Implant Expectations - Lower Hutt, NZ
The All-In-One Solution for a Complete Smile
What Are Dental Implants?
Missing teeth can impact your confidence, eating ability, and overall oral health. Whether you’re struggling with failing dental health or don’t want to deal with old-fashioned dentures that limit your food choices, dental implants are the ideal way to permanently replace missing teeth.
A dental implant consists of three parts: the tooth implant itself – a titanium post that’s compatible with your body – an abutment that connects the post to the restoration, and the final restoration- a custom crown, bridge, or denture. This combination mimics natural teeth’ look, feel, and function, making it the best choice for replacing missing teeth. If you’re ready to rebuild your smile with dental implants in Hutt Central, Lower Hutt, NZ, our expert team is here for you!

What to Expect from the Dental Implant Process
Your treatment begins with a consultation where we’ll discuss your dental history in detail to understand why you’re interested in tooth implants and how you hope they can improve your quality of life. We’ll collect detailed diagnostic images, evaluate your oral health to determine if dental implants are right for you, and create a custom treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. We’ll discuss your options and what to expect with your dental implant cost.
We use the most advanced imaging and surgical technology to ensure an efficient, precise procedure and exceptional results from every dental implant surgery. You’ll rest comfortably during the procedure with safe and effective sedation. We will make a small incision in the gums to access the underlying bone and place 4-6 implant posts at strategic angles within your jawbone.
Over the next few months, your dental implants will naturally fuse with your jawbone through osseointegration. This essential phase strengthens the bond between your implants and jaw, forming a stable foundation for your new teeth. The bone integrates with the implant posts, ensuring long-term support and durability.
After your dental implants have healed and fused with your jawbone, the next step is restoring them. We will take precise digital scans of your implants, which are then sent to our trusted in-house dental lab. These scans are used to create custom-made crowns that perfectly fit your smile.
Once your implants have healed, we will place a PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) temporary arch to allow you to test out the fit, comfort, and aesthetics of your new smile. This temporary arch helps us finalise the design for your permanent restoration, ensuring it meets your expectations in function and appearance. Any adjustments can be made during this phase to perfect the final outcome.
We will tailor your new smile to your unique goals, ensuring it reflects your desired look and feel. From the color and size to the shape and fit of your final prosthesis, every detail is fine-tuned for an exceptional result. Our focus is on creating a smile that looks great and feels natural and comfortable.
Once your final set of teeth is ready, we will attach them to your implants. This permanent set of teeth is durable and designed to keep up with your lifestyle. Dental implants can last a lifetime with proper home care and regular checkups, providing lasting confidence and function!
