Dental Implants
Replace missing teeth.
Get your smile back.
Missing teeth affect how you eat, how you speak, and how confident you feel. Dental implants give you a permanent replacement that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth — no slipping, no hiding your smile.
Why it matters
A missing tooth is not just cosmetic
When a tooth is lost, the jawbone underneath starts to shrink. Nearby teeth drift into the gap. Your bite changes. Over time, one missing tooth can affect the health of your whole mouth — and the way your face looks.
Bone loss
Without a tooth root, the jawbone in that area shrinks over time — making future treatment more complex.
Shifting teeth
Nearby teeth drift into the gap, throwing off your bite and creating new problems down the track.
Confidence drops
Many patients tell us they stopped smiling in photos or avoided certain foods — a daily reminder of something they would rather forget.
The solution
A tooth that looks, feels and works like your own
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone where your tooth used to be. Over a few months it fuses with the bone, creating a stable root. We then attach a custom-made crown on top — matched to the shape and shade of your existing teeth.

Questions people usually ask
How long does the implant process take?
From start to finish, most single implants take 3 to 6 months. The implant itself is placed in a single visit, but it needs time to integrate with your jawbone before the final crown is fitted. We walk you through every step.
Is getting a dental implant painful?
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so you will not feel pain during placement. Most patients describe the discomfort afterwards as similar to having a tooth extracted — manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and usually much less than expected.
How much do dental implants cost?
A single dental implant at Biltoft Dental typically ranges from $4,500 to $6,500, depending on your specific needs. Full arch restorations or cases needing bone grafting cost more. We provide a clear, itemised quote after your assessment — no hidden fees.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown on top may need replacing after 15 to 20 years, but the titanium implant itself is designed to be a permanent solution.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most healthy adults with enough bone in their jaw are suitable for implants. Smokers, people with uncontrolled diabetes, or those with certain medical conditions may need additional planning. The best way to know is to book an assessment.
What if I do not have enough bone for an implant?
Bone loss is common, especially if a tooth has been missing for a while. Bone grafting can rebuild the area so an implant can be placed safely. We will discuss this at your assessment if it applies to you.
