Dental Implants & Restorative Dentistry · Gloucester

Planned by Souad.
Placed by Guy.
Designed to last decades.

At Cotteswold House, your implant is designed by two clinicians who each own a different part of the outcome, and who've been working together long enough to know exactly where one's job ends and the other's begins. No generalism. Just dentistry done properly, the first time.

You're not alone

Living with missing or damaged teeth affects more than you think

These are the concerns we hear from patients every day, and the reason we offer a complimentary consultation to talk through your options.

Lost confidence

Avoiding photos, covering your mouth when you laugh, or feeling self-conscious in social situations.

Difficulty eating

Struggling with certain foods, favouring one side of your mouth, or avoiding meals you enjoy.

Speech changes

Noticing differences in how you speak or pronounce certain words since losing or damaging teeth.

Further damage

Worn or broken teeth can crack further, and gaps allow neighbouring teeth to drift and shift over time.

Implant treatments we offer

From a single tooth to a full arch: we'll find the right fit

Every patient's situation is different. At your complimentary consultation, Jess will help you understand which approach makes clinical and practical sense for you, before you commit to anything.

Implant-Retained Bridges

Where two or more adjacent teeth are missing, implants can anchor a fixed bridge, without touching the healthy teeth on either side. A more stable long-term option than a conventional bridge, and far more comfortable than a partial denture.

Best for: Replacing several adjacent missing teeth with a fixed, permanent result

Implant Dentures

A full or partial denture secured to implant posts, so it stays firmly in place: no adhesives, no movement when you eat or speak. Implant dentures give you the stability and confidence of fixed teeth, with a more accessible cost than a full arch restoration.

Best for: Patients with multiple missing teeth who want a more secure alternative to traditional dentures

All-on-4 / All-on-6

A full arch of teeth, upper or lower, supported by four or six strategically placed implants. A fixed, permanent result that replaces every tooth in an arch without requiring an implant for each one. Planned in detail by Guy and Souad together before any surgery begins.

Best for: Patients missing all or most teeth in an arch who want a fixed, long-lasting result

The Cotteswold House Way

Health comes first. Always.

Before we place anything, we look at why you lost the tooth in the first place.

Most practices treat the gap. We treat the mouth.

The bacteria responsible for gum disease and tooth loss don't disappear on their own. If they're still present when an implant is placed, they will attack it the same way they attacked your natural teeth. It's one of the most common reasons implants fail. It's also entirely avoidable.

The Cotteswold House Way starts with your foundations: your gum health, your bone, your body's ability to heal. We address what's there before we add what's missing. Only when the environment is right do we begin to rebuild.

The result is an implant that has every reason to last.

Safe Predictable Long-lasting
1

Thorough assessment

We assess the full picture: gum health, bone levels, bite, and any existing disease. Not just the gap you want filling. Problems we find here change the treatment plan. That's the point.

2

Stabilise before we treat

If gum disease or harmful bacteria are present, we treat them first. An implant placed into an unhealthy mouth is an implant under threat from day one. We don't take that risk with your treatment or your money.

3

Prepare the site properly

Where bone volume has reduced (which is common after a tooth has been missing for some time), we'll advise on bone grafting or other preparation if it's needed to give your implant the best possible foundation.

4

Plan, then place

Once your mouth is healthy and your case is fully mapped, digitally, by both Guy and Souad, placement goes ahead with confidence. Nothing is rushed. Everything is ready.

What to expect

The implant journey, step by step

Dental implants are carried out in carefully planned stages, with healing time between each. Here's what the process typically looks like.

1

Consultation

A thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and bite to understand what needs addressing and whether implants are right for you.

2

Treatment Planning: The Cotteswold House Way

Souad and Guy review your case together. The final crown is designed first, so placement serves the restoration, not the other way around. 3D imaging maps your jaw before any treatment begins.

3

Implant Placement

The titanium implant is placed into your jawbone. Sedation is available for nervous patients or longer treatments.

4

Final Restoration

Once healed, your beautiful new permanent tooth or teeth are fitted: natural-looking, durable, and designed to last a lifetime.

The Cotteswold House Way

One plan. Two disciplines. No compromises.

Most dental implants are placed by one clinician who plans the case, places the post, and fits the crown. They're the surgeon, the designer, and the quality check. All at once..

At Cotteswold House, we do it differently.

Your implant is planned by Souad Maddi, a cosmetic and complex restorative dentist whose focus is the crown, the bite, and the long-term aesthetic outcome. The placement is carried out by Guy Bailey, an implant surgeon who has been placing implants since 2014, trained across the UK, Ireland, and Switzerland, and is a member of the International Team for Implantology.

