Dental Implants Newcastle
Restoring Teeth and Confidence
Implant dentistry is a specialised branch of dentistry that focuses on the placement and restoration of dental implants. Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically implanted into the jawbone to serve as replacements for missing teeth. They provide a strong foundation for the attachment of artificial teeth, such as dental crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implant dentistry offers a permanent and natural-looking solution to replace missing teeth and restore oral function.
Why might a person need implant dentistry?
Missing Teeth
Dental implants are an ideal solution for individuals with one or more missing teeth. They provide a permanent and fixed replacement that mimics the look, feel, and function of natural teeth. Implants not only restore your smile’s aesthetics but also prevent bone loss and maintain proper dental alignment.
Improved Chewing and Speaking
Missing teeth can make it challenging to chew certain foods properly and may even affect speech clarity. By restoring your ability to bite and chew with ease, dental implants enable you to relish a diverse and nourishing diet. They also improve speech by providing stability for the tongue and lips.
Bone Preservation
When a tooth is lost, the underlying jawbone can deteriorate over time due to a lack of stimulation. Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving its integrity. This is crucial for maintaining a youthful facial structure and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting.
Enhanced Comfort and Stability
Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are firmly anchored in the jawbone, providing stability and eliminating the discomfort associated with loose or ill-fitting dentures. Implants also eliminate the need for messy adhesives and allow you to speak and eat with confidence.
Long-Term Solution
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution for tooth replacement. With appropriate care and maintenance, dental implants have the potential to last a lifetime. This makes implants a cost-effective choice in the long run, as they eliminate the need for frequent replacements or adjustments associated with other tooth replacement options.

Frequently Asked Questions
The placement of dental implants is typically performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring a painless experience during the procedure. Some mild discomfort or swelling may occur in the days following the surgery, but this can be managed with prescribed pain medication and proper post-operative care.
The timeline for completing dental implants can vary depending on individual cases. After the implant placement surgery, a healing period of a few months is typically required for osseointegration (fusion of the implant with the jawbone). Subsequently, the implant is affixed to the final restoration, such as a crown or bridge.
Dental implants are suitable for many individuals with missing teeth, but a thorough evaluation is necessary to determine your eligibility. Various aspects, including general health, density of the jawbone, and oral hygiene, contribute to evaluating eligibility for dental implants. Our implant dentists will assess your specific situation and recommend the best treatment options for you.
Maintaining dental implants involves comparable care to that of natural teeth. Good oral hygiene practises, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, are essential for maintaining the health and longevity of your implants. Our team will provide you with specific instructions on how to care for your implants and answer any questions you may have.
Dental insurance coverage for dental implants varies, as it depends on the insurance plan and the specific terms of coverage. Our knowledgeable team will work closely with you to understand your insurance benefits and explore available financing options to make dental implants more accessible and affordable.
