A long-lasting, natural-looking solution for one or more missing teeth.
Missing teeth can impact everything from your appearance and confidence to how you eat and speak. Dental implants offer a permanent, reliable way to replace missing teeth—restoring your smile’s look, feel, and function. At Crown Dental Group, we provide high-quality dental implant treatments using modern technology and personalised care.
Get started
Once integrated with the jawbone, dental implants are designed to support comfortable eating and speaking in a way that aims to replicate the function of a natural tooth.
When a tooth is lost, the surrounding bone can begin to deteriorate. Dental implants placed into the jawbone may help reduce the rate of bone loss, supporting the facial structure over time.
Unlike dental bridges, an implant stands independently. The teeth on either side of the gap do not need to be prepared or altered as part of the process.
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, dental implants are designed to be a long-lasting tooth replacement option. Longevity depends on individual factors, including oral hygiene and bone health.
Implant-supported restorations are cared for like natural teeth with regular brushing and flossing, which may be more straightforward than maintaining removable dentures.
Unlike removable dentures, implants are fixed in position and do not rely on adhesives or clasps to stay in place.
Your dentist examines your teeth, gums, and jawbone. A CBCT scan may be taken to assess bone density and determine suitability. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss what to expect.
A detailed plan is developed outlining the approach, stages, and timeframes. If bone grafting is required prior to implant placement, this will be discussed at this stage.
The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone. Oral sedation and IV sedation are available at Crown Dental Group for patients who prefer additional support. Most patients find the process manageable with appropriate anaesthesia.
The implant integrates with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. This healing period typically takes several months and is a critical stage of the overall treatment.
Once healed, the final restoration, whether a dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture, is attached and fabricated to complement your natural teeth.
Periodic check-ups allow your dentist to monitor the implant and surrounding tissues. Your dentist will discuss what to expect at each stage during your initial consultation.
Patient smile images. AHPRA rules apply — genuine patients, consistent lighting and angles, outcomes disclaimer required.
Individual outcomes vary. Images shown are of actual patients and are reproduced with consent. Results depend on individual clinical factors and cannot be guaranteed.
Most healthy adults with adequate bone levels are suitable. We’ll carry out a full consultation and 3D imaging to assess your suitability.
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, dental implants can last decades—often a lifetime.
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, and most patients report minimal discomfort. We’ll also guide you through your aftercare for a smooth recovery.
The timeline varies between patients. From the initial consultation through to fitting the final crown, the process can take several months. Factors such as the need for bone grafting or the complexity of the case will affect the overall timeframe. Crown Dental Group will give you a clearer estimate after your assessment.
