Missing a tooth or wearing an uncomfortable denture? At Memon Dental Care, our dental implants Castle Hill service replaces missing teeth with a permanent, natural-looking solution that looks, feels and functions like your own tooth. Dr Mohammed Sohail Memon brings specialist prosthodontic training (MDSc, PhD) to every implant case, ensuring precise planning and long-lasting results.
Unlike bridges or dentures, a dental implant replaces the tooth root itself. Therefore, it preserves your jawbone, prevents nearby teeth from shifting, and gives you the confidence to eat, speak and smile without worry.
Before treatment begins, we always conduct a full dental check-up to assess your overall oral health. Furthermore, we recommend our preventive dentistry services to protect your remaining teeth and support the long-term success of your implant.
Warning: Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. We use effective local anaesthetic throughout, so you feel no pain during placement. However, some mild swelling or discomfort afterwards is normal and typically settles within a few days.
Most healthy adults with adequate jawbone density are suitable candidates. However, factors like gum disease, smoking, or bone loss can affect suitability. Therefore, our Castle Hill team will conduct a thorough assessment, including X-rays, before recommending implant treatment.
The full process, from placement to final crown, typically takes three to six months, as the implant needs time to fuse with the jawbone. However, timelines vary depending on your individual healing and treatment plan. Our team will give you a clear timeline from the start.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. However, this depends on your oral hygiene and regular check-ups. Therefore, we recommend ongoing preventive care at our Castle Hill clinic to protect your investment.
Implants offer a more permanent, stable solution because they replace the tooth root and preserve jawbone health. Dentures and bridges, on the other hand, sit on top of the gum or adjacent teeth. Therefore, many patients find implants more comfortable and natural-feeling long term. Our team can discuss which option suits your needs and budget.
Some health funds provide partial cover for implant treatment under major dental or extras cover. However, cover varies significantly between providers. We recommend checking with your fund before your appointment, and our team can provide a detailed quote to assist.
Without treatment, surrounding teeth can shift, your bite can change, and the jawbone at the missing tooth site will gradually shrink. Furthermore, this can lead to further dental issues over time. Therefore, early treatment is always the better option.
