Dental Implants

Many people with one or more missing teeth are suitable candidates, though factors such as bone density, gum health and general health are considered. Our Geelong implant dentist will assess your suitability during your initial consultation and discuss the best options for you.

The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, so the area is completely numbed during placement and most patients are surprised by how manageable it feels. Any tenderness afterwards is usually mild and settles within a few days, and can generally be managed with simple over-the-counter relief. We will give you clear aftercare instructions and are always available if you have questions during your recovery. Our calm, welcoming environment at Dentalspa Geelong is designed to help you feel at ease from start to finish.

Dental implant treatment is staged over several months to give the implant time to fuse securely with the jawbone, a natural process called osseointegration. As a general guide, the timeline runs from initial consultation and placement through to a healing period of roughly three to six months, followed by fitting your final crown or bridge. Some cases can be quicker and others take longer, particularly if a bone graft or extraction is needed first. We will map out your personal timeline at your consultation so you know exactly what to expect at each stage.

The cost of dental implant treatment in Geelong varies from person to person, because every case is different. The main factors include how many implants you need, whether any preparatory treatment such as a bone graft or extraction is required, and the type of crown or bridge chosen.

At Dentalspa Geelong, we provide a full cost breakdown after your initial consultation, once we have assessed your teeth and designed your treatment plan. We will explain every component of the fee before you commit to anything.

We also offer:

• Flexible payment plans to spread the cost of treatment
• Health fund claims - Some dental treatments may be claimable under extras cover depending on your policy. We recommend checking with your fund or asking our team at your consultation.

Yes. Dental implants are a versatile solution. A single implant can replace one tooth, while a small number of implants can support a bridge to replace several teeth in a row. For patients missing most or all of their teeth, multiple implants can secure a full-arch restoration, offering a far more stable alternative to traditional dentures. During your assessment we will explain which approach best suits your situation and goals.
