Dental Implants in Midland
Not just restoring your smile — restoring confidence and comfort
Missing teeth can affect not just how your smile looks, but also how you eat, speak, and feel every day. At Helena Street Dental in Midland, we offer dental implants — a modern, long-lasting solution that looks, feels, and functions just like natural teeth.
What are dental implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium screw that replaces the root of a missing tooth. It’s placed gently into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure, where it naturally fuses with the bone over time.
This creates a strong foundation for a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture to be attached — giving you a stable, natural-looking result.
Titanium has been used safely and successfully in medical and dental procedures for decades due to its strength, durability, and compatibility with the human body.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they:
- Look and feel like natural teeth
- Help maintain jawbone strength and facial structure
- Prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting
- Allow you to eat and speak with confidence
- Don’t require adhesives or rely on other teeth for support
- Are a long-term solution with proper care
Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, dental implants can restore both the function and appearance of your smile.
How many teeth can implants replace?
Dental implants are incredibly versatile and can be used to replace:
- A single tooth – using one implant and one custom crown
- Several teeth – using two or more implants to support a dental bridge
- All teeth in one or both arches – using multiple implants to support a full arch of dentures
Your dentist will assess your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability to recommend the most effective treatment plan.
What does the implant process involve?
For most patients, the dental implant procedure is completed in three main stages:
- Placement of the implant into the jawbone
- Attachment of the abutment (a small connector) to the implant
- Placement of the restoration — a crown, bridge, or denture that completes your smile
The process typically takes between three to six months, allowing time for healing and integration between each stage. The exact timeline depends on your individual health and bone density.
Is getting a dental implant painful?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, and most patients report little to no discomfort.
You may experience mild tenderness for a few days afterward, which is easily managed with rest and over-the-counter pain relief.
Our team will ensure you feel informed and comfortable at every step.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Just like natural teeth, dental implants need regular care to stay healthy and strong. Brush and floss daily, avoid smoking, and attend professional check-ups and cleans every six months to help protect your investment.
Without proper care, implants can still develop plaque or gum inflammation, so maintaining a good routine is essential.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most healthy adults with good oral hygiene and adequate bone density are suitable candidates for dental implants.
During your consultation, we’ll perform a thorough examination and take digital X-rays to confirm whether implants are the best solution for you.
