If you have undergone a tooth extraction then you can also speak to us at the practice to request the replacement of your missing teeth with dental implants Melbourne. We will need to assess the health of your mouth and make sure there is sufficient jawbone to hold the implant in place. This will be assessed using X-rays and an intraoral scan of your mouth and we will plan the surgery accordingly, including the size of the implant necessary to replace your missing tooth.

 What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small titanium screws. They work as a root for a crown or a set of dentures by replacing the root of your missing tooth. Dental implants are placed directly into the bone socket of the missing tooth and thanks to biocompatibility the implant initiates a process known as osseointegration. Osteoblasts form around the implant and this helps it become securely fixed into place. As it is a natural process the implant can take 4 to 6 months to become permanently embedded into the bone, after which it can only be removed by rotating it out of the socket or by ultrasonic waves. Once it is firmly in place the implant can be topped with a crown or a set of dentures.

Advantages of dental implants

This helps restore the appearance of your smile and the function of your mouth.  It also prevents any further complications or damage to your remaining healthy teeth. Dental implant surgery helps keep your healthy teeth remain intact, unlike other tooth replacement methods which require preparation of adjacent teeth. It is important that you maintain good dental hygiene and that you visit the dentist on a regular basis, to make sure that your teeth remain clean and strong and that your gums are healthy, so that the implant may last for the rest of your life. Speak to us at High Dental Implants to book an appointment today and replace your missing teeth with implants.
