Considering Dental Implants?
Dental Implants are one of the most effective and long-lasting solutions to missing or broken teeth. They are surgically placed dental prosthetics that look, feel and function like natural teeth.
They can replace one missing tooth or multiple teeth for dental restoration and an implant-supported crown. Not only can restore your facial contours and bite, but improve your smile and self-confidence!
Dental implants are recommended for individuals who are missing teeth and who do not want to use alternative solutions, like dental bridges or dentures. A dental implant is not just a tooth replacement but an entire process that includes numerous benefits!
- Dental implants look, feel and function like natural teeth
- Dental implants can last a lifetime if well cared for
- There are no restrictions on the type of food you can eat after dental implant placement
- Dental implants strengthen your jawbone thus preventing any future dental bone loss. This also helps maintain your natural facial features and shape
Restore Your Smile with Dental Implants
How do Implants Work?
In experienced hands, dental implant surgery is now a routine and very successful dental procedure. It is a procedure often done after tooth extraction or for individuals who have lost teeth due to periodontal disease.
The implants are surgically placed into the jawbone where they will fuse with the bone and act as a foundation for the new tooth! After placing dental implant posts, our dentist connects the titanium covered post to the abutment, which is a screw that was placed into your dental implant post earlier.
At Buderim Dental Surgery, we use the latest technology and equipment to make sure that your dental implants are placed correctly, painlessly, and with as much precision as possible! Our dentists will make sure that there is a sufficient amount of healthy dental bone available for proper osseointegration, which is what the success of your dental implants depends on.
When to Consider Dental Implants
Tooth decay has many causes, such as poor oral hygiene, injury to teeth and gums, periodontal disease due to bacterial plaque accumulation on the surfaces of the teeth, or bone loss resulting in lack of support for your natural tooth structure. If you have lost one or more teeth due to any of these reasons, then you should consider getting a dental implant because it is permanent tooth replacement.
Why You Should Get A Dental Implant Treatment
- Dental implants help patients restore dental function
- Dental implants also provide aesthetic value, which allows the patient to smile confidently without any worries of stained/discolored teeth or poorly aligned dental restoration
- Dental implants last throughout life, which decreases the chances of tooth decay and periodontal disease compared to natural teeth

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Dental Implants
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium metal post that has been surgically placed into the jawbone underneath the gums. The term "Implant" is often used interchangeably with "Dental Implants", although technically dental implants are the titanium dental posts used to hold dental crowns, dental bridges or dentures in place.
Another term used for dental implants is dental implant restorations, which means that the dental post part of dental implant treatment is done and we now need to restore your tooth back (e.g., tooth lost due to injury) by attaching a dental restoration (denture/fixed bridge/crown) on top of your dental implant posts using dental adhesive or special type of dental cement called "non-cemented restorations".
Dental implants are permanent dental restorations that require dental implant surgery for placement. Our dentist will perform dental implant surgery by placing dental implants into the dental implant bed and leaving dental posts on your dental implants as temporary dental restoration to restore chewing function.
After a few months, when gum tissues have healed, you will receive permanent dental crowns to complete your dental restoration using dental implant supported bridges or dentures.
A dental implant post is one component of a dental implant. The dental implant posts which are used to support fixed restorations (e.g., crowns) are usually made from biocompatible titanium alloy and vary in surface texture (smooth, rough). Dental implant posts look like "standard" 8mm round cylinders, but they may be tapered (wide portion in your dental implant site and narrower towards the top).
Our dental surgeon uses dental implant posts to hold dental restorations in place until the dental gum tissues have healed or "integrated" with the dental implant posts.
Dental implants can become infected if bacteria enter into dental implant wounds when dental implant surgery is performed. Dental implants that are not placed properly or if dental implant posts are left outside the dental tissue without proper coverings are at increased risk of dental implant infections.
Symptoms of dental implant infections include: redness, swelling, pain and pus discharge from your gum tissues surrounding your dental implants. We will perform special tests to identify any bacterial contamination of your dental implant wound site(s) during our follow up examinations after placing dental implants so appropriate treatment can be initiated before dental infection progresses further deep into bone or soft tissue structures.
