Why choose Bayview Dental for ...
... your dental implant procedure?
Some clinics offer surgery by one dentist, and then the restorative component by another. This in itself is not a problem as long as there is only one consultant who coordinates the entire treatment. If problems happen, people will start blaming each other, which can be frustrating.

It is advantageous when the treatment is undertaken at the one clinic, which assumes responsibility and remains the one point of contact should a problem arise. At Bayview Dental Perth, we are able to provide dental implants in Perth from start to finish in over 90% of cases. So if you’re living in Perth, Claremont, Nedlands, Dalkeith, Crawley, Mosman Park, Cottesloe, and Swanbourne or surrounding areas then Bayview Dental is the perfect choice for all your dental implants needs.

You can read our blog where we talk about the options for replacing missing teeth with dental implants.

What’s the process for getting dental implants completed?
Our journey starts off with a comprehensive exam with all your teeth, gums and jaws. Photos, radiographs and something known as a Cone Beam scan are all used to determine the bone and the gum condition.

The next step is to take an impression of your mouth, which allows us to make a replica of your teeth and gums. An impression is a fantastic way to plan your implant surgery and we are even able to do guided digital surgery from your model to that we can place your implant within 0.25mm. Amazing!

We will initiate making some temporary teeth if you’re missing teeth in the front. This can be in the form of a denture, a temporary bridge, or even temporary implant.

After we have decided you are suitable for a dental implant, discussion occurs over what sedation options exist. These include:

No Sedation,
A tablet 1 hour before treatment to relax your jaws,
IV sedation at our clinic, or
General anaesthetic at a hospital.
On the day of your dental implant placement you will be asked to come in for approximately 1 to 2 hours depending on the complexity of your surgery.

The surgery itself used the only takes about 30 minutes and you well leave feeling like you do after a filling. The most annoying thing is playing with your stitches after the appointment.

It is important to remember that most of the time you will still have a gap at this stage or you may feel a small bump in your gum to prevent your gum from growing over the top of your implant.

After 3 to 6 months after we are able to take impressions of your implants and go on and fabricate your implant crown.

Do dental implants hurt?
During the procedure, there should be no pain at all due to the local anaesthetic or sedation options available.

After the anaesthesia has worn off, you will definitely know that something has happened to your mouth but you can go about your daily routine after the procedure.

The truth of the matter is that most procedures are painless. It’s the anticipation and fear of the unknown they can throw our anxieties into a spiral prior to our treatment.

It’s important to build trust with a dentist and know what to expect so that you may have a great experience. Most people at Bayview Dental Claremont report that they don’t even take painkillers after having dental implant surgery. For those wanting a pain free experience, we also offer Sedation Dentistry. Sedation dentistry is an ideal option for you if you have anxiety at the dentist. Our highly trained team-the team consists of a sedationist, the sleep dentist and specially trained nurses.

How do I know that I’m a candidate for dental implants?
If you’re missing a tooth, chances are you’re most likely eligible to get a dental implant.

Dental implants are remarkably versatile and they can be used to support your single crown and mimic what your natural tooth would have felt like. Of course, we would need to do a complete assessment to make sure you qualify for implant dentistry and discuss if there are other treatments that may be better for you.

If my tooth is removed will I be left with a gap?

If you choose to not have an empty gap when it comes to replacing a front tooth, you have options. These options can be discussed with you in person as they vary from person to person. Most people do not replace back teeth temporarily; however, this is left up to you.
