Affordable Dental Implants Blainville
Missing teeth keeping you from chewing properly? Not happy with the way the gap in your smile looks because of that lost tooth? Need a second opinion? We’d be glad to help you decide if implants are the right solution for you.
Are you seeking solutions for missing teeth with dental implants in Blainville? Tooth loss is commonly due to dental decay/cavities, periodontal disease, or injury. For such instances, there’s an obvious need for the restoration of both masticatory function and esthetics. Historically, replacement of missing teeth was limited to dental crown and bridge therapy or with complete and partial dentures. However, research and studies have shown that dental implants offer reliable functional and esthetic longevity.
Options for the replacement of missing teeth:
Dental Bridge
A dental bridge is 2 or more crowns on either side of a missing tooth or teeth, which are linked together by one or more false teeth as a single unit. Natural teeth must be prepared (reduced in height and width) in order to receive the dental bridge.
Partial or Complete Denture
A partial or complete denture is a removable appliance used to replace multiple missing teeth. It consists of a structure made entirely of acrylic, or of acrylic on a metal framework. Partial dentures are usually kept in place with the aid of metallic or acrylic clasps (arm-like structures) that hug one or more of the remaining natural teeth.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small titanium screw-like structures used to replace missing teeth. They are placed into the jawbones and act as a foundation, much like artificial tooth roots, the support of single crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Our dental clinic in Blainville will be glad to judiciously review the entire process of implant placement with you.
Some of the advantages of dental implants include:
- They most closely mimic a person’s natural dentition, both esthetically and functionally.
- They preserve bone mass in the jaw, preserving facial features by preventing any further bone and tooth loss.
- They maximally restore chewing capacity and forces.
- They do not impact speech or taste.
- Unlike complete or partial dentures, they are not bulky and unstable and do not require the roof of the mouth to covered. There is no need for denture adhesives
- Unlike fixed bridges, natural teeth on either side of the missing tooth/teeth do not need to be prepared, which may in turn illicit pain and sensitivity and the need for further treatments.
How Successful are Dental Implants?
Implant dental surgery can have a success rate between 95-98%, making them a reliable option for those who have had dental challenges. It is important to note that proper care of dental implants, including brushing, flossing and regular dental exams, is essential to their longevity and a healthy smile.
What Is the Process for Getting Dental Implant Surgery?
Dental implant surgery can take several months to complete and involves multiple steps and phases. Once proper planning is completed, the titanium implant is positioned in the jawbone. When adequate healing has occurred and the dental implant has properly integrated into the the bone, the tooth portion or crown can be fabricated. Care is taken to properly design a crown that will blend in size, shape, and color with the adjacent teeth.
