0800 282 569When missing a tooth, it can be more than just an aesthetic issue. A gap may damage the surrounding teeth, causing misalignment and speech defects. With modern day technology, dentures & bridges are not the only solutions to missing teeth.
Dental implants are advanced dental prosthetics designed to replace missing teeth. These implants consist of titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone.
They serve as sturdy foundations for artificial teeth, offering a permanent and lifelike solution for tooth loss. Dental implants look, feel and function exactly how natural teeth would, proving revolutionary in the field of affordable cosmetic dentistry.
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of biocompatible materials, typically titanium. They support replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. These implants serve as a strong and stable foundation for your new teeth.
Dental implants play a crucial role in maintaining the health of your jawbone. Unlike other tooth replacement options, such as dentures, implants stimulate the bone and help prevent bone loss. This preserves your facial structure and overall oral health.
When you opt for dental implants, you're choosing a solution that closely mimics the appearance, texture, and functionality of your natural teeth. This means you can smile, eat, and speak with confidence, as if you never lost a tooth.
One of the key benefits of dental implants is that they allow you to enjoy a wide range of foods without any restrictions. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants provide a stable and secure foundation, enabling you to bite into and savor your favorite dishes with ease.
Dental implants not only restore your oral function but also boost your self-confidence. With a beautiful, natural-looking smile, you'll feel more at ease in social and professional situations, giving you the confidence to show off your pearly whites.
Dental implants eliminate the inconveniences associated with dentures. You won't have to worry about adhesives, slippage, or discomfort. Implants become a permanent part of your mouth, offering a hassle-free solution for tooth replacement.
Dental implants are known for their exceptional durability. When properly maintained and cared for, they have the potential to last a lifetime. Regular aftercare and maintenance ensure that your dental implants remain a long-lasting and cost-effective choice for tooth replacement.
(When dental implants are maintained correctly, they can last a lifetime.
Aftercare and maintenance are to be followed for a long-lasting dental implant.)
Candidates should have good overall oral health with healthy gums and a jawbone that is capable of supporting the implant. If there are issues such as gum disease or a weakened jawbone, these may need to be addressed before implant placement.
Adequate bone density in the jaw is crucial for the success of dental implants. The implant needs a solid foundation in the jawbone for stability. If there is insufficient bone, procedures like bone grafting may be considered to augment the bone.
Smoking can interfere with the healing process after implant surgery. Ideally, candidates should be non-smokers or be willing to quit smoking for a period before and after the implant procedure.
Candidates should be in overall good health. Conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune disorders may affect the healing process and may require careful consideration before proceeding with dental implants.
Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for the long-term success of dental implants. Candidates should be committed to regular dental check-ups, professional cleanings, and proper oral care at home.
Teeth grinding can put excessive pressure on implants, potentially leading to complications. Candidates with bruxism may need to address this issue before getting dental implants.
Candidates should have realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure. While dental implants provide a durable and natural-looking solution, it's important for individuals to understand the process and potential limitations.
At Auckland Family Dental, we utilize Nobel Active implants, a leading innovation in the field of dental implantology.
These cutting-edge implants have significantly increased the success rate of our procedures, providing numerous advantages to our patients.
Nobel Active implants are designed for stability and primary stability, making them particularly effective in cases where bone quality is less than ideal.
Their unique tapered shape and advanced surface technology allow for improved bone-to-implant contact, ensuring a secure foundation for replacement teeth. This not only enhances the overall stability of the implant but also reduces the healing time and post-operative discomfort for our patients.
With NobelActive implants, we can offer our patients a higher success rate, quicker recovery, and the assurance of long-lasting, natural-looking results, making them a top choice for achieving a perfect smile.
There are several types of dental implants to choose from, each tailored to specific needs. Let's explore these options:
Endosteal implants are the most common type, ideal for individuals with healthy jawbones. These implants are inserted directly into the jawbone and provide a sturdy foundation for artificial teeth.
Subperiosteal implants are a suitable choice for patients with insufficient bone density. They are placed on top of the jawbone but beneath the gum tissue, where they fuse with the bone over time. This option can be less invasive for those with bone issues.
Zygomatic implants are for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw. Instead of anchoring in the jawbone, these implants are anchored in the cheekbone (zygoma). They offer a secure foundation for prosthetic teeth.
All-on-4 implants are an innovative solution for those who require full arch dental restoration. They use just four implants to support an entire arch of teeth, providing a cost-effective and efficient option for tooth replacement.
Mini dental implants are smaller in size and are often used to stabilize lower dentures or for individuals with smaller teeth. They are less invasive and can be placed in a single appointment.
The dental implant procedure involves several stages:
Your dentist will assess your oral health and determine your candidacy for dental implants.
In a surgical procedure, the implant is placed into the jawbone.
The implant fuses with the bone, a process that can take a few months.
An abutment is attached to the implant, which connects the implant to the replacement tooth.
The custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is securely attached to the abutment.
Dental implant cost is surprisingly economical for the value it can bring to your life.

I have had two implants and two crowns done with them.
They are very friendly, caring and professional. The dentist called me in the evening to check if I was OK after the operation to remove an old tooth root and to prepare for the implant.
I knew that I was in good hands. I am 100% happy with their work.
The receptionists and the assistants are all very friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much!

... I was unsure of this treatment but Dr Kav was very informative and explained the process in detail and provided me with a treatment plan via email, this helped me to make the decision to proceed with it.
Had the implant surgery last week, the whole team was very friendly and made me feel welcomed which helped with my nerves.
I had the IV Sedation which I’m glad I did as I felt nothing during the whole process and was completely relaxed.
A day after the procedure I felt some tenderness but the days following I felt no pain or tenderness at all which I’m very happy with...
Highly recommend the implant treatment for those thinking about it - especially with the Auckland Family Dental team!

Yes all the 5*s are real!
This place is lovely, staff are excellent and strike the perfect balance between efficient and friendly.
They saw both myself and my boyfriend and did a handy joint consultation so we could discuss finances etc together.
Think we’ll be back for the suggested work!
