, so the implant sits where the bone can support it best. Where bone is thin we plan grafting, a sinus lift, or in the right cases zygomatic implants, rather than forcing a compromise.

We place Straumann and Southern Implants, two of the most researched and trusted systems in implant dentistry, with long track records behind them. The materials matter when you are asking something to last decades.
On top of that, your implant carries a 10-year guarantee. And because the dentist who plans your case, Dr Nev Jeyakumar, Dr Christine Marzahn or Dr Ankit Patel, is the same one who places and restores it, your care is never split across people who have not seen the full picture.
After placement the implant needs around three months to fuse properly with the bone, a process called osseointegration. That quiet phase is what gives an implant its strength, so we let it run its course rather than rushing. In many cases you wear a temporary tooth in the meantime, so you are never left with a gap while it settles.
An implant lasts when the gum and bone around it stay healthy, which makes aftercare central rather than optional. Day to day it is normal brushing and flossing. Beyond that, our hygienist Vicky Harris supports your implant care, and routine reviews let us catch anything small before it grows. Treat it like a natural tooth and it tends to reward you like one.
With good care and healthy gums, implants are designed to last many years, and yours is backed by a 10-year guarantee.
Accurate placement, a trusted implant system and good aftercare are the main factors, which is why we plan from a 3D scan and use Straumann and Southern Implants.
The implant needs around three months to fuse with your jawbone, and that integration is what gives it its long-term strength.
Normal brushing and flossing plus routine hygienist visits keep the gum and bone healthy, which is what protects the implant over time.
Your implant carries a 10-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what that includes as part of your written treatment plan.

Lucy was very reassuring to make me feel I found my new local dentist in Christine, thank you. I was cared about and the efficiency was fantastic.
