When you visit Delacombe Family Dental you experience the exemplary missing teeth replacement services we provide for our patients. Our team offers a range of solutions to fix your missing teeth, including dental implants, dental bridges, and dentures. These high-quality solutions help to restore not only the appearance of your teeth but also the functionality. We combine various treatment plans unique to what you need and advanced techniques and technologies to provide our patients in Ballarat with excellent long-lasting replacements for missing teeth.

Dental Implants

At Delacombe Family Dental we provide the latest dental implant solutions to replace missing teeth. By using the newest and most efficient procedures to surgically place the dental implants you can rest assured knowing that you’re receiving the highest standard of dental care. The dental implant procedure involves placing titanium implants in the jawbone, providing a strong foundation for replacement teeth that look and function just like natural teeth.

Dental Bridges

If you have gaps due to missing teeth, dental bridges can be just the solution you need. Our dentists are experienced in creating custom-made bridges, made of artificial teeth that are anchored by the surrounding healthy teeth or by dental implants. Dental bridges work wonders for your oral health by restoring the aesthetics of your smile, improving your bite, and preventing the shifting of surrounding teeth.

Dentures

Here at Delacombe Family Dental we offer high-quality dentures, providing an easily removable solution for missing teeth. Our team are skilled at creating custom-fit dentures that are comfortable and secure, providing you with a radiant smile and restoring your ability to chew and speak properly. Whether you need complete or partial dentures, we ensure your dentures have a smooth fit and natural-looking results to give you flawless comfort and confidence.

FAQs

At Delacombe Family Dental, our dental implant treatments are based on your individual needs. As such, the price of dental implants varies depending on a number of factors. For example, the number of implants required, additional procedures that may occur, and materials used. We recommend booking a consultation with us where we’ll examine your situation and provide you with an estimate of the cost. To make dental implants available to everyone, we provide payment methods such as Afterpay, Humm, Denticare and Zip as well as interest free payment plans, giving you the freedom to receive your dental treatments whilst managing easy weekly payments.
With the proper care, dental implants can last many years. They are designed to be a durable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth. To maintain the longevity of your dental implants you should attend regular dental check-ups, maintain good oral hygiene practices, and avoid habits like smoking.

Dental bridges are considered a semi-permanent solution for missing teeth. While they are not removable like dentures they have the support of adjacent teeth or dental implants which ensures their durability. As long as you take proper care, dental bridges can last for many years. However, they may require replacement or repair over time due to normal wear or changes in the supporting teeth.

Unlike other teeth replacement solutions such as dentures and bridges, dental implants can help to reduce or minimise bone recession. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone and provide the necessary stimulation and support that natural tooth roots would ordinarily provide. This can help preserve the bone structure and prevent further bone loss that can occur if your tooth is missing.

Our dentists will consider a number of factors when recommending the best dental solution for you. This includes your overall oral health, the number of missing teeth, and of course your personal preferences.

  • Dental bridges offer a cost effective solution for missing teeth. It is a less involved process and can be completed more quickly than dental implants. They offer a good solution for patients with compromised bone health, as they do not rely on the jawbone to be held in place.
  • Dental implants offer several benefits, such as improved longer term stability, durability, and preservation of the jawbone.
