Dental Implants in Hornsby and West Ryde
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial replacements for missing teeth that provide a permanent solution to restore your smile. The implant is a titanium screw that is embedded in the jawbone and acts as a standalone tooth root. A porcelain tooth is then placed on top of the implant to create a natural-looking replacement tooth.
What to Expect
The process for a patient who is a candidate for an implant begins with a referral for a 3D x-ray to assess the treatment plan. Once the patient chooses to go ahead, the implant is surgically placed, which takes about three months to heal. After healing, we’ll take a scan of the mouth and send it to a lab to create the crown.
The final insertion usually takes a few appointments, including checking for healing, taking out stitches, and ensuring a natural-looking result.
