Implants are an increasingly popular method for replacing missing teeth.
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that a we place into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.
Dental implants can be an ideal option for people with good general and oral health who have lost one or more teeth due to dental disease or injury.
Implants provide you with artificial teeth that can look and feel just like your own. Under favourable conditions, correctly planned and fitted by the dentist and with diligent patient care, implants can last many many years.
We consult with you to determine where and how your implant should be placed. Depending on your specific condition and the type of implant chosen, we will create a treatment plan tailored to meet your needs.
Replacing a Single Tooth If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace it. A dental implant replaces both the lost natural tooth and its root.
Replacing Several Teeth If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them. Dental implants will replace both your lost natural teeth and some of the roots.
Replacing All of Your Teeth If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them. Dental implants will replace both your lost natural teeth and some of the roots.
