What are dental implants?
Dental implants boast a success rate of 90% to 95% over a span of more than ten years and are known to be durable for a lifetime when properly cared for. It’s important to keep in mind that while the implant itself can last indefinitely, the crown may require replacement at some point.
Dental implant procedure in North Fremantle
The dental implant procedure typically spans a few months. It starts with an initial consultation to assess your suitability and evaluate your teeth and overall health. As it’s a surgical procedure, it’s imperative to have good overall health to ensure successful treatment outcomes.
Here’s what you can expect during the dental implant procedure:
Tailored treatment plan
Our team at Superior Smiles will create a personalised treatment plan based on your evaluation. This plan will detail the number of implants required, their placement locations, and any additional procedures needed, such as dental cleaning, cavity filling, or bone grafting. It’s a chance for you to ask all of your questions, and you should leave feeling confident in
Implant placement
During your implant appointment, our dentist will make an incision in the gum tissue to access the jawbone, place the implant, and then close the gum tissue. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort, with various sedation options available for those with dental anxiety. If you’re feeling nervous, please tell our dental team – we’re here to support you.
Healing period
Following implant placement, there is a healing phase known as osseointegration, during which the implants bond with the surrounding bone tissue. This process can take several months, during which you will be provided with temporary crowns or bridges to maintain function and aesthetics.
Final Restoration
Once the gums have healed, we will take impressions or digital scans of your mouth to create the final restorations. These custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures are then fitted, restoring both function and appearance for your new smile.
Regular follow-up appointments are crucial for monitoring the healing process. These appointments ensure the proper function and fit of the restorations and address any concerns or complications that may arise.
How painful are dental implants?
Following the completion of the dental implant procedure and the wearing off of anesthesia, patients typically experience some discomfort.
Common side effects include soreness in the teeth, gums, and jaw around the treated area. While noticeable, many patients report that the discomfort is actually less severe than expected.
By adhering to straightforward post-surgical care instructions, most patients can significantly reduce discomfort during their dental implant recovery period.
Dental implants cost
We are happy to offer you a complimentary consultation to discuss pricing. As a ballpark figure, you can expect to budget between $5,000-$6,000 for a single implant with a crown.
When should you consider getting a dental implant?
You should consider getting a dental implant if you have one or more missing teeth and are looking for a permanent solution to restore your smile and oral function.
Dental implants are ideal when you:
- Are missing teeth: You have a gap from a lost tooth or teeth that affects your ability to chew, speak, or impacts your smile.
- Have healthy gums: Your gums are healthy and free of severe periodontal disease, which could interfere with the implant’s success.
- Have adequate bone density: You have sufficient bone density in your jaw to support the implant. If bone density is insufficient, bone grafting might be required.
- Good overall health: You are in good general health and can undergo minor surgery without complications.
- Want a long-term solution: You are seeking a long-term, durable solution compared to removable dentures or bridges, which may need frequent adjustments or replacements. 6. Have a commitment to oral hygiene: You are willing to maintain good oral hygiene and follow-up care to ensure the longevity of the implant
