Complete Your Smile with Dental Implants in Mississauga

 

A lost tooth represents a significant loss, but not an irreplaceable one. Dental implants are designed to simulate the same exact function as a normal tooth. If you think you need dental implants, come to Mississauga Dental Specialists. We can help you evaluate your oral health and help you decide whether dental implants are right for you.

 

The Facts of Dental Implants

Dental implants combine porcelain and ceramic crowns with titanium posts that fit into the empty spaces left behind by missing teeth. The result is a tight and secure fit that makes chewing, biting and speaking feel like normal. Implants can work on their own or can be paired with other dental treatments. Here are a few other applications of implants.

 

Mini-Dental Implants

Mini-dental implants are more affordable and smaller versions of normal implants. In addition, they fit next to smaller teeth easier.

 

Implant-Supported Dentures

Dentures need anchors to fit securely. Implants can act as those anchors, offering stability to a normal denture. This option works well for individuals with multiple missing teeth.

 

Implant-Supported Bridges

For those with only a few missing teeth, implant-supported bridges work well. Instead of using a natural tooth for an anchor, the bridge will use an implant.

 

The Implantation Process

The implantation process can take between three and six months. The steps include:

​

  1. Set up an appointment.

  2. During your first consultation, we will discuss your treatment needs and goals and provide you with options to improve your oral health.

  3. Later, we will take X-rays of your jaws and teeth. Using these, we will assess your suitability for the treatment. If you pass, we will schedule the treatment for your next appointment.

  4. Next, we begin treatment and have one of our specialists insert the implants during a surgery.

  5. Once we’ve finished surgery, we let the implants bond to the jaw during a healing period.

  6. After the healing period, we will fit any necessary dentures, bridges or crowns to finish the process.

 

You can also choose which brands of implants you would like. We carry brands such as Straumann, Nobel Biocare® and Dentsply. Feel free to ask us further questions about this procedure.
