St Heliers Auckland Dental Implants - Tooth
Replacement Services Launched
The treatment includes both the dental implant, a small titanium
screw, and the crown, a ceramic cap that simulates the appearance
of a natural tooth.
Patients across Auckland can now book a
consultation to determine whether they are a good
fit.
Dr Richards explains that not everyone is a
suitable candidate for dental implants
People whose gums are not
healthy and strong, may not be
able to get implants.
Patients should first consult their
general dentist who will refer them to
a dental implant specialist after a
thorough assessment.
Dave and his St Heliers, Auckland team will then create a personalized treatment plan
which takes into account the patient's oral health, as well as general health - should the
patient require special care due to an existing medical condition.
While an implant can be placed
immediately upon the removal of the
patient's tooth, circumstances may
require it to be placed at a later time.
The healing period normally lasts up to
six months, and a healing cap is placed
over the implant for a few weeks.
The result is a permanent and functional tooth that matches
the colour of the patient's natural teeth.
A satisfied patient said, "Dr Dave
created a clinic with an unwavering
level of care, was put at ease
immediately.
Was relieved to have Dr Dave set out a
treatment plan to help prioritize the work
needed, balancing the costs associated
with the work really helped stay on top of
what was a neglected set of teeth.".
