Did you know that losing a tooth is actually considered an amputation?

If you have one or several missing teeth, you may have considered replacing them before. Missing teeth may gradually result in:

Loss of bone
Loss of functionality
Further damage to other teeth
Movement of teeth around missing space

Dr Pak Poon excels at providing comfortable and successful dental implant restorations to patients at Leeming Dental.

Benefits of dental implants

Restores your smile’s natural look and function: A dental implant closely mimics a natural tooth, both in appearance and performance.
Integrates naturally with your jaw: Implants fuse with the jawbone (osseointegration), offering stable, long-lasting support for your replacement tooth.
Prevents shifting of adjacent teeth: Filling the gap with an implant stops neighbouring teeth from drifting out of alignment.
Helps prevent bone loss: Implants stimulate the jawbone through chewing forces, encouraging bone regrowth and helping to maintain your natural face shape.
Improves chewing and digestion: Regaining full chewing ability supports better nutrition, which contributes to overall health and well-being.
Supports long-term oral stability: Once healed, implants offer a permanent solution that doesn’t rely on surrounding teeth for support.

Implants usually require 3-6 months for healing and bone integration. This healing period begins with the placement of the implant. It ends when the prosthetic tooth, crown or bridge attachment is finalised.

Dental implant suitability

As always, our dentists will need to assess your suitability for this treatment. We will discuss the process with you in fine detail.

A 3D scan of your jaw is usually required as part of this assessment and may be completed at your consultation. It helps to determine if you have enough quality and quantity of jaw bone to receive this treatment. If you don’t, a bone graft may be recommended.

Insurance and payment plans

Dental implants are a valuable long-term investment in your health and confidence. While costs can vary based on complexity, extras cover from your dental insurance may help to partially cover the expenses. We also offer flexible payment plans, making implants more accessible through manageable monthly payments.
