If you are a patient in Downtown Toronto and wish that you could replace the teeth that are missing when you smile, then you should stop by Rusholme Family Dentistry to speak with a dental professional near you. We provide premier care and can replace teeth using dental implants that look natural and fit into the mouth comfortably.
Dental implants consist of three parts: a post, an abutment, and a crown. The post is inserted into the mouth, and then the abutment is put onto it so that the crown can be placed on the post and stay securely in place. This is an excellent option for patients that do not wish to deal with dentures or other appliances that are less permanent and may break or become loose. With proper oral maintenance, your implants are secure.
The typical dental implantation surgery involves the dentist placing a titanium post into the jawbone. This post will act as the replacement root of the tooth and will need to heal over the next couple of months. You will receive detailed instructions as to how to care for the implant until it has fully healed and a crown or some other appliance can be placed in the mouth. During the healing process, the post bonds with the jawbone and becomes stable in the mouth.
Your dentist will need to assess your oral health as well as other factors to determine what kind of dental implant is best for you. If you qualify for a dental implant, there are several types of prosthetics that can be applied. For patients missing one or more teeth, an implant-supported bridge is a good option. If you are missing a full arch of teeth, implant-supported dentures may be right for you. If a single tooth, or multiple teeth, are missing from the mouth, then individual implants may be recommended with crowns attached to replace teeth.
