Implant Dentistry
A natural tooth and dental implant are very similar, both have a crown (the part you see in the mouth when you smile), and a root to hold the tooth in the jaw (under the gums). A dental implant is an artificial tooth with a root made of a titanium screw. The implant is gently surgically integrated into the jaw bone and is less invasive than a tooth extraction. Dental implants are the golden standard of care for tooth replacement and are great options to help advance your oral health.
Types of Dental Implants
Windsor Dental Center offers the following types of dental implant services to improve your oral hygiene.
Dental Implant Bridge
An implant supported bridge is very similar to a regular bridge, but is rather supported by implants in comparison to a natural tooth. A bridge is made by connecting two implant crowns across the area of where you are missing teeth. Dental implants are used if you don’t have enough teeth to support a bridge, or when several or all teeth are missing. A custom bridge is fabricated. There are several excellent bridge options that can fit your needs. Book a free consultation appointment with Windsor Dental Centre to seek all options for you from a professional.
Implant Supported Dentures
Denture supported dentures are the right option for anyone who seeks denture treatment. Traditional dentures rest on the gums, where implant supported dentures are anchored by implants which provide optimal stability and comfort. Implant supported dentures snap onto attachments and provide a more reliable fit. Implant supported dentures reduce slipping, improve chewing, taste and comfort.
Why Us?
If you have missing or deteriorating teeth, you will also feel uncomfortable, in pain, and less confident. Thanks to the development of dental implants, replacing missing teeth is now more straightforward and aesthetically pleasing than ever! With dental implants, you can have a replacement tooth that performs as well as (if not better than) the natural one.
Your smile, dental hygiene, and life quality all improve as a result of this life-changing operation. Our dentists at Windsor Dental Centre provide implant dentistry for patients needing a long-lasting, aesthetic tooth replacement solution.
General Dental Implant FAQs
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed in the jawbone to act as a new root for a missing tooth. A custom crown is then attached to this post.
Is getting a dental implant painful?
The procedure is typically minimally invasive, often with less discomfort than a tooth extraction. Local anesthesia is used to ensure your comfort.
What are the top benefits of dental implants?
They look, feel, and function like natural teeth, help preserve jawbone health, prevent other teeth from shifting, and provide a durable, long-lasting solution.
Will my implant look like a real tooth?
Yes. The visible part of the implant, the crown, is custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding natural teeth for a seamless look.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution and can last a lifetime.
Dental Implant Benefits FAQs
How does an implant save my jawbone?
The implant post stimulates the jawbone just like a natural tooth root, preventing the bone loss that normally occurs when a tooth is missing.
What if I'm missing several teeth in a row?
An implant-supported bridge can be used. This involves placing two or more implants to anchor a permanent bridge, restoring multiple teeth without harming adjacent ones.
Can implants make my dentures more secure?
Absolutely. Implant-supported dentures are anchored to implants, which prevents them from slipping or clicking. This greatly improves comfort, stability, and chewing power.
Can I eat all my favorite foods with implants?
Yes. Because implants are securely fused to your jawbone, they restore full chewing power, allowing you to eat with confidence.
