Missing a tooth doesn’t mean you have to wait for a solution. With immediate implants, we place the implant right after extraction, restoring both beauty and function quickly. This treatment offers a permanent solution that feels just like your natural teeth, without the need for multiple visits. Enjoy a smooth recovery and regain confidence with a smile that’s restored in record time.
Immediate implants offer a convenient and effective solution for replacing a missing tooth. At Greenvale Dental House, by The Dental House Group, we place a titanium implant directly after a tooth extraction, ensuring a permanent solution in just one visit. The implant serves as a replacement root, providing stability and support for a custom-made crown.
This treatment not only restores the function of your tooth but also helps preserve the integrity of your jawbone, preventing bone loss that often occurs after tooth loss. Immediate implants provide both aesthetic and functional benefits, enabling you to smile confidently and comfortably without the waiting period associated with traditional implant procedures.

This has to be the best dental practice I have ever been to (and I’ve been to a few over the years)! Have attended both Sunbury and most recently the Bacchus Marsh Dental House. All the Staff are wonderful. I see Dr. Fong and he is amazing. He makes me feel very comfortable and at ease. He is very personable and always make me laugh. Thanks also to the lovely Hannah who assisted when I had my recent procedure done.
Not just any old dental clinic, made to feel right at Home as soon as I walked in the door. Friendly and caring team and love the color purple throughout!
Had my first visit to Sunbury Dental House last week – they promise a gentle approach and having a crown prep done by Dr Fong after cracking a tooth, I’ve felt comfortable during my dental appointment. Being able to watch a movie during treatment certainly helped! Looking forward to my return visit in a few weeks!
After hearing numerous excellent reports about this clinic, I decided to visit myself. I must say that it was a fantastic experience, even better than I expected! The clinic is bright and modern, the receptionists and nurses are friendly and help to put you at ease. The dentist is gentle, knowledgeable and explains everything so thoroughly!
I highly recommend this clinic!
Have been to this dentist several times now and each time i have received professional and friendly service. Dr Claire is amazing! She is very gentle and thorough and has never recommended unnecessary treatments. The staff here are genuine and caring, as evident by the many highly rated reviews.
Great dental practice. Fong is a very experience dentist acquiring all my dental needs and the nurse emily helped my dentist experience a comfortable one. Highly recommend them.
Great staff. Fong was very gentle, personable and skilled. They take the drama out of going to the dentist. I am happy to recommend Sunbury Dental House to anyone.
I just want to say a very big thank you to Claire and her team for the excellent work l received on my recent visits to the clinic after a very bad experience. I can not recommend them highly enough for fitting me in asap especially losing a front tooth when l was out to dinner the night before. They went above and beyond and to attend to this disaster was unbelievable. I am so thankful that they were able to help and would not go anywhere else. So professional in everything they did especially as l am extremely nervous about dentists. Thank you again ??
Would recommend Dr. Fong and Caroline at Dental House, both Sunbury and Bacchus Marsh. Very friendly and welcoming. They ensure you feel comfortable and Dr. Fong has the best jokes! Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
It’s all about the client here! You are made to feel welcome and comfortable the second you walk in the door. They are forward thinking in dentistry which is a huge positive for the client. Well done to all
The immediate implant procedure is typically completed in one visit, with the entire process taking between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the case. At Greenvale Dental House in Greenvale, we use advanced technology to ensure the procedure is as efficient and comfortable as possible. The implant is placed into the jawbone, and a temporary restoration is often placed at the same time, allowing you to leave the office with a new tooth immediately.
While the procedure is relatively quick, the overall process from implant placement to final restoration can take several months. The healing time allows the implant to properly fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration, ensuring a secure and long-lasting result.
A bone graft may be required if there’s insufficient bone density in the jaw to support the immediate implant. The success of the implant depends on the bone’s ability to securely hold the titanium post. If your jawbone has experienced deterioration, a bone graft can be performed either at the time of the implant placement or in a separate procedure before the implant.
At Greenvale Dental House, our team conducts a comprehensive evaluation using advanced imaging techniques to determine if a bone graft is necessary. We tailor our treatment approach to ensure the best possible outcome, prioritising your comfort and dental health.
The healing time for an immediate implant varies, but typically, it takes about 3 to 6 months for the implant to fully integrate with the bone in a process called osseointegration. During this period, the titanium post fuses with the surrounding bone, creating a secure foundation for your new tooth.
While the healing process occurs gradually, you’ll be able to return to normal activities fairly quickly after the procedure. At Greenvale Dental House, we monitor your progress during follow-up visits, ensuring the implant heals as expected and providing support for any questions or concerns you may have.
Most patients return to light activities within a few days. Swelling, bruising, and tenderness are normal and gradually improve, but full healing can take several months.
