Dental Implants Melbourne
Implant Dentistry
Dental implants are titanium posts, which are inserted inside the bone to act like the root of a tooth. Then a crown is fixed on top of the implant by either cementation or by a screw. Sometimes you may also need bone grafting to be done to insert an implant if there is no sufficient bone. Zen smiles dentists would need a radiograph called 3D scan to plan an implant.
Implant once inserted, may need 3 to 6 months for a final crown to be fixed. During the mean time, you may be given either a fixed or removable temporary tooth to be worn.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the releas.
