What are dental implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts with specially activated surfaces. They are placed (implanted) in your jawbone to function in a similar way to a natural tooth root. Your bone grows onto the implants in a process called osseointegration.  After a few months, the implants will form a permanent part of your body.

This is a widely used practice to turn a weak area of the mouth into a strong functional area.

If you would like to inquire or learn more about dental implants please make a booking or give us a call. We are happy to explain them in more detail if required.

Assure you ring prior your visit to confirm. Travelled a distance at early hours am to get to appointment with 10-15 minutes late they cancelled the extraction and left my spouse with a rather huge unpleasant face :/ not happy at all. Bare in mind the ineradicable traffic to assure you get to your appointment you may have to leave over 2hr ahead of time if travelling distance like ourselves. Happy Friday to some.

I went and saw dr Dr Genevieve as my tooth was causing me discomfort, turns out it was a wisdom tooth. She was very professional and friendly which made me feel better as I was a bit nervous. Very happy with this dentist and I would recommend it to other people. :) thanks again

These are the most common questions asked about dental implants

What Can I Eat After Dental Implant Surgery?2021-10-27T02:30:30+00:00

For two days following your surgery, drink liquids and consume soft foods only like:

  • Eggnog
  • Milkshakes
  • Cooked cereals
  • Yogurt
  • Smooth soups
  • Cottage cheese
  • Ice cream
  • Mashed potatoes
  • Protein shakes
  • Fruit smoothies
  • Refried beans
  • Pudding

On day three following your surgery, eat soft foods that don’t require much chewing like:

  • Cooked noodles
  • Macaroni and cheese
  • Soft sandwiches
  • Poached, soft-boiled or scrambled eggs

Avoid crunchy or tough foods like rice, pizza, hamburgers, and popcorn. Avoid acidic and spicy foods. Most individuals resume their regular diet seven days after their surgery.

What Is the Upside of Dental Implants?2021-10-27T02:31:28+00:00

Fortunately, humans get two sets of teeth.

When you lose a single tooth or multiple teeth because of gum disease or dental decay, implants can now replace them and serve as your third set of fixed teeth.

Implants have many upsides, including:

  • They improve your appearance
  • They improve your confidence
  • They can last a lifetime
  • They allow you to have an active lifestyle
  • They improve your ability to eat the foods you like
  • You no longer have to worry about your teeth
  • They never decay because they’re made of titanium

Dental implants, in general, have an up to 98 percent success rate.

How Soon After a Tooth Extraction Can You Have an Implant?2021-10-27T02:32:30+00:00

The dentist places dental implants in your jaw by making precise holes in your bone so that they fit snuggly.

They do this where your teeth are missing but where you have adequate bone to hold the dental implants.

In some cases, it’s possible for them to place dental implants on the same day your dentist extracts your teeth.

Typically, however, it takes around three to six months of healing before you can have your implant placed.

How Long Do Implants Last?2021-10-27T02:33:41+00:00

Dental implants can last a lifetime if you take care of them properly by regularly brushing, flossing, and following your dentist’s recommendations.

While your dentist can’t guarantee the lifetime success of an implant, they can provide you with suggestions and guidelines on how to take good care of your teeth. They’ll base these guidelines on:

  • Your genetic history
  • Proper hygiene procedures
  • Your nutritional habits

Following the guidelines, your dentist gives you will help ensure your implant has the best chance of lasting a lifetime.
