Dental Implants in Melbourne CBD

Dental implants are a reliable and proven method of replacing one or more teeth, without affecting the health of the adjacent teeth. At Collins Dental Image, we use the latest dental technology to create dental implants that look and function like your natural teeth.

What Are the Benefits?

Rest assured that dental implants can look and feel just like your real teeth. They are individual fixtures and do not put stress on the adjacent teeth, so they are better for the health of your remaining natural teeth than other options. You can eat, talk and smile the same way you always have but without any worry you may have had about gaps, cracks or missing teeth.

What to Expect

We take X-rays and 3D images of the jaw bone in the area of the missing tooth to determine if the site is suitable for an implant, which is a titanium rod surgically placed under local anaesthesia. The bone fuses with the rod, creating an artificial tooth root, which supports your dental implant, crown or bridge.

When the surrounding bone is healed, we’ll place a crown or bridge on top to complete your restoration.

Why Choose Collins Dental Image?

Our practitioners work collaboratively to manage your smile to achieve optimal results. We can generally complete this service in-house, which makes care convenient for patients.

In some instances, the adjacent teeth need to be realigned before placing the implants, so they go into the position of your dental tooth roots, and we can do that as well. Our providers have decades of experience and advanced training to offer you a comprehensive approach to restoring your smile.

FAQ

How long does the process take?

Implants are custom-designed for your specific situation. The process is usually done in two to three stages. After we have examined you and taken X-rays, we can explain your individual treatment process.

Does it hurt?

The surgery is minor and done under local anaesthesia. Most patients find it painless.

How long do they last?

The implants can last indefinitely. The crowns on top can last 10-20 years, with proper home care combined with regular professional care at Collins Dental Image.
