When it comes to performing dental implant surgery, there are currently no mandated requirements governing the amount of training a general dentist must complete before placing dental implants. In some cases, a dentist may undertake a short 1–2 day course and begin placing implants with limited experience. However, research indicates that clinical experience plays a significant role in treatment outcomes.

Dr David Norcross and Dr David O'Dowling have each undertaken extensive postgraduate education in implant dentistry, completing advanced programs and clinical residencies over many years.

Dr David Norcross graduated from Leeds University with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery. He went on to complete a one-year Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry through the Global Institute for Dental Education (gIDE) in collaboration with the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). He has also completed clinical residencies at the Malo Clinic in Melbourne and Portugal — the birthplace of the All-on-4® technique — gaining advanced training in full-arch rehabilitation.

Dr David O'Dowling graduated from University College Cork in Ireland and completed a Master of Science in Oral Implantology at Goethe Dental School in Germany. He also holds Diplomate status with the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry, a qualification that permits specialist implant registration in the United States.

Early access to superannuation on compassionate grounds is subject to strict eligibility criteria and approval by the ATO. During your consultation, we can discuss whether treatment may meet relevant requirements. To proceed with funding, you can apply directly to the ATO or we can connect you with a third-party provider such as Super Health Ensemble.

We encourage our clients to speak with their financial advisor before committing to third-party funding. Learn more about Accessing Your Super for All-on-4 Dental Implants.

All-on-4® is a full-arch dental implant treatment used to replace all missing or failing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Rather than replacing each tooth individually, a complete bridge of teeth is supported by four strategically placed dental implants.

The technique was developed by Nobel Biocare and involves placing two implants towards the front of the jaw and two implants towards the back at an angle. This approach can often maximise the use of available bone and may reduce or eliminate the need for bone grafting in suitable patients.

All-on-4® has become one of the most widely used full-mouth dental implant solutions worldwide and has demonstrated high long-term success rates of up to 98% in clinical studies*.

The term All-on-4® is a registered trademark of Nobel Biocare and specifically refers to the treatment concept when used with Nobel Biocare implants.

Today, many clinicians use similar treatment protocols with four, five, six or more implants depending on the patient's anatomy, bone quality and treatment goals. As a result, you may also hear terms such as All-on-X, which refers more broadly to full-arch dental implant treatment supported by a customised number of implants.

For patients requiring full-mouth rehabilitation, the number of implants used is less important than selecting the treatment approach best suited to their individual needs.

It’s completely normal to feel anxious about dental treatment. Our team offers a range of anaesthetic and sedation options to help you feel comfortable and supported throughout your procedure.

Many patients have dental implant treatment or wisdom tooth surgery comfortably under local anaesthesia, which numbs the treatment area while you remain awake.

For patients undergoing more complex procedures — including full mouth dental implants (All-on-4) treatment — or for those who have experienced dental anxiety in the past, additional options may be appropriate. These include:

• Local anaesthesia
• Oral sedation
• Sleep dentistry (IV sedation or twilight sedation)
• General anaesthesia

Our dentists work closely with qualified specialist anaesthetists to provide IV sedation at our clinic. For patients requiring general anaesthesia, procedures are performed at Southbank Day Surgery in a fully accredited hospital setting.

If you have private health insurance with hospital cover, hospital and anaesthetist fees may be partially covered depending on your policy. For patients without private health insurance, IV sedation at our clinic may be a suitable alternative. Where eligible, a portion of anaesthetist fees may attract a Medicare rebate.

During your consultation, we will discuss your medical history, concerns, and treatment needs to determine the most appropriate and safe option for you.

A dental implant is a tiny titanium post (a biocompatible material) that fuses to the jaw bone though a process called osseointegration. The integrated implant then acts as an anchor to which your dentist can attach an abutment and crown or several abutments connected to a fixed implant bridge to replace several missing teeth or all missing teeth. Dental implants can last a very long time with good oral hygiene.

Yes, we accept all health funds. At Perth Dental Implant Centre, we are also a HBF Members Plus dentist.

Following your consultation, we can check your available rebate through our HICAPS system or provide the information you need to contact your health fund directly. Depending on your cover, a portion of your dental treatment may be claimable through your private health insurance. Staging treatment over time may help you make the most of your available entitlements.

At PDIC, treatment recommendations are determined independently based on your clinical needs, rather than by any commercial agreement with a health fund. This allows our team to focus on delivering care tailored to you, with treatment planning guided by clinical assessment, quality materials, and best-practice standards.
