Dental Implants

Missing teeth can often affect not only your appearance but also your quality of life and ability to do everyday tasks.

However, you do not have to give up on your favourite food or restrain from speaking/singing freely just because you have missing teeth. Specialist Dental Group uses the latest technology to create dental implants that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Whether it is a result of extensive cavities, severe injury, an unfortunate accident, or periodontal (gum) disease, our dental specialists can provide an accurate consultation on whether this is a suitable treatment option for you.

Understanding How Dental Implants Can Change Your Life

A dental implant is a man-made foundation – usually in the form of a titanium screw – that is placed into the jawbone to serve as a replacement for the missing tooth’s root. It becomes the anchor point for the new teeth (implant crown).

This procedure offers the patient a number of benefits:

• Dental implants are made to last for a lifetime
• Seamless integration with existing, natural teeth
• The only tooth replacement method that prevents bone loss in the jaw
• Only maintenance required is daily oral care and visit to the dentist twice a year
• Eat, chew, and speak regularly as per normal

Generally, a healing period of three months is needed before the final crown is seated. Made using zirconia, a very strong and translucent material, these crowns are indistinguishable from the rest of your teeth in all but the most careful inspections.
