The
Saint James Hospital Group provides a comprehensive range of healthcare services including dental procedures.
Saint James Hospital is ranked amongst the top private healthcare organisations on the Maltese Islands.
The Dental & Implantology Unit offers an impeccable quality service using state-of-the-art equipment. Quality treatment, patient safety and the most tangible hygiene standards are our guiding principles.
Dental procedures and treatments
Aesthetically pleasing teeth enhance the beauty of a smile. Scientific research has led to the development of materials and techniques that allow dental surgeons to help you achieve a natural looking beautiful smile.
Patients with decayed, discoloured or absent teeth may be treated by various methods in a safe, state-of-the-art unit to achieve a full smile again. Treatments available within the Dental and Implantology Unit include:
Preventive Dentistry
Probably the most important aspect of dentistry, prevention is mainly patient education, so appointments within the unit are not rushed to allow the specialist dental surgeon to discuss preventive techniques. These include oral health screening, oral hygiene instruction, fissure sealants, preventive restoration and mouth guards for sports.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Restoring teeth to their natural look is both challenging and rewarding. Within the Dental and Implantology Unit the latest techniques and materials are used to restore teeth with tooth coloured fillings. These include porcelain veneers (facings), all ceramic crowns, bonded crowns, bridges (conventional or adhesive) and composite restorations.
The unit's close working relationship with dental technologists ensures that the highest standards of function and aesthetics are achieved. The unit has daylight corrected lighting fitted to enhance colour matching.
Root Canal Treatment
This involves the cleaning, shaping and filling of a tooth nerve chamber and roots. Recent developments have dramatically improved the long-term success rate of root fillings and these are utilised within the unit.
Periodontology
Gum disease may result in the early loss of otherwise healthy teeth. Its detection, treatment and monitoring halts the disease and it may be possible to reverse the bone loss by use of specialised techniques (Guided Tissue Regeneration).
Implantology
One of the greatest developments in modern dentistry, implants are titanium screws which are gently placed into the jaw bone to replace the roots of absent teeth. The bone heals around the implant fusing with it in a process termed osseointegration.
This versatile treatment may be used to replace absent single or multiple teeth as well as the complete dentition. The options available are vast and each patient may be offered a variety of treatments to reflect the treatment time and price. Implants may help patients regain the confidence to laugh and socialise again.
Oral Surgery
Procedures such as removal of wisdom teeth, buried roots, cysts or apicectomies are undertaken by a specialist in oral surgery under local anaesthesia, with or without the use of intravenous sedation. The unit has a dedicated surgical theatre for oral surgery procedures requiring sedation.
It is also possible to have the same surgery performed under general anaesthesia within the main hospital theatres. Advanced procedures (such as fractures, bone grafting for implants, tumours) are also treated, whilst complex cases are managed by a team of head and neck surgeons.
Orthodontics
A visiting specialist in orthodontics treats both children and adults. Crooked teeth are straightened with mainly fixed appliances. Adult patients frequently require orthodontic treatment to correct the position of teeth prior to fixing the teeth with crown and bridgework or implants.

Malta
Malta’s rich history takes us back through millennia, with a backdrop of ports and bastions which stand witness to the way it matured in becoming the benchmark of hospitality and loyalty, of skill and trust. Also a member of the European Union, the country’s strategic position in the heart of the Mediterranean, has allowed Malta to develop as a popular travelling location. The Maltese people are known to be a warm and hospitable community. The country is bi-lingual having English as the second language. This means that all the hospital staff, surgeons, nurses, hotel staff, taxi drivers - effectively all the people you will come in touch with - speak and write English fluently.
