Ambience Dental Offers Tooth Implant Services in Wollongong

Ambience Dental, a dental office in Fairy Meadow, NSW, Australia, is offering single tooth implants in Woolongong and surrounding areas. Dental implants effectively replace the root structure of the missing tooth. These are typically made of titanium and are implanted directly into the jawbone to provide an artificial root. The jawbone will gradually grow and fuse to the titanium to form a solid foundation for replacement teeth. For single tooth implants, just one tooth will be placed on the titanium root and this will function in the same way as a natural tooth. Of course, this is for patients who are missing just a single tooth. For those who have several missing or damaged teeth, full mouth implants are needed. Full mouth dental implants are used as a replacement for a full arch or set of missing teeth. It is important to note that a dental implant is not needed for each missing tooth. Instead, groups of missing teeth may be replaced by bridgework that is supported by implants.

“While dental implants are suitable for any adult in good general health, there are certain circumstances that need to be considered,” says Vivek Reddy, practice manager at Ambience Dental. “First, you need to have enough bone in your jawbone to support the implant. Secondly, some conditions can increase the risk of implant failure. Patients who have diabetes, gum disease or drink or smoke heavily are at increased risk. The best way to find out if dental implants are suitable for you is to have a full assessment with one of our dentists.”

Those who don’t have enough bone density in their jawbone may still have dental implants, although the procedure will be more complicated. To have the appropriate bone density, bone grafting may be needed as a preliminary procedure. The dentist will also carefully evaluate the medical history of the patient to determine whether implants could be the best option and may suggest some lifestyle changes to ensure the success of the procedure for tooth implant Wollongong patients will undergo.

Meanwhile, they would like to assure patients that Ambience Dental has modern and state-of-the-art equipment. This dental office is fully equipped to provide not only general dentistry services but also cosmetic dentistry, implants, sedation dentistry, veneers, teeth whitening, full-mouth rehabilitation, and crown and bridge restorations. They have a team of experienced dentists, dental nurses, and dental hygienists who are all fully equipped and qualified to provide the dental services that patients require.

Dr. John Saad, who has 36 years of experience, is the Senior Practice Principal and Head of the clinical team at Ambience Dental. He graduated from Sydney University in 1985. He partnered with Dr. John Pearman about 36 years ago to establish what is now regarded as the most trusted dental practice in Illawarra, NSW. He has specific interests in implant surgery, bridges, and crowns.

Dr. John Pearman started his career as a dentist in 1979 in Figtree, right after graduating from Sydney University in 1978. He is focused on all aspects of cosmetic dentistry, including dental implants, bridges, and crowns. He has been restoring and placing tooth implants for more than 20 years.

Dr. Pearman, along with Dr. Ahmed Bedeir and Dr. Saad are all well experienced in implant dentistry, having practiced it for more than 20 years. Dr. Bedeir has a Masters Degree in Oral Implantology, while Dr. Saad and Dr. Pearman have traveled extensively to study implant technology alongside implant specialists, such as Dr. Steven Chen. Together, they form a reliable team of dental implant experts, providing the patient with peace of mind that they are highly qualified, have more than adequate experience, and use the best materials and equipment for the treatment they provide.

After the thorough examination of the patient, the next step is the implant placement. After the titanium screw has been placed in the jawbone, there will be a need to wait for up to six months while the titanium screw is bonding with the jawbone. Next, the abutment is added. The gums will have healed after a few weeks and that is the time the crown will attached to the abutment. The patient now has a new tooth, which feels, looks and works like a natural tooth.

Ambience Dental offers various payment plans to help make dental implants easier to finance. They accept all health funds but for those who don’t have health insurance, they also offer various payment plans, including the National Dental Plan, Zip Pay and Zip Money, and Superannuation.
