Dental Implants
The ultimate solution for your missing tooth.
Dental Implants Labrador
Dental implants are an advanced restorative solution that involves replacing a missing tooth with an artificial replacement.
Dental implants can be used to replace one or more missing teeth as a result of severe tooth damage, decay, or trauma to the mouth. They are created to look and function just as your natural teeth would and can correct numerous functionality inabilities such as chewing or bite problems or a minor speech impediment.
Made from strong, durable titanium, implants are surgically inserted into your jaw to serve as the foundation of your dental implant with a porcelain tooth (crown) attached, and an abutment sitting between the implant and crown as the connector.
The integration of an implant generally takes three months, during which a temporary tooth can be provided if needed.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants pose many benefits to a patient and their smile. For example, dental
implants:
- May enhance your smile and appearance.
- Are easy to care for (simply brush and floss as you would your real teeth).
- Are not removable (unlike dentures), which makes chewing easier
- Are stable, secure and comfortable.
- Preserve the healthy enamel of your natural teeth, as they’re independent from the neighbouring teeth.
- Are impossible to decay
- Can last a lifetime if properly maintained and cared for.
Single Tooth Dental Implants
Single-tooth dental implants are used to replace a missing tooth or one that requires removal. The bone and implant take approximately three months to integrate, and a temporary tooth can be provided when necessary.
Multiple Tooth Implants
If you have a few missing teeth in a row, we can place dental implants to support them all.
For example, if there are three missing teeth in a row, we will often only place two implants to support the three.
Full Denture Stabilisation
Dental implants can be used to stabilize full lower dentures and avoid using adhesives.
Full Denture Replacement
Dental implants are an effective alternative to dentures. They can support both full upper and lower dentures to restore a mouth with no teeth.
Caring for dental implants
Dental implants are designed to last a lifetime, however, one of the only reasons they may fail is due to poor oral hygiene. It is important to brush and floss at least twice a day, as you would for your natural teeth. It is also necessary to visit your dentist every six months for regular cleaning and examination
Are dental implants the right treatment for me?
During your first consultation, your dentist will check that your gums are healthy and that you have sufficient jawbone to hold the implant.
It is important that your overall health is good and that you don’t smoke prior to the
procedure.
