Permanent Tooth Replacement That Looks, Feels, and Functions Like Natural Teeth

Are you struggling with missing teeth that make it hard to chew, affect your confidence, lead to bone loss, or even cause changes to your face and jaw? Dental implants could be the solution. They are a modern, long-lasting treatment designed to replace missing teeth so they look, feel, and function just like natural ones. A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in your jawbone, which helps prevent further bone loss while creating a strong foundation for a replacement tooth.

At JJ Smiles Dental & Implant Centre, we understand that both your health and your smile are important. Our highly trained team uses the latest technology to provide expert implant care with a gentle, patient-focused approach. We proudly care for patients from Oxenford, Coomera, Helensvale, Upper Coomera, Pacific Pines, Hope Island, Maudsland, Tamborine Mountain, and the wider Gold Coast.

What Are Dental Implants and How Do They Work?

Think of a dental implant as a strong, artificial tooth root. When a tooth is missing, your jawbone in that area no longer has anything to support, which can cause the bone to shrink. A dental implant stops this from happening.

Here’s how it works:

The result is a replacement tooth that blends in with your natural teeth and allows you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence again.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the most trusted treatments in dentistry because they provide so many benefits compared to other tooth replacement options. Here’s why patients across the Gold Coast, including Oxenford, Coomera, Helensvale, Pacific Pines, Maudsland, Hope Island, Upper Coomera, and Tamborine Mountain, choose implants:

Natural Look and Feel

Dental implants are made to closely match your natural teeth. Once placed, you will barely notice the difference.

Long-Term Durability and Strength

With the right care, dental implants can last 15 years or even a lifetime, as they’re built from strong materials that handle everyday chewing and speaking.

Improved Speech and Chewing

Unlike dentures that may slip or move, implants stay firmly in place. This makes it easier to eat your favourite foods and speak without worrying.

Jawbone Preservation

Missing teeth often lead to bone loss, which can change the shape of your face. Implants keep your jawbone strong and maintain your natural facial shape.

Permanent Solution

Implants do not need to be removed like dentures and they do not affect nearby teeth like bridges. They are the closest option to having your natural teeth back.

Types of Dental Implants We Offer

At JJ Smiles Dental & Implant Centre, we understand that every patient has different needs. That’s why we offer a range of implant options, carefully planned with your dental health and goals in mind.

Single Tooth
Implants

Replace one missing tooth with a single implant and crown. It keeps your jawbone healthy and your smile complete.

Multiple Tooth or Bridge-Supported Implants

For people missing multiple teeth side by side, implants can hold a dental bridge in place. This restores your smile and makes chewing easier.

Full Arch Restorations (All-on-4 or Similar)

For patients missing all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, full arch implants can replace an entire set of teeth using just four implants. This is a strong and efficient solution for complete smile restoration.

Replace missing teeth with the option that suits you best.

Dental Implants vs Dentures and Bridges

Here’s how dental implants compare with other common tooth replacement options:

Feature Dental Implants Dentures Dental Bridges
Stability Fixed into your jaw, very stable Can slip or move while eating or talking Fixed, but relies on nearby teeth
Comfort Feels like natural teeth May cause irritation or discomfort Comfortable, but affects adjacent teeth
Bone Preservation Keeps jawbone strong and healthy Does not prevent bone shrinkage Does not prevent bone shrinkage
Longevity Can last 15+ years or more with care Usually lasts 5–8 years Usually lasts 7–10 years
Impact on Other Teeth No effect on neighbouring teeth No effect Requires trimming of healthy teeth
Function Restores full chewing power and clear speech May affect speech and chewing strength Good function, but less than implants

Step-by-Step Dental Implant Procedure

At JJ Smiles, we want you to feel confident at every stage. Here’s what the process looks like:

1

Step 1: Consultation and Check-Up

We talk with you about your dental health and goals, and check if implants are suitable for you.

2

Step 2: X-Rays, Scans, and Plan

Digital 3D scans and X-rays help us design a safe, accurate treatment plan.

3

Step 3: Surgical Placement of Implant

The titanium post is gently placed into your jaw under local anaesthetic.

4

Step 4: Healing and Osseointegration

Your jawbone grows around the implant over several weeks, securing it firmly. This is called osseointegration.

5

Step 5: Crown Placement or Full Restoration

Once healed, we attach your new tooth (crown, bridge, or denture).

6

Step 6: Post-Procedure Care and Support

We provide advice on caring for your implants and arrange regular check-ups to maintain long-term health.

Food and plaque stuck between your teeth don’t just vanish — they quietly attack your gums, causing decay, bad breath, and even tooth loss if ignored. Brushing alone won’t save you.

At JJ Smiles Dental & Implant Centre, we see the risks every day. Flossing is your best defence. A few minutes daily can save you from pain, costly treatments, and the silent damage you can’t see. Protect your smile — it’s worth it.
