Not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. If the teeth are in a normal position then there is no reason that they cannot function as any other normal tooth. Unfortunately, this is often not the case and they may need to be removed. When wisdom teeth are first erupting through the gum there can be associated pain and swelling. For some people this can be frequent and cause significant pain. In some people this can also lead to infection requiring treatment with antibiotics or even an emergency hospital admission and surgery.
A dental implant is a titanium screw that can be inserted into the bone of either your top or bottom jaw. Titanium is a very well tolerated metal that will eventually integrate with your natural bone. This is the same metal that is used in artificial joints and in repairing broken bones. The implant itself can then be used as a foundation to replace missing teeth. If a single tooth is being replaced then the dental implant acts like a prosthetic tooth root.

FAQs
How long is my initial consultation?
A typical initial consultation is approximately 20 to 30 minutes, however complex consultations such as those for orthognathic surgery may be scheduled for up to one hour as they may include photographic records and models of your teeth.
How do I prepare before surgery?
For surgery under general anaesthesia it is important to fast (no food or drink) for 6 hours before your time of surgery. Twice daily antiseptic mouthwash (Savacol or Difflam C) for 1 week prior to your surgery can help reduce your chance of post-operative infection.
Will there be any out of pocket expenses?
In most cases there will be some out of pocket expenses for both your consultation and surgery. Our reception staff will discuss consultation costs with you when you make your appointment and our surgeons will discuss the surgical costs with you in detail at your initial consultation.
How can I make payment?
Payment may be made in person by cash, cheque, credit card or debit card. Payment may be made over the phone by credit card. Payment may be made by Bpay once an invoice is issued from your initial consultation.
What should I bring to my consultation?
Please bring all relevant x-rays and correspondence from your referring doctor. Please bring your Medicare Card, DVA card and Private Health Insurance details. If you have a Workcover Claim please bring your relevant paperwork including claim number.
Will I have surgery under local or general anaesthetic?
This will be decided between you and your surgeon. The majority of our procedures are done under a general anaesthetic (asleep) due to the complexity involved, however where the procedure is relatively minor an awake procedure would normally be preferred unless you specifically wished to be asleep.
What if I don’t have private health insurance?
We offer general anaesthetic procedures at our South Brisbane rooms for uninsured patients. This is considerably cheaper than being admitted to a hospital. If your procedure is relatively simple then you may be suitable for surgery under local anaesthetic (awake), which is again even more economical.
Can I have treatment on the same day as my consultation?
Where possible, emergency patients will receive treatment on the same day as they are referred. Often your referring dentist or doctor will have communicated the situation directly with us and we will accommodate you where possible. Surgery under general anaesthesia is not offered on the same day as consultation. Seriously unwell patients will be admitted to hospital and managed promptly.
Do I need a referral?
Yes, all specialist consultations will need a referral from your general dentist, doctor or other specialist for you to receive a rebate from Medicare or your Health Fund.
Is there parking available?
Yes, we have multiple free parking spots on our property in South Brisbane. All of our branch practices also have free off street parking available. Our main rooms in South Brisbane are a short walk from the South Brisbane train station and the city centre. Multiple bus services are also available.
