All About Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the options for those with missing teeth. They are a good option for many reasons. They provide a permanent solution to missing teeth, have an excellent function, and look like natural teeth.
Those who choose dental implants may prefer them to other options like dentures, denture implants, and bridges. Dental implants may seem new because they are widely offered but have been around since 1978 so they have become a standard procedure for many dental offices, including ours.

The Difference in an Implant

01 icon

Implants are different from other options primarily because they are permanent. Unlike dentures, you don't take them out. One of the advantages of an implant is that you can treat it like a natural tooth.

02 icon

It looks and feels like a natural tooth and that provides a lot of confidence and physical benefits to those with missing teeth. Bridges are artificial teeth as well that fill a gap left by a missing tooth. They are also permanent solutions to dental problems.

However, the way a bridge is installed is different from an implant. A bridge requires crowns or braces on the teeth on either side of the gap to hold the bridge in place. An implant can stand in place on its own.

Dental Implants

Dental implants and denture implants have one thing in common is that they are both artificial teeth. However, the way they stay in the mouth is what makes them different. Dental implants sit on a post inserted into the jawbone while denture implants are secured by clasps attached to the jawbone or surrounding teeth.

Denture Implants

Dental implants feel more natural than denture implants, although both provide complete function and look natural in the smile.

Implant Cost

The biggest concern of many patients is the cost of dental implants. It is more expensive than other options and not all insurance covers the cost. We work with insurance for coverage and also offer a wide range of financial options to help you budget this type of procedure. Schedule a consult today to see if a dental implant can help you get your teeth function and smile back!

Dental Implants FAQs

What are dental implants?
Dental implants are permanent artificial teeth. They come with a crown as the tooth and a metal screw as a post that fits into the jawbone.
Why choose implants over dentures or bridges?
Implants are stable because they are fixed. They act as permanent teeth. Dentures can slip and must be removed for cleaning and at night. Bridges need nearby teeth for support.
How long have dental implants been used?
The technique was developed in the late 1970s but the popularity of dental implants has risen in the past few years, making them more well-known.
How much does an implant cost?
Implants cost more than other options. The cost varies on the individual case, whether they need bone grafts or other medical procedures first. Typically, the cost in Canada starts at $1,000 for a single dental implant with the average between $3,000 and $5,000.
Is a consultation required before getting an implant?
Yes, we require a consultation to determine if you are eligible for this procedure. We also look at the costs and insurance.
