Replacing a missing tooth is about more than restoring your smile. You may notice changes to your speech or the way your teeth work together. Over time, gaps can cause neighbouring teeth to shift, altering your bite and making it harder to maintain good oral health.
At Box Hill Dental, we provide dental implant solutions designed to replace missing teeth with restorations that are carefully planned to look natural and support everyday function. We’ll take the time to explain your options and recommend the treatment that’s right for your needs.
The cost of a single tooth implant starts from $4,997, including implant placement and an implant-supported crown.
Every smile is different, which is why your treatment begins with a personalised consultation. We’ll assess your oral health, discuss all available treatment options and provide a clear treatment plan, including costs, before any treatment begins.
No surprises. No hidden fees. Just honest advice and transparent pricing from the start.
Dental implants are considered one of the most effective options for permanent tooth replacement because they're designed to look, feel and function like natural teeth. The implant has three parts; a titanium post, which acts as an artificial tooth root, the abutment, which connects the crown (artificial tooth) to the implant, and the crown itself. Once placed, implants provide a stable base to replace a missing tooth or multiple missing teeth.
Implant-supported dentures can offer a more secure alternative to traditional dentures. Also known as snap-on dentures or implant overdentures, they attach securely to dental implants for improved stability and comfort. Because they're anchored in place, implant-supported dentures can reduce movement while eating and speaking, helping you feel more comfortable in everyday situations. They can also provide greater chewing power compared to traditional removable dentures.
Dental implants require careful planning and attention to detail. With more than 25 years of combined dental experience, our team provides personalised treatment designed to achieve predictable, long-lasting results.

Detailed planning If you decide to move forward with dental implant treatment at Box Hill Dental, we'll schedule a dedicated planning appointment (fee applies). We’ll take digital scans, x-rays and other records needed to confirm your suitability, carefully plan your treatment and ensure the best possible outcome.
Implant placement Your dental implant is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anesthetic, with your comfort our priority throughout the procedure. Before you leave, we’ll explain everything you need to know to care for your implant during the healing phase.
Healing & osseointegration Over the next few months, a natural process called osseointegration occurs, where the implant fuses with the surrounding jawbone. During this time, we’ll monitor your healing to ensure everything is progressing as expected.
Abutment placement & crown fabrication Once your implant is fully healed, we’ll attach a small connector (called an abutment) to support your new tooth. We’ll then take digital scans, which are used to create a custom-made crown that matches the shape and shade of your natural teeth.
Crown placement Your final crown is securely attached to your implant, restoring the appearance and function of your smile. We'll continue to monitor your implant during your routine dental visits and provide ongoing maintenance advice to help keep it healthy for years to come.
Ongoing Maintenance Success of dental implants largely depends on aftercare, good oral hygiene and routine maintenance. We'll continue to monitor your dental implant during your regular check-ups to ensure everything remains healthy and functioning as it should. Think of these appointments as protecting your dental implant investment.
We process all major private health insurance claims on the spot through HICAPS, and we accept eligible Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) benefits. We also offer flexible payment plans to help spread the cost over time. Contact our team to discuss the options available to you.
