Dental Implants in Adelaide

WHAT ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS?

There are many ways to replace or cover up a missing tooth, but a dental implant in Adelaide is by far the most reliable and durable solution. A dental implant is a sophisticated titanium screw which is placed into the jaw bone to replace the root of a lost natural tooth. The dental implant fuses with the jawline to form a secure foundation for tooth replacement. This results in replacement teeth that look, feel and function just like natural teeth. At Brighton Dental Care, we specialise in professionally placing dental implants in Adelaide that will feel natural and last.

DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT PROCESS

After your initial consultation with one of our dentists, they can assess whether a dental implant in Adelaide would be a suitable solution for you. The ideal candidate for a dental implant is in good general and oral health. Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant, and good candidates have healthy gum tissues that are free of periodontal disease.

Scans and Xrays

Our dentists will take a series of scans and x-rays of your mouth to get an accurate measure of your bone structure and surrounding teeth.

Dental Implant Preparation

Once we have a clear results from your scans and x-rays, we will begin planning and creating your dental implant in Adelaide. This will take some time to craft a tooth that appears natural in shape and colour to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.

Dental Implant Placement

When your dental implant is ready for placement, you will undergo a minimally invasive procedure to implant the titanium screw for your dental implant into your jawbone. Once this screw is placed, your bone will begin to heal and regrow around the implant allowing it to remain implanted and secure for life.
