At Maroondah Dental Care we understand that the loss of a tooth can cause oral and general health concerns, but it can also have an impact on your confidence and self-esteem.



Some consequences that can result from losing a tooth include:

Adjacent teeth on either side of the space and opposing teeth can move out of alignment.

Bite and jaw alignment problems may develop

Your tooth root helps to maintain jawbone density, gum health and facial muscle elasticity. When teeth are missing, your bone and gum recede.

The development of dental implants has revolutionized dental healthcare and restored the smiles of people all over the world.

Dental implants are developed from medical grade Titanium which is placed in your jawbone to become substitute for a missing tooth root and a solid foundation to which a crown, bridge, a full or partial denture may be secured.

Undertaking dental implants is a multidisciplinary service involving a team of highly trained professionals and requires meticulous preparation and planning.
