Common Questions About Implants
Answers to help you make an informed decision.
A Specialist Periodontist has completed 3 additional years of full-time training focused on implants, gums, and bone. This expertise means better outcomes, especially for complex cases or when bone grafting is needed. It's why dentists refer their most challenging patients to specialists.
Most patients are surprised at how comfortable the procedure is. We use local anaesthesia and offer sedation options. Many say it's easier than having a tooth extracted. Post-procedure discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implant itself (the titanium post) fuses with your bone permanently. The crown on top may need replacement after 15-20 years due to normal wear, similar to any dental restoration.
Insufficient bone doesn't necessarily rule out implants. As periodontal specialists, we offer bone grafting procedures to rebuild the jaw, and some implant techniques are designed specifically for patients with reduced bone. We'll evaluate your options during consultation.
Costs vary depending on your specific situation and how many implants you need. We provide transparent pricing during your consultation. Many patients find the long-term value excellent compared to bridges that may need replacement or ongoing dental work.
No referral is needed. You can come directly to us for your implant consultation and treatment. Many patients choose to work with their regular dentist for routine care while seeing us for specialist implant work.

"Dr Lander is an expert in his field. The surgery I had for the two implants went without a hitch and the expected pain did not materialise. He talked me through what he was going to do during the op and kept me well aware of all that was being done. Great job. Great surgeon"

Dr. Leo is a true professional, with an exceptional level of skill and expertise in his field.
