After, I agreed to having two dental implants, after a deliberation process n discussion, I knew the process would be in stages
1) the investigation into the state of my gums n bone structure to determine if implants will be a viable alternative, overseen by the gentle n kind Dr Adrian
2) the actual implant being inserted but Dr Tina Choo
I was impressed by the professionalism, knowledge n skill of Dr Tina in dealing with the unexpected.... She found one section of the bone softer than ideal. However, the remedy was found almost instantly. This is testimony to Dr Tina's supreme and thorough Knowledge in her chosen field.. I was surprised at how painless it was
as Dr Choo's precision in drilling avoided nerves. Even after the anesthetic wore off, disprin was all it took to keep the pain in check.
3) post surgical care
Melissa the hygienist , under instruction from Dr Tina, followed up.. Melissa was methodical n emphasised the need to minimise gum infection
4) Review by Dr Tina
Checked on the healing process n set date for the crowns
5) the crowns placed in position on top of the implants.
Now I wait for the final crowning glory, in June by Dr Adrian when measurements will be made to fit the two crowns on the implants. So....
Thank you to the team in The Perth central clinic for making the whole process so pain free and worry free as they have truly demonstated that patient interest and need are paramount .

I am in receipt of a part Aged Pension and had first believed that the cost of 2 implants, an estimate of $12000 plus, (conservative estimate) too expensive! Luckily for me, I decided to contact Perth central dental centre, and after emails to Katie,offered a FREE consult . NOW I am in the process of getting 2 implants to replace my back teeth.. WHY?
To understand why I changed my mind, read on.
Dr Adrian Sue gave me a FREE consult and explained to me the process, printed out a treatment plan and told me they could work out a discount on the treatment. He gave an overview of what some of the complications might be, such as a lack of bone structure to attach the implant to and advised on the possible risks that could lead to more costs and how imperative it is to take a 3D scan to know more of the odds. THEN Dr Sue, advised I take the Treatment Plan to HBF to find out the exact REBATE. No other dental practice, I have seen in my 40 years in Australia has ever done this. It was the turning point for me. Now armed with a printed rebate on the treatment plan, and the offer of a discount, I was able to see exactly how much I would be out of pocket. This together with the uptodate information that the 3D scan provides I am able to make an informed decision. Thank you Dr Adrian Sue for opening the door to my greater enjoyment of food.
