Common questions
Answers, before you ask.
How long does a dental implant last?+−
With proper care — regular hygiene visits, daily brushing and flossing — a well-placed implant can last a lifetime. The crown on top typically lasts 15–25 years before any servicing is needed. We include 12 months of complimentary follow-ups with every implant case.
Is implant surgery painful?+−
The procedure itself is done under local anaesthetic — most patients report little more than mild pressure. Recovery typically involves 2–3 days of light tenderness, easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief. We provide a clear, written aftercare plan.
What does All-on-4 cost in Bentleigh?+−
All-on-4 cases in Australia typically range from $25,000–$35,000 per arch. We provide an honest, fixed written quote after your free consultation — no hidden costs. We offer payment plans via zip and Afterpay, and HICAPS on-the-spot health fund claims.
Do you treat anxious patients?+−
Yes — about a third of our patients describe themselves as nervous. We offer pre-visit phone consultations, slow appointment pacing, headphones with music, and the option of conscious sedation for longer procedures.
Are you accepting new patients?+−
Yes! We always welcome new patients of all ages. Book online or call us — we usually have appointments available within the same week, and same-day for emergencies.
Where are you located?+−
We're at 123 Centre Road, Bentleigh East VIC 3204. Free street parking is available and we're a 5-minute walk from Bentleigh station.
