These implants form a strong bond with your jawbone and gum tissue, providing a sturdy foundation for various prosthetic teeth options such as bridges, crowns, and dentures.

FAQ’S About Dental Implant
What results can I expect from Dental Implant?
The outcome of your procedure is a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like your natural teeth! They enhance the natural beauty of your smile and improve your ability to chew and speak confidently. With time, patients tend to forget they had a missing tooth in the first place.
How long do dental implants last?
These act like your natural teeth. Therefore, it is affected by the same natural forces and environment of the mouth. Maintaining good healthy bones and gum is essential to the life of the treatment. The prosthesis or crown on top of it typically lasts 15 years before it requires changes, but it can sometimes last decades with proper care.
How do I look after my dental implant?
Practise good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing at least twice daily. We also recommend six monthly professional teeth cleanings and regular x-rays to visualise the bone integration of your treatment.
Wearing a mouthguard or splint at night will protect the restorations from the forces of clenching and grinding, and if you play contact sports, it is essential to keep your new teeth in great long-term shape.
Are there alternatives to dental implants?
Dental implants in Melbourne are by far the most functional, reliable, and natural-looking method of tooth replacement for most candidates. When they aren’t an option due to health complications, bone density concerns, or other compromising conditions, our team will explore alternative solutions for completing your smile.
Can dental implants fall out?
This treatment has a high success rate and integrates with the jawbone, making them a sturdy and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
However, like any medical procedure, there’s a slight possibility of complications. Poor oral hygiene, gum disease, or excessive force can cause them to become loose or even fall out. Regular check-ups for oral care can significantly reduce the risk and ensure longevity.

Can failed dental implants be replaced?
Yes, we can replace failed dental implants in Melbourne. However, the approach and success depend on the reason for the initial failure and the condition of the surrounding bone and tissue.
How much do implant dentures cost?
This treatment can cost between $15,000 – $40,000 per jaw. Prices can be affected by many factors, including the amount of bone available, the soft tissue and your smile goals, the number you need, and the type of material chosen for the final prosthesis.
