Cost of Dental Implants in Sydney
There have been several methods of replacing lost or badly damaged teeth. But the only method that feels like a natural tooth is an implant. These would be more common, were it not for the fact that they are a little pricey. But this cost is justified because the implants last for decades with only basic daily cleaning. This is much better than dentures that need replacing, or bridges that sacrifice the adjacent teeth.
Many people have put off getting dental implants because of the cost. But this treatment cost has gone down in recent years.
Fixtures for Dental Implants
A dental implant is built around a titanium post that is secured to the jawbone. This is an important part of the process and is the factor that makes implants superior to other tooth-replacement methods. Titanium is used because it bonds to the bone at an organic level. This makes a very secure connection.
The fixture will cost about $1500.00
The Implant Crown
This is the visible part of the tooth. It is designed to both look highly realistic, i.e.: like a natural tooth, and to be very durable. When the front teeth are replaced the tooth material is optimised to look more natural. When the back teeth are replaced the material is optimised for greater strength, looking slightly less life-like.
Newer crown materials are more natural-looking and more durable than older materials.
A crown for an implant will cost about $1350.oo
The Procedure of Dental Implants
The cost of the whole procedure is just the fixture cost and crown cost combined. This will take a few appointments as the fixture must have time to securely bond to the jawbone before the crown is put in place.
Once the implant is finished there is no recovery time. The surrounding gum may be slightly tender for a day or two, but this is an easy procedure.
A dental implant will never decay and is unlikely to break under normal circumstances. But it still requires brushing as the surrounding gum must be protected from infection.
