What are dental implants?

Dental implants Melbourne are small titanium screws which are placed into the bone socket of the missing tooth. We can replace one tooth with one dental implant or you can also replace adjacent teeth with one implant. Here at the surgery we can replace an entire arch of teeth with four dental implants. Each case is unique and we will carry out X-rays, CT scans and a three-dimensional scan when necessary to find out how to achieve best results for you.

You need healthy bone and gums for replacing your missing teeth with dental implants. Here at High Dental Implants Melbourne we offer bone grafting and gum grafting when necessary to allow you to undergo dental implant surgery successfully. The procedure itself takes approximately 4 to 6 months to complete after which you will have a sturdy replacement for your missing tooth. Speak to us at the practice today and let us find out how best to restore your missing teeth and how we can help you achieve a smile that you are proud to show off for the rest of your life.
