Dental Implants From Your Dentists in Ajax and Whitby

When you’re missing one or more teeth, at Dentistry On Taunton in Ajax and Whitby, we know that dental implants may be the ideal solution for restoring your smile and confidence.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are made up of three parts: A small titanium post that is inserted into the jawbone to act as an anchor for artificial tooth, an abutment (an attachment) that’s placed on top of the implant to hold the artificial in place, and a dental crown, which looks and feels like a natural tooth, and restores function and aesthetics to a patient’s smile.

What are the benefits of dental implants?

Dental implants offer a permanent solution that looks and functions like natural teeth. They can significantly improve your quality of life by enabling you to eat, speak, and smile confidently. People with missing or damaged teeth might also opt for dental implants to restore their self-esteem and enjoy better oral health.

Who is a good candidate for dental implants?

While most patients who are missing one or more teeth and have good oral and overall health are likely to be candidates for dental implants, it’s important to note that they should also have diligent dental hygiene habits and adequate jawbone density in order for implant placement to be successful. Our team will be happy to examine your unique situation and offer recommendations based on your needs.
