Dental Implants

Are you missing a tooth or teeth and would like to have it replaced? Dental implants are an optimal solution that allow you to eat and smile with comfort and confidence.

The loss of even a single tooth can have a significant impact on an individual’s confidence and well-being. It affects one’s ability to eat certain foods and it can result in further tooth loss due to movement of the remaining teeth.

Dental implants are used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are a superior alternative to bridges and dentures. Implants are not only extremely durable, but they look, feel and function just like natural teeth.

A dental implant is a titanium screw that is surgically placed into the jaw where it acts as an artificial “root” to secure the replacement tooth. A few months after the dental implant is placed in the jaw and is securely attached to the bone, a custom-made crown is attached to the dental implant for a complete natural looking tooth replacement .  A denture can also be attached to implants for superb retention and function.

If you are missing one or more teeth, call to schedule a complimentary consultation at the Fernbank Dental Centre to determine if a dental implant is the functional and aesthetic smile solution for you.
