Dental implants are one of the best, healthiest ways to replace missing teeth.
People damage or lose teeth every day from injury, disease, or decay. A damaged tooth can destroy oral function and cause pain, and a missing tooth will leave a gap in your smile.
For many years, the only treatment options available for people with missing teeth were bridges or removable dentures, but dental implants have revolutionised the way we can treat tooth loss.
Tooth loss can have a dramatic impact on your oral and overall health, and can lead to a range of serious complications including:
If you’re missing one or more teeth, it’s important to replace them as soon as possible and we offer dental implant restoration to revitalise your oral health and complete your smile.
Dental implants closely mimic nature in that they start with a firm foundation – a titanium post inserted into the missing tooth’s socket. This post creates a prosthetic tooth root which bonds with natural bone tissue. On the top of the implant, we can place a beautiful prosthetic tooth that will look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth.
The placement of dental implants requires skill and experience. During the procedure, a metal post is implanted into the jaw. Nature then takes over and your bone beings to fuse with the post, creating a new “root”. Using dental implants, we work in conjunction with experienced local oral surgeons and periodontist to provide everything from replacement of a single tooth to a full-mouth rehabilitation. After treatment is completed, patients can resume their normal activities.To find out more about dental implants, or to book an appointment, please contact us today.

Dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution for missing teeth. While the exact lifespan of a dental implant can vary depending on factors such as oral hygiene, overall health, and the location of the implant, they can last for many years, even a lifetime with proper care.
Studies have shown that the success rate of dental implants is over 95% after five years and over 90% after 10 years. However, some individuals may experience implant failure due to factors such as infection, inadequate bone density, or improper placement.
It’s important to maintain good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing twice a day, flossing regularly, and visiting the dentist for regular check-ups, to ensure the longevity of your dental implants. Your dentist can also provide guidance on how to properly care for your implants and identify any potential issues early on.
Dental implants are a tooth replacement option that involves surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone. The post integrates with the bone tissue through a process called osseointegration, and a custom-made dental crown is attached to the post via an abutment. This provides a stable and long-lasting solution for tooth loss.
Dental implants are a highly successful and safe tooth replacement option that can provide a range of benefits, including improved oral function, enhanced appearance, and increased self-confidence. With proper planning, skilled surgical techniques, and good oral hygiene practices, most people can enjoy the benefits of dental implants with minimal risk of complications. If you are considering dental implants, talk to your dentist about the potential benefits and how this treatment can help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.
