Our Services
A Full Spectrum of Dental Excellence
From routine preventative care to advanced implant surgery and smile design — all delivered by a team with over 30 years of combined experience in Pretoria.
General Dentistry
Comprehensive examinations with a holistic approach, digital X-rays, state-of-the-art restorations, extractions, crowns, bridges, root canal treatment, and full or partial dentures.
Our general dentistry protocols emphasise minimal intervention — preserving natural tooth structure wherever possible while using the latest materials for lasting, aesthetic results.
Preventative Dentistry
Professional oral hygiene education by trained hygienists, children's gentle introduction to dentistry via cleaning, sealing, and fluoride treatment. All patients receive six-monthly SMS recall alerts.
We believe prevention is the most cost-effective dental care. Our proactive recall system ensures patients stay on track and problems are caught early — reducing long-term treatment needs.
Dental Implants
Minimally invasive surgical and prosthetic implant placement with a notably low 5% failure rate. A titanium screw osseo-integrates over approximately six months before the final crown is fitted.
Dr Immelman manages both the surgical and prosthetic phases in-house, ensuring full continuity of care and optimal aesthetic outcomes without the need for external referrals.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Smile design combining the latest whitening (Zoom system), veneering, and crowning techniques. Both in-chair and take-home tooth whitening options are available.
Our smile design process balances proportion, symmetry, and natural shade to achieve results that look genuinely organic — not artificially bright or clinical.
Periodontal Treatment
Diagnosis and treatment of gum disease — from scaling and root planing to advanced periodontal therapy. Healthy gums are the essential foundation of every lasting dental result.
Our hygienist team works in close co-ordination with Dr Immelman to assess periodontal health at every visit and implement targeted maintenance plans to halt disease progression.
Orthodontic Treatment
Corrective treatment to align teeth and improve bite function for children and adults alike. Modern solutions offer effective results with improved comfort and aesthetics.
Each case is assessed individually. We recommend the most effective alignment approach based on age, severity, and patient preference — prioritising both function and appearance.
Maxillo-facial Surgery
Specialist surgical care involving the jaw, facial structures, and oral tissues. Managed to the highest clinical standards with expert referral pathways where required.
Where specialist intervention is needed, we co-ordinate the full care pathway — from initial diagnosis and referral through post-surgical follow-up — ensuring no patient falls through the gaps.
Sedation Dentistry
Safe, monitored sedation for anxious patients or those requiring complex, lengthy procedures. Enables thorough treatment in fewer visits without discomfort or dental fear.
Our sedation options allow patients who would otherwise avoid the dentist to receive the full care they need in a calm, supported environment — often completing multiple treatments in one session.
Amalgam Filling Replacement
Safe removal and replacement of old silver amalgam fillings with modern, tooth-coloured composite or ceramic restorations for improved aesthetics and a mercury-free smile.
Replacement is performed using safe amalgam removal protocols. New restorations are shade-matched precisely to your natural tooth colour for an invisible, seamless result.

CEREC CAD/CAM One-Appointment Crowns
Using advanced CEREC technology, Dr Immelman designs, mills, and fits a precision porcelain crown in a single visit — eliminating the need for temporary crowns, messy impressions, and return appointments. Computer-aided design meets clinical precision and aesthetic excellence.
Dr Justus Immelman Dental Practice has been a trusted pillar of Pretoria's dental community since 1952, when it was founded by Dr Phillip Immelman. Today, Dr Justus Immelman leads a dedicated team with over 30 years of combined experience — honouring that founding legacy while embracing the very latest in dental science and technology.
Our philosophy is straightforward: "First-world service with attention to detail and complete patient satisfaction." Every patient — from a child's very first visit to a complex cosmetic or implant case — is treated with the same careful, unhurried approach using the latest equipment, techniques, and materials.
Embassy Accredited
Accredited diplomatic dental care provider for Pretoria-based embassies since 1985.
Family Practice
Three generations of Pretoria families have trusted us for comprehensive dental care.
Latest Technology
State-of-the-art equipment and materials including same-day CEREC porcelain crowns.
We invest in the latest dental technology so you receive faster, more precise, and more comfortable care — without compromising on quality.
CEREC CAD/CAM Technology
One-Appointment Crown
Traditional crown treatment requires two appointments and weeks of waiting with a temporary crown. With our CEREC CAD/CAM system, we scan, design, mill, and fit your porcelain crown in a single visit — same-day, permanent, and precisely fitted using computer-aided design and manufacturing. No messy impressions. No temporary crown. No second appointment.
✓ Digital scan — no putty impressions ✓ Milled from solid porcelain ✓ Perfect colour-matched fit ✓ Walk in, walk out same day
Digital X-Rays
Our digital radiography delivers instant, high-resolution diagnostic images with up to 90% less radiation than conventional film X-rays — safer for patients, faster for diagnosis, and shareable instantly for referrals.
Modern Surgical Equipment
From minimally invasive implant placement to precision extractions designed to preserve bone structure, every procedure uses current techniques and materials that meet first-world clinical standards — the same standard expected by the diplomatic community we serve.
State-of-the-Art Materials
We use only the latest internationally proven filling materials, porcelain, and implant systems. Our restorations are chosen for long-term durability, natural aesthetics, and biocompatibility — because your results should last.

Patient Information
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before your visit — from insurance and implants to same-day crowns and embassy referrals.
Yes, the practice works with most major South African medical aids. Patients are advised to confirm their specific plan's dental benefits directly with their scheme prior to treatment. Our reception team is experienced in assisting with claims and can provide itemised accounts for submission.
CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is advanced in-practice technology that allows us to design, mill, and fit a precision porcelain crown in a single appointment. There is no need for a temporary crown or a return visit — your permanent, tooth-coloured restoration is completed while you wait, using the very latest materials.
Implant treatment is performed using minimally invasive surgical techniques and covers both the surgical and prosthetic phases in-house. After a titanium screw is placed in the jaw following extraction, a period of approximately six months allows for osseo-integration — the natural bonding of the implant to the bone — before the final crown is fitted. Our practice maintains a low 5% implant failure rate.
Sedation options are discussed with each patient individually based on their medical history, anxiety level, and the procedure planned. Patient safety and comfort are our highest priorities. Please inform our team of any medical conditions or chronic medications at the time of booking so that we can ensure the most appropriate and safest approach for your care.
Yes. Since 1985, Dr Justus Immelman Dental Practice has been an accredited provider of dental services to local embassies in Pretoria.
