Medically reviewed by Dr. Alex Poli, Principal Dentist ·
North Perth is full of early-1900s brick homes, many of them renovated. Teeth, unfortunately, don’t always last as long as the house.
Maybe it’s a gap you’ve learned to smile around. Maybe it’s a back tooth that makes chewing awkward, or a bridge that’s starting to fail. It’s ok. We understand that replacing a tooth is a big decision, and you don’t have to make it today. You’ll see every option and cost before deciding.
Here at 123 Dental, we’re about 3.5 km from Angove Street, around 10 minutes outside peak traffic. Whether you’re near the Rosemount Hotel, Beatty Park Leisure Centre or the View Street end of the suburb, it’s a quick easy drive.
We’ve been caring for West Leederville for more than 30 years (formerly West Leederville Family Dental). Today the practice is led by our principal dentist, Dr Alex Poli, who completed a diploma in implantology in 2014. We’re rated 4.9★ from 250+ Google reviews.
Replacing a missing tooth, step by step
Knowing what’s coming makes the whole thing easier. Here’s how it works at 123 Dental.
1. A consultation and your options
First, we look at the gap and the teeth around it. Then we explain every option, including the ones that aren’t implants, with the costs, so you can choose what suits your mouth and your budget.
2. Planning in the practice
Implant cases are planned in-house. Dr Poli uses digital planning, 3D printing and in-house milling to ensure his work is accurate. That means fewer trips across town and one team who knows your case.
3. The implant
A dental implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace the missing tooth root. It then supports a crown, bridge or denture.
4. Your final crown
Implant treatment usually takes 3 to 6 months from consultation to final crown. We’ll map out each stage with you before you begin, so you know what to expect at every step.
Spreading the cost
Since an implant is a considered purchase, Zip Money plans let you spread the cost over up to 12 months, interest-free. We’re also a preferred provider for BUPA, HBF, Medibank, HCF and NIB, and we’ll help you claim on the spot with HICAPS. See our payment options.
Every option on the table: implants, bridges, dentures
An implant isn’t the only answer, and it isn’t right for everyone. That’s why we explain all three, side by side.
Implants
An implant replaces the root of the missing tooth and supports a crown. It usually takes 3 to 6 months from consultation to final crown. Learn more about dental implants.
Bridges
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth to the teeth next to it, or to implants. It usually takes two to three visits over a few weeks.
Dentures
Full or partial dentures can replace one tooth or many, and implants can help hold a denture in place where suitable. They usually take 4 to 8 weeks, including fittings and adjustments.
Specialist input for complex cases
Our team includes a specialist prosthodontist, a registered dental specialist in replacing and restoring teeth. This way, more complex cases can be planned here too.
Consultations that fit your week
Planning a replacement tooth starts with a consultation. We are open from 8am on weekdays, until 7pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and on Saturday mornings (fortnightly), 8am to 1pm, so you can come in without taking a day off.
Payment plans for larger treatment
Implants, bridges and dentures are a bigger investment. Zip Money plans can spread the cost over up to 12 months, interest-free.
Health funds claimed on the spot
We are a preferred provider for BUPA, HBF, Medibank, HCF and NIB. Bring your health fund card and we will help you claim on the spot with HICAPS.
