Practice Philosophy
The Institute for Dental Implants is a purpose built practice specialising in teaching, placing and restoring dental implants established by Dr Christopher Ho.
On the cutting edge of dental implantology Dr Christopher Ho is a sought after implant dentist, international speaker and acclaimed teacher and lectures all over the world in the field of Implant Dentistry and Aesthetic Dentistry. A success rate of over 98% with long-term follow-up speaks for itself with thousands of teeth restored with denture, dental implant crowns and bridges, many in difficult cases involving extensive bone and soft tissue grafting.
This experience and expertise helps provide both the patient and referring dentist with the secure knowledge of being in safe and capable hands.
We understand how teeth play an important role in our overall quality of life, that they give us the ability to live life to its fullest by enabling us to speak clearly, enjoy eating and laugh with confidence. The importance of our teeth becomes apparent when we lose one or more of them or when their replacement in the form of conventional bridges or dentures affects our confidence.
Teeth can be lost due to many reasons, but there is no reason why you should live without your teeth, as dental implants can provide a completely safe way of replacing any number of missing teeth.
