Improve your smile with a trusted professional.

Dental Implants

Conventional bridges or dentures may not be your only options when replacing missing teeth. For some people, dental implants offer a smile that looks and feels very natural. Surgically placed below the gums over a series of appointments, implants fuse to the jawbone and serve as a strong foundation for bridges, dentures or a replacement tooth.

Implants offer stability because they fuse to your bone. The oseointegration process of the titanium implants in your jaw helps your replacement teeth feel more natural and some people find the secure fit more comfortable than conventional substitutes.

How much do dental implants cost?

Dental Implants are priced from $3990 per tooth.

What is involved in placing implants?

First, surgery is performed to place the implant. Surgery can take up to several hours, and up to six months may be required for the bone to grow around the implant to firmly hold it in place. Some implants require a second surgery where a post is attached and the implant connects a replacement tooth. With other implants, the implant and post are already attached and are placed at the same time.

After the gums have had several weeks to heal, the next step begins. The artificial teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the implant. Because several fittings may be required, this step can take one to two months to complete.

Restorative Treatment

A dental implant is generally the best method for replacing a missing tooth. If another treatment method is available to suit your personal circumstances, Creative Smiles can explore and discuss the options with you to help you make a well informed decision.

Alternative treatments like bridges can fill gaps by using adjacent teeth to support an artificial ‘bridge’. The bridge will span an area where teeth are missing and attach to adjacent implants or an existing tooth.

Another advanced procedure is the All-On-4 treatment, which is revolutionising the way Creative Smiles replace missing teeth. Patients no longer need to worry about inconvenient dentures and uncomfortable dental prosthetic’s. The All-On-4 Implant solution is a full arch restoration where patients can function as normal whilst enjoying the comfort and aesthetics similar to natural teeth.

Dr. Reg De Sousa

Dental Surgeon

As the practice principle at creative smiles I am proud to lead the dedicated team of doctors, nurses and administrative staff at Creative Smiles.

I come from a family of dentists and so grew up around dentistry from a young age helping out whenever I could .Hence my passion for dentistry began at an early age and has grown over the last 30 years that I have been in practice.

I qualified as a dentist from the Royal London Hospital Medical College, (University of London) in 1994. On graduation I completed a years post graduate vocational training and then began working on the NHS for the next 12 years.

During this time I also branched out and opened a small private practice on London’s Harley Street which I had for 5 years until my departure to Melbourne.

While on Harley street, I developed my interest in implant dentistry, and studied for a year in 2007, under a clinical mentorship.

In 2010 I moved to Melbourne with my family and began working as a dentist at Creative Smiles, where I have further developed my skills in implantology and cosmetic dentistry and additionally completed the Invisalign and Spark training.

I have also completed the All-On-4 training at the Malo Clinic in Lisbon, Portugal, where the concept was created, enabling me to offer this treatment concept in addition to the more traditional approach to fixed and removable prosthetic oral rehabilitation to our patients at Creative smiles.
