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.
