Your Implant Journey Starts Here

Let us walk you through our implant journey towards your new smile.

Step 1. Consultation & Design

Your journey starts with a friendly consultation where our skilled dental team assesses your needs, pinpoints the issue, and discusses your objectives. We’ll see if All On 4 Plus® Plus is right for you.

Feel free to ask any questions and express your concerns, as our team is here to help and ensure you’re well-informed. If you decide on the treatment, we’ll scan your jaw and start crafting customised dental implants while planning the ideal treatment just for you.

Step 2. Preparation for Implant Surgery

Once everything is organised, you’ll be required to return two weeks prior to the surgery to have your records taken in readiness for the implant surgery.

These may include, but not limited to photos of your teeth & smile, pre-operative instructions for the surgery and general anaesthetic and a prescription of antibiotics.

During this visit we will also address any other questions you may have.

Step 3. Implant Placement

During this visit dental implants will be placed as required with or without general anaesthesia. If you are having All On 4 Plus® Plus, your first set of teeth will be inserted on the day so you can go home with a brand new smile. Your final teeth will be inserted 2-3 days later.

If you opt for traditional full mouth implants, a healing period of 3 months is generally required before the final teeth can be inserted.

Step 4. Review & Follow Up Visits

A review of the surgery will be conducted 1-2 weeks post surgery to see how well you are healing.

Subsequently, you will need to come for regular checkup and hygiene visits every 3-6 months to ensure everything is healthy, clean and well maintained.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a replacement for a missing tooth. The implant which is made from titanium metal is bolted to your jaw line and acting as the root of the tooth.

Traditionally, a dentist would cut through gums and expose the bone to place a dental implant. Here at the Dental Implant & Sleep Centre, we use a more modern, computer-guided approach to tooth replacements. Our dental implant surgery is fast and accurate, with minimal invasion, helping you restore your smile as quickly as possible.

Types Of Dental Implant Treatments

There are three types of dental implants: single, multiple and All On 4 Plus® Plus.

Single Dental Implants

Single Implants

Single implants are individual, standalone replacements for missing teeth. This involves the surgical placement of a titanium post into the jawbone, followed by attaching a lifelike artificial tooth. This procedure is ideal if you are missing just one tooth and want to keep the stability of the remaining natural teeth.

Multiple Dental Implants

Multiple Implants

Multiple implants are used when you are missing multiple teeth. This involves placing multiple titanium posts into the jawbone and attaching artificial teeth to restore the gaps. This solution allows for replacement of several missing teeth with stable and aesthetically pleasing results, enabling you to to bite, chew, and smile confidently.

All On 4 Plus Dental Implants

All On 4 Plus® Implants

If you require a complete replacement for a full arch of missing teeth, the All-on-4 Plus implant is the ideal solution for you. This technique involves placing four dental implants in strategic locations in your jaw to support a full set of replacement teeth, giving you a functional and natural-looking smile.

Enhancing Your Smile with Computer Guided Dental Implants

The field of dental health has been dramatically transformed by technological advancements. At our practice, we leverage cutting-edge computer-guided dental implant technology to streamline and optimise the implant placement process, ensuring superior outcomes. By utilising these advanced techniques, we are able to deliver efficient procedures and achieve the best possible results.

During the implant process, a cone beam CT scan of your teeth is conducted (also commonly known as 3D scan), and the images are used to help our dentists to create an individualised implant treatment plan for you.

The computer-guided surgery enables dentists to manipulate and visualise your jawbone, as well as the surrounding tissues, to create an accurate treatment plan. These CT images show the bone availability, structures of the bones, adjacent teeth proximity, soft tissue thickness, and root anatomy.

The Benefits Of Guided Dental Implants

More Precise Implant
Placement

More Precise Implant Placement

Using a 3D surgical guide implants are placed with increased accuracy and precision. This means that the implant is positioned exactly where it needs to be to support the replacement tooth improving the overall success rate of the procedure and reducing the risk of complications.

Guided dental implant placement

Less Discomfort and Faster Recovery

With Guided dental implant placement the procedure will be less invasive often requiring only local anaesthetic. This leads to reduced discomfort for you during and after the treatment. The smaller incisions accelerate healing times helping you return to your normal activities in no time.

Guided dental implant placement with predictable results

More Predictable Results

Guided dental implant placement allows us to plan and visualise the procedure before it is performed. This can help to identify any potential issues and ensure that the implant is placed in the optimal position for the best results. This predictability can give you peace of mind, knowing your implant procedure is likely to be a success.
