Dental implants are a modern solution for the replacement of missing teeth. At Leederville Dental we provide the complete treatment, including the assessment, placing the tooth root implant and the fitting of your new tooth in one convenient location.
A dental implant can be thought of as an artificial tooth root that is placed into the jawbone. One or more missing teeth can be replaced. A dental implant is made from very strong material and placed in a simple procedure that is generally as convenient as a tooth extraction. After an initial healing period, during which the implant is placed in the bone and left undisturbed under gum tissue, it is uncovered and connected to a small metal post that secures and supports your new artificial tooth.
The implant material is extremely compatible with your jaw bone. The bone grows to the implant and bonds to it making the implant very strong.
Leederville Dental makes the impression and gives specific instructions, Onofrei Ceramics send back the finished product. Leo Onofrei makes crowns for existing teeth and makes bridges and implant crowns when teeth are missing. On request Leo attends the patient appointment to assist with choosing shade for the porcelain so you get the best match possible.

Fitting A Dental Implant During Sleep Dentistry
Experienced sedation dentist Dr Richard Kozlowski fitted this tooth implant during IV sedation or “sleep dental” at Leederville Dental. The crown was then fitted after the implant had time to bond with the surrounding bone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are dental implants and how do they work?
Dental implants are titanium posts placed in the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, they support a crown, bridge or denture to restore chewing function and aesthetics.
Who is suitable for dental implant treatment?
Ideal candidates maintain good oral and general health, have sufficient bone density and are committed to oral hygiene. A thorough consultation and imaging help assess suitability and plan treatment.
What should I expect during the implant procedure and recovery?
The process involves implant placement followed by healing for integration, then fitting a restoration. Mild discomfort and swelling may follow surgery, but are typically managed with over‑the‑counter pain relief. With proper care, implants can last many years.
