A dental implant is a titanium screw surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Once integrated with the bone, the implant supports a custom crown, bridge or denture. Implants are widely regarded as the most predictable and long-lasting option for replacing missing teeth, with success rates above 95% in healthy patients. They are placed by dentists with implant training, periodontists and oral surgeons in Burwood Heights NSW 2136.
Getting a dental implant typically takes 3 to 6 months from start to finish. The process begins with a consultation and 3D scan to plan the procedure. The implant is then surgically placed under local anaesthesia, after which 3 to 4 months are needed for the implant to fuse with the bone (osseointegration). Once integration is complete, an abutment and crown are fitted to complete the restoration. Some cases qualify for "immediate load" implants where a temporary tooth is placed on the same day.
Most adults with one or more missing teeth are suitable candidates for dental implants. Successful implant treatment requires adequate jawbone density, healthy gums and good general health. Patients with significant bone loss may need a bone graft before implants can be placed. A consultation with an implant dentist in Burwood Heights NSW 2136 will involve X-rays or a 3D scan to assess your suitability.