They work together from day one. That means the final result is built into the plan before a single incision is made.

It's a more considered approach. More thorough than a single clinician working alone. And it produces better outcomes. That's the Cotteswold House Way.

The crown is designed before the implant is placed

Souad designs the final restoration first, so Guy's placement serves the crown, not the other way around. That precision at the planning stage is what produces a result that looks natural and lasts.

Digital planning before any surgery

Using 3D imaging and digital scans, Guy and Souad map the exact position, angle, and depth of each implant before treatment begins. No guesswork. A restoration that fits the first time.

Two disciplines checking each other's work

Guy asks: is this placement precise, stable, and safe? Souad asks: does this foundation produce a crown that looks right, functions correctly, and will still be performing in 15 years? Both questions get answered before you sit in the chair.

The best components, specified by name

Guy is Straumann-trained and works exclusively with original Straumann componentry. Not equivalents. Not alternatives.. Souad's restorative work is chosen for longevity. You'll know exactly what you're getting and why it costs what it does.

Meet the team

Souad plans it. Guy places it. You get a better outcome.

When your case comes to Cotteswold House, it goes to two clinicians with different roles in the same outcome: a restorative dentist and an implant surgeon, working together from first plan to final crown. Neither makes a significant decision without the other.

Dr Souad Maddi
Cosmetic and Complex Restorative Dentist
GDC: 319944

Souad's focus is cosmetic and complex restorative dentistry: what your teeth should look like, how they should function, and how they'll hold up over time. For implant patients, she works alongside Guy at the planning stage, designing the final crown and restoration before any surgery takes place. Her training in fixed and removable restorative techniques means the aesthetic and functional outcome is considered from the very first conversation, not retrofitted at the end.

Not a process. A philosophy.

Most practices treat implant planning and implant placement as one job. We've always seen them as two. Souad approaches your case from the restorative end: what your crown should look like, how your bite needs to work, what the long-term picture is. Guy approaches from the surgical end: placement precision, bone quality, timing, sedation where needed.

For complex cases (multiple teeth, full-arch restoration, significant bone considerations), this means your treatment is planned with both surgical and restorative outcomes in mind before you sit in the chair. For straightforward cases, it means you benefit from that same rigour without paying more for it.

★★★★★ "

Guy Bailey is clearly a very competent and professional dentist. But more than that he communicates clearly, explaining what he is doing in terms I understand, offering options, and adapting his plan where needed. He's chatty and friendly which makes the process easy and stress free.

Common questions

FAQs

Dental implants at Cotteswold House start from £3,995. The final cost depends on your individual case: the number of implants, any preparatory work required, and the complexity of the restoration planned by Souad.

Before any treatment begins, a full clinical assessment including scans and X-rays is £100. This gives Guy and Souad the complete picture of your bone levels, gum health, and bite before making any recommendations.

Not ready to commit to an assessment yet? Your first step is a complimentary consultation with Jess, our Patient Coordinator. She'll talk through your situation, explain what treatment might look like, and give you a clear sense of costs before you decide whether to go further.

If you do proceed, we offer 0% finance over 3 to 24 months to spread the cost interest-free. Longer finance terms of up to five years are also available if you need more time, though these carry interest. We'll talk through all the options at your consultation.
That's exactly what we'll determine together during your consultation. Factors like the condition of your remaining teeth, your jawbone health, your budget, and your lifestyle all play a role. We'll guide you through the decision with clear, honest information, and you can take as much time as you need before deciding.
Absolutely not. Our reputation is built on providing treatment recommendations based on what's clinically appropriate and what matters to you. We present options. You decide..
Not necessarily. While implants offer significant advantages, bridges and dentures are excellent solutions for many patients. The best option depends on your individual circumstances: bone health, remaining teeth, budget, and lifestyle all factor in.
You'll receive local anaesthetic for the procedure. For nervous patients or longer treatments, Guy also offers IV sedation: you remain conscious but in a deeply relaxed state, and most patients remember very little of the procedure.
We have effective alternatives at a range of price points: bridges, dentures, and composite bonding can all produce excellent results. We also offer 0% finance to help spread the cost of treatment over time. We'll always make sure you know all your options.
Usually, yes. Even where bone volume has reduced over time, options like bone grafting may make implants possible. We'll assess this thoroughly at your consultation and be honest about what's achievable in your case.
