Dental Implants Ivanhoe

If you have lost your natural teeth, you miss other things too – your beautiful smile and ability to eat the food you desire. To regain your natural smile, the Ivanhoe dentists at Prime Dental Group are here to help you. We have already helped hundreds of patients all over Ivanhoe with affordable, long-lasting and quality tooth implants. Our permanent yet artificial tooth replacement will make you feel like you have your own natural tooth back again.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a titanium screw that is surgically placed into the jawbone to support an artificial tooth. It consists of three components – the titanium implant post, a healing cap called abutment that connects the artificial tooth to the implant post and the artificial tooth or dental crown. Our dentists in Ivanhoe perform this procedure under local anaesthesia. It takes around 3 to 6 months to complete this procedure, depending on your individual dental condition.

Why Choose Dental Implants Over Other Tooth Replacement Methods?

At Prime Dental Group, we recommend dental implants to our patients for the following reasons:
• Aesthetics – dental implants resemble and fit in the gum in the same way as your natural tooth.
• Permanent – dental implants are a permanent solution and do not require removal.
• Protect Surrounding Teeth – dental implants will protect the adjacent teeth and prevent them from over-erupting, tilting and migrating.
• Stop Bone Loss – dental implants prevent the bone from shrinking and help maintaining the facial structure.
Though it can be tempting to overlook a missing tooth, especially if it is out of sight, the tooth loss can lead to a number of dental problems and costly dental treatments. So, if you are missing one or more teeth, visit our dental clinic near me in Ivanhoe to get the dental implants procedure done. For more information, feel free to give us a call on (03) 9440 9430.
