Dental Implants

Dental Implants in Canterbury

If you have a severely damaged or missing tooth, dental implants offer a natural, long-lasting solution to restore your smile and rebuild your confidence.

While we always try to treat natural teeth, same-day crowns dental implants can be used to recover the function and aesthetics of your mouth when other restorative treatments are no longer possible. Our teeth implants are administered by medically-qualified dentists with decades of experience, so you can expect the highest standards of care during treatment.

Teeth implants from Melbourne’s leading practice

Our dental implants are custom-designed to fill gaps left by missing or extremely damaged teeth, and will restore symmetry to your smile. If your tooth is damaged beyond the point of restoration by a dental crown, we’ll find the best solution from a range of options including conventional implants, same-day crowns, immediate implants and bone grafts. Our treatments are quick, relatively pain-free, and deliver permanent results with appropriate care and maintenance.

 

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a replacement for the root or roots of a tooth. Like natural tooth roots, implants are secured into the jawbone and are not visible once placed. They are used to secure crowns (part of the tooth that is seen in the mouth), bridges or dentures. They are made of titanium, which is lightweight, strong and biocompatible (meaning it is not rejected by the body). Titanium is the most widely used metal in both dental and other bone implants, such as hip replacements.

What to expect from dental implants

We begin with an initial consultation and x-ray scan of the mouth to create a tailored treatment plan for your dental implants. At a later date, your dentist will make space for your implants in a process known as bone grafting before inserting the titanium material into the implant site. Once your artificial implant has grown into the jawbone, we’ll be able to fit the abutment and, after, your replacement tooth. The entire process can last anywhere between a couple of weeks or several months.
