Dental Implants have dramatically improved “quality of life” for millions of people. Now, regardless if you are missing one tooth or many, it doesn’t have to mean a life-time of loose dentures, poor chewing and embarrassment. Implants are based on sound science and have withstood the test of time. However, they need to done correctly and with extreme care to get the best results.

Dental Implants are essentially replacement teeth securely attached to the jaw-bone. They are a reliable strong long-lasting option that can restore original function and comfort and provide excellent aesthetics.
Historically, when teeth were lost due to trauma, disease or failure, they were replaced with dentures or bridges. Dentures sit on the gums and are often poorly tolerated. Many people don’t like dentures because they can slip out at inconvenient times. Some people are quite embarrassed to speak or eat in public. Alternatively, Bridges are supported by adjacent teeth, but increase risk of problems and failure of the supporting teeth. Dental Implants provide a better alternative. They will never decay or require root canal treatment.
Our team uses their extensive experience combined with state-of-the-art technology to appropriately plan implant cases to enhance success, function and appearance.

With advances in technology, it is not only possible to eliminate dentures completely, but it is often possible to have rigid replacement teeth provided on the same day with Immediate Implants.
Dental Implants are the most effective and comfortable alternative to natural teeth. They can reliably provide self-confidence and peace of mind. Implants are essentially sophisticated replacement tooth roots which function as secure foundations to replace teeth which are missing or to be removed, e.g. following trauma or breakdown.
Dental implant teeth look, feel and function just like natural teeth. Implants will stop shrinkage of the underlying jaw bone, thus maintaining gum and facial support. By stabilising the upper and lower jaw bone, the face looks better longer.

Dental Implants, when performed skilfully, are now recognised as routine predictable treatment for a full range of problems from single tooth replacement to full mouth rehabilitation. However, as with other treatments in dentistry, the experience of dentists in this field varies considerably. Dr Lidums, and his trained team, have worked, for many years, in partnership with Dentists across Australia in both teaching implant treatment and managing their patients.
Referral by Dentists

Many patients are referred by their regular dentist for implant treatment. Lidums Dental encourages a partnership approach to treating dentists’ patients. Some referring dentists prefer that we address placement of dental implants only so that they may restore them. The Lidums Dental Implant Placement Service provides assurance that the critical implant placement procedure is performed by an experienced specialist with a focus on long-term aesthetics and function. Other dentists prefer that we provide all aspects of treatment including the final restoration. Our dental treatment technology and processes are among the most advanced in Australia.
Lidums Dental provides high quality aesthetic Dental Implants, especially when patients prefer fast reliable treatment. We have a particular focus on Immediate Implants to re-establish original function and appearance as quickly as possible. The innovative “All-on-4” Immediate dental Implant Bridge Procedure is particularly appealing and provides benefits over traditional methods which require patients to go without teeth or to endure a difficult denture phase.
