Dental Implants That Feel Like Your Own Teeth
When a tooth goes missing, it can affect how you chew, how you speak, and how you feel. Dental implants offer a natural-looking, long-term solution that helps restore your confidence and oral function—with results that look and feel like your real teeth.
A Secure, Long-Term Solution
Dental implants replace missing roots with titanium posts that support a custom crown, bridge, or denture. This provides stability without affecting neighbouring teeth. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, implants are designed to last for many years—helping preserve your jawbone and support your overall oral health.
What To Expect With Dental Implants
Getting a dental implant is a multi-step process. After a consultation and imaging, a small post is surgically placed into your jawbone. Healing usually takes a few months, during which the implant integrates with your bone. Once healing is complete, a custom restoration is placed on top to match the rest of your smile.
Are Dental Implants Right For You?
Dental implants may be an option if you’re missing one or more teeth and have healthy gums and sufficient bone. We’ll walk you through every step, answer your questions, and make sure you’re comfortable with your treatment plan. Your care, your pace.
FAQ
Have Questions? We’ve Got Answers.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last 10–25 years or longer. Regular checkups and good hygiene are key.
Is the implant procedure painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, often less than a tooth extraction. Sedation options are available.
Can I eat normally with implants?
Yes—once healed, implants function like natural teeth. You’ll be able to chew comfortably and eat a full variety of foods.
Do I need a bone graft?
Not always. A bone graft is only needed if your jawbone isn’t thick or strong enough to support an implant. We’ll assess that during your consultation.
