how does it work?

Dental implants are made of biocompatible titanium and once inserted into the bone with meticulous surgical technique, start forming a biological bond to bone tissue. Over the next few months, bone-forming cells adhere to the implant surface in a process called osseointegration, essentially becoming part of your body.

Recent advances in 3D scanning technology and dental implant surgical technique have allowed for the evolution of this extraordinary treatment alternative that allows for immediate tooth replacement. Powerful implant planning software allows for extremely accurate diagnosis and surgical planning that creates a virtual model of the completed case and a precision surgical template guide that facilitates extremely accurate implant placement and construction of the prosthesis. Your implants and new teeth can be fitted in the same day!

what’s involved?

Planning stage
Every case is treated individually, and Dr Lazaris will assess your specific dental condition and recommend the best treatment approach. The consultation and examination process involves a thorough clinical examination and 3D CT scan to assess your individual condition and needs. If this dental implant treatment whereby all teeth are supported by four dental implants is deemed suitable for your needs then the planning stage is commenced by taking diagnostic impressions and photos to design your new smile and create your prosthesis.

Dr Lazaris then feeds the data from your 3D CT scan into specialised planning software and designs the implant placement protocols and positions. From these computer-generated images a surgical template is constructed along with a highly accurate model of your mouth that facilitates the design and construction of the prosthesis that will be fitted on the day of your scheduled surgery.

Surgery stage
We begin the surgical phase by getting you prepared for the procedure. Our anaesthetist will make sure you are suitably sedated and comfortable so that you feel no discomfort during the surgery and have little or no memory of the procedure. Dr Lazaris will then administer local anaesthetic to ensure you are completely numb during the surgical phase of treatment.

Any remaining teeth (if present) are extracted and any unhealthy or superfluous bone or soft tissue is removed and then the implants are carefully inserted into the jaw bone in strategic positions and angulations using the precision surgical guide. Sutures are then placed around the implant fixtures to facilitate rapid healing.

Prosthetic stage
The prosthesis is then anchored onto the implant fixtures by abutments and screw fixtures and any final adjustments are made. Once you have suitably recovered from the sedation anaesthesia you are free to go home and admire your new smile and enjoy eating with your teeth!

what can i expect afterwards?

A certain degree of post-operative discomfort is expected and will be managed by anti-inflammatory medication and plenty of rest. This total rehabilitation dental implant treatment with immediate teeth replacement actually causes a lot less post-operative discomfort than traditional delayed implant treatment because there is only one procedure and the sensitive gum tissues are not exposed to any pressure or movement.

In the weeks to months following surgery, your bone will form a bond with the implant surfaces (Osseointegration) and will mature to a permanent and strong adhesion with proper post-operative care. In order to ensure the success of this critical phase, patients are advised to refrain from eating hard or crunchy foods and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption for up to 3 months.

You will be required to attend for review appointments over the next few months so that we can ensure that all is healing well and your mouth is comfortable and free from any infection.

Long-term success of treatment is highly dependent on regular hygiene maintenance, including brushing, flossing and mouth-rinses along with regular hygiene visits.

why dr lazaris?

Many dentists now advocate total rehabilitation smile using four dental implants as a universal treatment for all cases, and this sets a dangerous precedent in modifying individual needs to suit a particular treatment, rather than catering a treatment for the specific requirements of the patient.

It is this attention to detail in every aspect of dental implant treatment that has seen Dr Lazaris become one of the most experienced dental implant practitioners in Sydney.
