Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium screws which are placed under anaesthetic into the jaw

These screws can be used to retain single tooth crowns or dentures. Dentists have to undergo further training to be able to carry out implant related procedures in their practice.

We also use our in house 3D X-ray machine for assessment of the bone before implant placement. This saves you an additional trip to a specialised radiology practice in the city. All procedures are carried in house.
In our practice, Dr Trilok Vallury is responsible for placing dental implants. He has a Graduate Diploma in Dental implants from Sydney University and has carried out over a thousand of these implant placements over the past 10 years. He is also a mentor for a number of implant related educational programs around Australia.

Dr Mark Earl who also has a Master of Science in Dentistry at the University of London and  has been involved with implant dentistry since it’s inception in Australia in the 1980’s. He manages all complex implant restorations and helps a number of practitioner’s around Adelaide with management of implant complications .

Our practice works closely with a number of specialists around Adelaide for restoration of implants which need complex surgical procedures for placement. The crowns and dentures for these implants are made by some of the most advanced scanning techniques available in dentistry today by specialised laboratories around Australia.

I had a tooth fitted with a crown today, following removal of an old filling. This was the second crown i had done here within eight months, in between I had my teeth cleaned and a filling as well. I can't speak highly enough of all the team members I have met, -dentists, technicians and reception staff. Everybody is friendly and competent. Procedures are carried out gently and painlessly, with a lot of consideration for patient comfort. A very impressive 3-D-printer-like piece of machinery (see picture) enables the team to manufacture crowns in-house which means you don't have to attend twice. Can't wait to go back - already booked my next appointment ! 😉 I highly recommend Encounter Bay Dental to anyone in need of dental work!

Very good experience. Had root canal work done on infected tooth. Was able to get in the day after I phoned for an appointment. Would have had to wait 2 weeks to get in to see local dentist. Dentist very professional and explained procedure being done. Will definitely change to this dentist for any future work.👍👍👍

Was fitted in at short notice with a very troublesome tooth. I can’t speak more highly about every aspect of the care taken & attention given to a fairly complex situation. Top notch! Highly recommended & I’ll be back!
