If you’re facing the challenge of a single missing tooth, multiple missing teeth, or need to undergo a tooth extraction, you’ve likely considered various options for restoring both function and aesthetics to your smile. Among these, dental implants are the next best thing after natural teeth.
At Central Dental Frankston, we offer single and multiple dental implants using approved techniques and the latest technology, including 3D bone scans, surgical guides, and grafting. Discover a modern, reliable solution that closely mimics natural teeth in both appearance and functionality with dental implants.
Dental implants dental prosthetics containing titanium screws surgically inserted into the jawbone in the area of a missing tooth or teeth, acting as anchors for an artificial dental crown placed on top. Over time, the jawbone grows around the implant to secure it in place. They are custom made to feel and function as natural teeth.
Having provided trusted and top-quality dental care to the Frankston community for years, we’re committed to maintaining our reputation for excellence. We use only the best and most genuine materials, combined with modern technology and techniques, to ensure superior success rates, precision, and comfort. Regular care following the instructions we provide after your treatment, along with routine follow-up dental appointments, can help ensure the longevity of your dental implants.
If you are considering tooth replacement options, why not book an appointment today to explore your options and receive a tailored treatment plan?
There are numerous tooth replacement options, but none compare to dental implants. If you are a suitable candidate, the major benefits of dental implants include:
Compared to alternatives like dentures and bridges, dental implants can last for many years, and in some cases, even a lifetime. The top visible part, however, may need replacement every 5 to 15 years.
Dental implants are surgically inserted and fused into the jawbone, just as a natural tooth root would. This provides stability and avoids the risk of falling off while speaking, eating or chewing.
Dental implants are designed to restore aesthetics and functionality of missing tooth or teeth. They can maintain facial features and restore bite, withstanding pressure to a similar level of natural healthy teeth.
The root of a tooth stimulates the jawbone, helping to prevent bone loss. However, when a tooth is extracted, the jawbone gradually begins to recede. A dental implant, which integrates with the jawbone, can substitute for the natural tooth root, thus preserving the jawbone - a benefit that cannot be achieved with dentures or bridges.
Taking care of your dental implants is similar to that of your natural teeth. There is no need for removal or special cleaning instructions. We will equip you with post operative and routine maintenance instructions to increase their longevity.
At Central Dental Frankston, we are committed to continuous improvement, ensuring that when patients walk through our doors, they receive the best techniques and technology from a genuinely caring and qualified dental team.
With on-site X-ray facilities, our patients don’t need to travel elsewhere or wait for scans. During your initial consultation, we’ll perform an advanced diagnostic using our CBCT scanner to thoroughly assess your oral health and determine your suitability for dental implants. If your bone density and overall health are favourable, and you choose to proceed with dental implant treatment, we will surgically place the implant into your jawbone using advanced laser technology. Laser dentistry offers greater precision, minimal bleeding, faster healing times, and a significantly reduced risk of infection.
After implant placement, we employ a revolutionary guided bone regeneration technique known as Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF). This technique uses your own blood plasma to accelerate bone and gum tissue regeneration, further reducing the risk of complications and enhancing the success of your dental implants.
Can You Put a Price on Your Happiness?
We understand that the cost of dental implants is a significant concern for many. That’s why we offer affordable options without compromising our standard of excellence.
The price of dental implants can vary based on several factors, including the complexity of your case, the number and type of implants needed, and whether additional treatments are required. We recommend booking an initial consultation so we can thoroughly assess your oral health, understand your needs and circumstances, and offer options that are best suited to you, along with flexible payment plans.
One of the reasons dental implants are favoured by many over other tooth replacement options is their longevity. While they can be a significant investment, with proper care, regular follow-up dental appointments, and good oral hygiene, dental implants can last a lifetime. Only the top visible part, the dental crown, may need replacement every 10-15 years or even longer.
After your treatment, we will provide you with at-home care instructions and discuss the follow-up appointments.
The ideal age for receiving dental implants is when the jawbone is fully developed, usually in the late teens or early twenties. However, age alone does not determine eligibility. Other factors, such as overall oral health, general health, lifestyle, medications, and sufficient bone density, are also considered when determining eligibility for dental implants.
If you’re considering getting a dental implant, why not book an appointment today? We can fully assess your situation and offer you the available options to restore your smile.
The ideal time to get a dental implant after tooth loss depends on the individual circumstance. In some cases, immediate implant placement is possible, while for others, the extraction site may need to fully heal before undergoing dental implant surgery. If you’ve been missing a tooth for some time, we may be able to start the process right away if your oral and general health are suitable.
Please book an initial implant consultation so we can thoroughly assess your situation and offer a tailored plan.
While minimal discomfort and temporary soreness after surgery are normal, the procedure itself is not painful, thanks to our modern technology and techniques.
At Central Dental Frankston, we use laser surgery, which offers better precision and is less invasive than traditional methods. This significantly reduces the risk of infection, minimises bleeding, and shortens the healing time. Additionally, our revolutionary Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) technique, applied after implant placement, stimulates bone growth around the implant, reducing the healing time, minimising discomfort, and increasing the success rate. The entire process is carried out under sedation.
Central Dental Frankston acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land, seas and skies throughout Australia and pays respect to their Elders, past and present. In particular, we recognise their deep connection to Country and honour their knowledge and wisdom in caring for it.
