Dental Implants
If you have one or more missing teeth then dental implant treatment can allow you to enjoy the functional and aesthetic benefits of full tooth replacement.

In the past, the options for tooth substitution were very limited and less than ideal. The developments of modern techniques and advancements in dental medicine have made dental implants one of the most popular dental procedures of today. 

Replacing missing teeth is important, not only for your appearance and self-confidence, but also for full mouth function and retaining total oral health. Many people are enjoying the positive outcomes associated with replacing a missing tooth in its entirety, including the root and the crown (above the gum-line) using dental implants.

Our experienced dental team in North Sydney has specialists in dental implants waiting to help you today.

What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a titanium fixture that is surgically placed into your jawbone. This fixture acts as an anchor-like support structure for a replacement tooth. This replacement tooth could be a crown, dental bridge or even a removable prosthesis – a full or partial denture if you require multiple tooth replacement. Receiving an implant is performed over a two-stage process, with joint treatment being conducted by our recommended implant specialist. 

What are the benefits of dental implants?

There are many benefits of dental implant treatment;

• Dental implants look, feel and function just like natural teeth
• They offer stability to replacement teeth – you can smile and eat with confidence
• They can eliminate the pain and embarrassment of ill-fitting dentures
• They help to maintain good bone and gum structure to support the neighbouring teeth

Most importantly, dental implants offer a proven success rate, providing you with the confidence and assurance that with the right oral care, your implant treatment will offer long-term benefits and results.

Planning Procedure
There are many considerations taken into account before the placement of a dental implant. Our North Sydney practice will work with you to develop solutions. Working closely with our specialist implant surgeon, we will conduct a complete oral and general health examination. This will include a full set of radiographs to determine the most ideal course of treatment.

Why replace missing teeth?
Tooth loss can have a negative effect on your function by causing bite-related problems. In addition, from an aesthetic point of view, the loss of teeth can have a psychological effect. You might feel too self-conscious to smile or talk with confidence. Regardless of the nature of problems related to tooth loss, dental implants will offer tooth replacement with excellent functional and aesthetic results.
