Tooth replacement can mean the difference between optimal and poor oral health, function and dysfunction, a smile you love and one you try to hide. Fortunately, we offer many tooth replacement options in Katoomba, NSW.

  • Single Dental Implants:
  • Implant-Supported Dentures
  • All-on-4®
  • Dental Bridges
  • Dentures and Partials

Dental Implants Are Still the Gold Standard

Whether you have a single missing tooth or complete tooth loss, dental implants offer solutions.

Single dental implants in Katoomba can replace a missing tooth using a replacement root and custom dental crown.

Implant dentures are ideal for complete tooth loss, and All-on-4 can restore an entire arch of replacement teeth using only four replacement roots.

They are considered the gold standard because of their longevity, superior function, and maintenance-free upkeep. They also support bone health. Unlike removable dentures, there is no real learning curve or pain points to consider.

Dental Bridges Offer a Fixed Solution

The dental bridge is a single prosthetic anchored to neighbouring teeth with dental crowns. Sometimes, if the supporting teeth are unhealthy, your dentist secures your bridge with a dental implant.

About Dentures and Partials

These are time-tested solutions to tooth loss, but they come with drawbacks. For example, they loosen over time as the jawbone deteriorates. Eventually, you’ll need a reline or replacement to keep the denture or partial from slipping.

Are You Considering Tooth Replacement in the Blue Mountains?

Tooth replacement is vital to long-term dental health, digestion, and general well-being. To get started, we recommend that you visit your Katoomba dentist for an evaluation to determine suitability and costs and get answers to any questions you might have.

Lost a Tooth? We Have Options

Tooth loss has consequences, including bite misalignment, tooth wear, and even the potential for future tooth fractures and cavities. Fortunately, your Katoomba dentist offers solutions.

If you have missing teeth, we always recommend tooth replacement to improve your bite and allow you to enjoy healthier and more diverse foods.

Dentures and Partial Dentures in Katoomba

We provide dentures and partial dentures to patients looking for a more traditional tooth replacement option.

Dentures are replacement teeth on an arch that fill in for total tooth loss. Partial dentures are similar but contain only the teeth needed to fill in the smile. Additionally, our dentures are always customised.

You can opt for removable dentures or an implant-supported option.
