Dental Implants

Welcome to Katoomba Dental Centre, your premier practice for dental implants in all locations, including Katoomba, Blue Mountains, Leura, Wentworth Falls, Hazelbrook, Lawson, Blackheath, Mt Victoria, Lithgow, Springwood, Faulconbridge and Blaxland.

Patients travel from all over to our dental clinic because we offer more than single implants. Our options also include implant-retained over-dentures and All-on-4—the latter is a fantastic option for patients who don’t feel comfortable with dentures even if they are fixed with implants.

We also offer free dental implant consultations in Katoomba because our dentists believe that you should be armed with all the information before making a decision about your tooth replacement. Ask a team member for further details.

If you would like to arrange your consultation, or if you have any questions, we encourage you to reach out to our dental clinic today. Also, click on any of the boxes above to learn more about our dental implant options.
 

  • Free Implant Consultation

    We want everyone to have the opportunity to explore implants as a viable option. This consultation is an obligation free appointment with our principal dentist to help answer questions and assess whether or not you would be a suitable candidate do any implant based treatments. 

    The appointment includes an intra-oral examination, OPG x-ray (if a recent one is not available) and a printed treatment plan with estimated costs. 

    For any person that wishes to move forward with implant treatment, we require a 3D x-ray (Cone beam CT), this is not covered under this offer and will carry an expense. This can be performed at the time of the consultation or at a separate appointment.

    Not all patients will be suitable to have implant treatment, or potentially will require more extensive treatment to achieve the same results. The purpose of this consultation is to help identify early these possible indicators which may lead to increased risk or further treatment required. This process allows you to make an informed choice as to whether or not you would like to proceed with treatment. 

    Implant treatment is an invasive procedure and carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.

Frequently Asked Questions

There are a number of ways to treat gaps in your smile, but your options will depend on the size of your gaps and the desired aesthetic results.

Invisible braces—Invisible braces, such as Invisalign, can fix a number of problems with your smile, including gapped or misaligned teeth. Treatment is quicker than with traditional braces, with most patients getting their desired results in time periods between six and 18 months.

For those patients who do not want to undergo orthodontic treatment, we offer:

Tooth bonding—If the gaps between your teeth are minor, tooth bonding might be able to give you the results you desire, and treatment can usually be provided in just one visit. Using the same material that is used for tooth-coloured fillings, the tooth-coloured resin material is bonded to the teeth using adhesives and a high-intensity curing light.

Dental veneers—These ultra-thin, translucent tooth covers camouflage a variety of problems with your smile, including teeth that are gapped, chipped, unevenly spaced or sized differently. Treatment of your natural teeth is required before application, so this is a permanent cosmetic option.

Dental implants— A single tooth implant can help close of that cap in your smile and provide a long term solution to your missing tooth/teeth. With implants we have a variety of options to replace multiple or single missing teeth giving you back your smile.

For more information about fixing gaps in your smile with cosmetic dentistry, we invite you to call our Katoomba, NSW dental surgery to book a consult.

When you think of dental implants in Katoomba, you probably imagine a single tooth replacement, but we offer additional options in our dental clinic.

These options make implant dentistry accessible to patients with every level of tooth loss.

Single Dental Implants

Single dental implants are just what you might expect: a tooth root replacement surgically inserted into the gum. This new root is made of solid titanium, and it integrates into the bone. Then, we top your implant with a replacement tooth when the integration process finishes.

Implant-Supported Dentures

This option works for complete tooth loss, and the process is similar to single implant placement. We rely on four to six implants with implant-supported dentures to secure your prosthetic. As a result, you’ll never again have to worry about relines or a loosening denture.

All-on-4

All-on-4 is ideal for patients who do not want to wear dentures. This is a lower-profile arch of replacement teeth secured with four dental implants.

Is Implant Dentistry Right for You?

We encourage you to book a consultation with our implant dentist to determine whether implant dentistry is a smart choice for your tooth loss. In some cases, pretreatments may be in order to make you a better candidate.

For Dental Implants in Blue Mountains, We Encourage Your Call

We invite you to reach out today to learn more about implant dentistry and how it can work for you.

Dentures in Katoomba are time-tested tooth replacements. And most patients are excellent candidates for this type of prosthetic.

We offer various denture options to meet the needs of our patients, including:

  • Partial dentures
  • Full dentures
  • Implant-supported dentures

Your dentist will talk to you more about the options during your initial consultation, as well as whether dentures are a suitable tooth replacement for you. At this first look, we may take x-rays or perform specific exams to ensure your candidacy. We also answer your questions and address any concerns.

In some cases, we may recommend pretreatments. For example, if you’re considering complete dentures, we will have to extract any remaining teeth. If you’re considering a partial denture, your dentist will ensure the integrity of the supporting teeth and may need to remove one or more if they are not healthy enough to support a partial denture.

Full dentures stand in for complete tooth loss. Partials take over only where teeth are missing. Implant-supported dentures rely on four to six dental implants for a stable option.

Are You Considering Dentures in Katoomba?

If you’re considering tooth replacement, we encourage you to arrange a consultation with the dentist. We also recommend looking into our current specials and membership plan for potential savings on your dental care.

We are happy to serve all locales, including Katoomba, the Blue Mountains, Leura and Yosemite.

Dental Implants Technology

Cone Beam CT

Cone beam CT is different from a traditional CT. Of course, it can produce clear, crisp and resizable images to aid in diagnostics, just like a traditional CT. However, Cone beam technology produces three-dimensional images of your oral structure, which allows your Katoomba dentist to plan treatments with precision. 

Additionally, cone beam technology is digital, which means less radiation exposure and environmentally friendly printing and film storage. 

Cone beam imaging uses include but are not limited to: 

  • Evaluating the oral structure to plan treatments
  • Surgical planning for dental implants or impacted wisdom teeth
  • Diagnosing painful conditions like TMJ
