Learn more about what dental implants can do for your smile below:
Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth, from one to many. An implant is a small titanium post that a dentist will surgically insert into the jawbone. The bone heals and fuses with the post in place of the natural tooth root, creating a solid anchor for a restoration like a crown or dental bridge.
Dental implants are a better option than implant-supported dentures.

Dental Implants FAQs
Are teeth implants permanent?
Dental implants are permanent dental restoration because the implant itself fuses with the jawbone. This is what makes them quite durable. Some patients have dental implants for their lifetime. In general, dentists consider them a permanent option, unlike other restoration solutions.
Will teeth implants help my gums?
Rather than saying that dental implants will help your gum, the reverse is truer. Dental implants require healthy gums because the gums need to support the implant post. Dental implants do help your jawbone, though, because they stimulate the bone to grow as natural tooth roots do. Without that stimulation, the bone can deteriorate.
How are dental implants fitted?
Dental implants are fitted in a two-step process. First is the surgical portion, where the dentist places the implant post (the part that acts as a tooth root) into the jawbone. Then this post will attach to the bone to create a healthy, stable foundation.
Once that occurs, it’s time for phase two. This is where Kildaire Family & Cosmetic Dentistry comes in! We’ll create a custom implant restoration that matches the appearance of your other teeth to place on top of the post and complete the procedure.
