Implant Information

At our clinic we use the latest in implant technology. Below you will find information on the types of implants that we use.

IMPLANTS

Dental Implants Technology has revolutionized the practice of dentistry today.  It offers new possibilities and opportunities for dental reconstruction and oral rehabilitation treatment.   Dentists can now replace missing teeth in places of the jaw that were not possible in the past. 

To assist dentists who practice dental and oral reconstruction treatment, we, at Gumdoctors, offer our support services in:

1. Pre-treatment planning and advice.
2. Surgical placement of implants.
3. Jaw bone and soft tissue augmentation.
4. Post-treatment maintenance and monitoring care.

We have 18 years experience in implant surgery and can therefore offer valuable advice in the case assessment, diagnosis and treatment planning.   We use the latest Cone Beam Volumetric CT scanning and SIMPLANT software to assist us in pre-treatment surgical planning.  These technologies allow precision implant selection and placement in virtue  and in real life by using computer generated surgical guides (if necessary), where indicated, volumetric augmentation of the jaws can be planned using Simplant before the surgery.    This improves on the precision of the procedures and provides superior outcome.

We use a wide range of "proven" techniques in surgical jaw augmentation.   Therefore, our success rate is very high.  Where "evidence-base" techniques do not apply, we will advice the patient to seek alternative means to rebuild their dentition.

Our expertise in Implant Dentistry also enables us to offer a Specialised service in the management of complications (excluding prosthetic complications) arising from implant treatment.
