Dental Implants

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the root portion of a missing tooth and are bonded to the jaw to secure a replacement tooth. Implants can be used to replace one or many missing teeth or to make a denture more stable.

At our clinic, East Melbourne implant dentists use Swiss-made STRAUMANN implants, trusted worldwide for their precision and durability.

How do Dental Implants Work?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the root portion of a missing tooth. The implant bonds to the jaw bone and becomes the base for the replacement tooth. Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth.

The process of tooth replacement in East Melbourne with implants is straightforward:

• Posts are surgically placed below the gums
• Artificial teeth, grouped on a bridge, are mounted to the posts
• Implants offer a very stable and secure fit
• Implants serve as a base for single replacement teeth

Why choose Dental Implants East Melbourne?

Clinical studies have proven that implants impart the greatest comfort and quality of life, as the method to replace lost teeth. Dentures and bridges mounted to implants won’t slip or shift in your mouth, therefore your ability to eat and speak are not affected.

Implants help to prevent bone loss in the jaw and no adjacent teeth need to be prepared or ground down to hold your new replacement tooth/teeth in place.

How long do they last?

With proper care, dental implants with our East Melbourne dentist can last a lifetime depending on the care you put into keeping your teeth and gums healthy.
