Complete Dental Implants in Perth

Dental implants are biocompatible tooth restorations made to imitate the function of natural tooth roots. When you have a missing tooth, an implant can replace it and support a permanent crown, bridge or denture. Dental implants are the perfect alternative to traditional bridges and partial dentures because they can function independently of the other teeth.

Healthier for Your Smile

New bone forms around dental implants, which then fuses them permanently in place. This enhances the natural shape of the jaw, and prevents the “sunken in” facial profile that is typically associated with tooth loss. Living with implants is easier than wearing a removable denture, because an implant is designed to:

• Provide a permanent alternative
• Be stronger than natural teeth
• Blend in with the teeth around it
• Last for life
• Strengthen the bone

The Dental Implant Process

When you get implants, there will be a few different appointments involved, including surgical placement of the implant root, the healing period, and the final reconstruction. Although implant placement requires a small surgery, it is usually easier and more comfortable than having a tooth pulled out. Most of our patients are surprised at how quick and straightforward the surgery actually is. After the surgery, the implant integrates with the bone over the next few months, and you will have to wear a temporary restoration for aesthetic purposes. About three to six months later, we will fix the permanent crown, bridge or denture in place.
