How is it performed?

At Dentists& Doctors in Geelong, our dental practitioners have categorised the Geelong dental implant procedure into two stages, which are: Surgery stage and the Prosthetic stage. Any dental procedure is executed after a careful check of your mouth to tailor the most fitting solution to you.

Surgery stage

At this stage, the implants are placed in the patient’s jaw. A small incision is made into the gum tissue followed by placement of a medical grade titanium implant into the jawbone. Once the implant is placed, we require the gum tissue to heal before moving on to the next step.

Prosthetic stage

Our Dentists place the tooth/crown on top of the dental implant after healing is complete. Healing period is typically 3 months after the surgery is done, this allows the bone cells to fuse to the implant and thus providing a strong framework to support the new tooth. After the final tooth is placed, you are able to function on it immediately.

Bone grafting:

Our experienced and skilled dentists from our Geelong dental clinic will recommend undergoing a bone grafting procedure to restore bone loss during the treatment if required.

All on 4® Dental Implants in Geelong help restore both the appearance and functionality of your teeth. With regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups one can maintain a healthy mouth and smiles enduringly.
